I am interested to know what text markup tools teachers find helpful in
digitally marking essays and other written assignments. Are there good tools
out there to facilitate English teacher marking?
I have developed a rudimentary Word template that allows teachers to select
text and easily insert comments based on 30 common syntax/grammar errors and
that subsequently allows the student to click on any comment and be directed
to web pages that comment on the error and how to fix it (example here:
http://www.bookhooks.com/runon.cfm?errornum=1).
I don't want to reinvent the wheel if robust software exists. Your
suggestions are welcome! And please hurry. I have 43 Gatsby essays in the
queue. :-)
Regards,
Adrian
