Is there a tool or a suggestion for ways AI can help faculty flag mistakes in grammar, spelling, and punctuation IN speedgrader so faculty do not have to point out these objective mistakes multiple times in a paper?
Hello @SarahWhite2 - to my knowledge there is no AI tool available that can scan papers uploaded to Canvas itself and mark them up for faculty directly within the SpeedGrader. But there are several online services such as this here: https://cograder.com/ai-essay-grader - and all these below. Some of these will integrate with Canvas.
And to provide an alternative, as we use Turnitin and Microsoft 365 I was able to request the Turnitin Draft Coach be installed onto our 365 account. This way students would be able to use the tool as part of the writing process. This approach helped reduce the errors for the students who took the time to use it.

It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
