AI grading for Microsoft Teams assignments
Download student files from Teams Assignments, upload them to EduRubric and get rubric-based scores and feedback. Review everything, then enter the grades in Teams yourself.
Yes, you can grade Microsoft Teams assignments with AI, but through file upload. EduRubric does not connect to Teams or send grades back to it. You download the student files from Teams Assignments, upload them, apply your rubric, review the drafted scores and feedback, then enter the grades in Teams manually.
Does EduRubric integrate with Microsoft Teams?
No. EduRubric has no native Microsoft Teams integration. Classes, assignments and submissions do not sync from Teams, and grades are not sent back. Teams works through a manual file upload workflow instead.
We would rather be clear about this than let you find out halfway through a grading session. If you need automatic sync and grade return, EduRubric offers it for Google Classroom and Canvas. If your school uses Teams, the upload workflow below still saves most of the marking time.
- What works: grading any files you download from Teams.
- What is manual: moving files in, and entering grades and feedback back in Teams.
- What you control: every score and comment, before anything is returned.
How do you get Teams files into EduRubric?
Download the submitted documents from Teams Assignments, then upload them to an assignment in EduRubric. Classes and submissions are not pulled in automatically, so you choose which files to grade.
- Download student files from Teams Assignments
- Create an assignment in EduRubric and upload the files
- Grade the whole batch in one pass
Can AI grade Teams assignments with a rubric?
Yes. Add your assignment instructions and rubric, or generate a rubric to review. EduRubric then drafts scores and feedback for each uploaded file, without connecting to Microsoft Teams.
- Use your own rubric on every submission
- Get a short comment explaining each score
- Edit anything before you use it
What is manual and what is automatic with Teams?
With Microsoft Teams, moving files in and returning grades are manual steps. The grading itself, applying your rubric and drafting feedback, is done by the AI. Google Classroom and Canvas automate more of the process.
| Step | Microsoft Teams | Google Classroom / Canvas |
|---|---|---|
| Getting work in | Download and upload files | Pulled in automatically |
| Applying your rubric | Done by the AI | Done by the AI |
| Drafting feedback | Done by the AI | Done by the AI |
| Reviewing results | You review and edit | You review and edit |
| Returning grades | You enter them in Teams | Synced back in one click |
What Microsoft Teams work can you grade?
You can grade essays, short answers, projects and reports submitted as PDFs, Word documents or images, including photos of handwritten work. The same rubric workflow applies to each type.
| Work type | How it is graded |
|---|---|
| Essays and writing | Rubric-based scores and comments on argument, evidence and structure |
| Short answers | Responses checked against your rubric or answer guidance |
| PDF and Word files | Documents read and graded against your criteria |
| Images and handwriting | Photos or scans read, then graded against the rubric |
| Projects | Graded across the criteria you set |
