Improve Gradesheet interface #905

Open ryanakca opened 6 years ago

ryanakca commented 6 years ago

When grading submissions via the Gradesheet interface, one can only enter one score score at a time, and you must wait for the change to be committed before moving onto the next problem. This causes (in my opinion, unbearably) large delays for those manually entering grades for many problems. Moreover, the feedback box gets in the way of entering grades in the next problem's cell. There is also no way to select the next cell for data entry, apart from clicking on it.

From a usability point of view, it would be much nicer if graders could simply tab between cells (or if there were key bindings to move between cells), and if the grade transmission/saving could happen in the background. This would save us a considerable amount of time (even half a second per problem, times a 8 problems, times 100 students, adds up to nearly seven minutes of waiting).

I wonder if this issue is addressed (in a different manner) with the new speedgrader upgrade. https://github.com/autolab/Autolab/releases/tag/v2.4.0
