Essay Grading Software For Teachers

asjk writes "Software to help teachers with grading has been around for sometime. This is true even with respect to grading essays.

"The people opposed see it dehumanizing the student's papers, putting them through some sort of mechanical, computerized system like the multiple choice tests. That's really not the case, because we're not talking about eliminating the human element. We're making the process more efficient."'"
