Submitting Work Using Gradescope

Every registered student in COMP 135 will have an account created for them on Gradescope (a site that allows us to efficiently and securely grade student work), if they didn't already have an account, and will be given access to that site for homework submission purposes.

For each assignment, you will access the Gradescope site, and upload your work in either ZIP or PDF form (depending upon the assignment). For the latter, you will identify the page of the PDF that contains each answer. You can see a walkthrough video provided by Gradescope, and their site contains many helpful documents. Your TA's can also show you how things are done.

If you are new to Gradescope, make sure you know how to access and submit work before the time that the first such assignment is due, so that your work makes the posted (9:00 AM) deadline.

Lastly, note that Gradescope is also where you can submit re-grade requests, once your grades have been released so that you can see them. Use this only if you are reasonably certain that a mistake has been made in grading a question. Re-grade requests can only be made for one week, following the release of grades.
