Teaching Tools

A set of tools that are used to help make writing and grading assignments easier, currently with a focus on Canvas-based grading.

Pieces

Interface Scripts

There are two direct scripts currently enabled:

1. generate_quiz.py: Generates quiz PDFs and canvas variations based on a range of input types and pre-defined problems
2. grader.py: Helps to streamline the grading flow. Currently only for exams but I'll be migrating code over shortly

Code Libraries

There are three main modules currently available in TeachingTools:

1. QuizGeneration: Helps generate quizzes both for canvas and paper and generate variations.
2. GradingAssistant: Helps streamline grading, currently just for exams but with more code transfer coming soon.
3. LMSInterface: Interfaces with LMSes (currently only canvas since it's what we use at CSUMB), and has some helpers for marking assignments missing.
