As a Teacher. I have no Time to learn Programming - Streamline Assignment Marking with Python
Teaching is a demanding job that takes away the initiative to learn or improve in programming skills. I therefore decided to streamline some of my assignment marking using Python. The time I spent in developing the Python scripts could then be offset by the efficiency and accuracy I gained from the automation.
In this presentation, I will demonstrate how to populate student details into their individual Excel mark sheets, check marking mistakes, automate mark adjustment and collect data from individual mark sheets.
While the above automation can be achieved using standard tools offered by Microsoft by putting the programming logic into Excel formulae or Visual Basic for Application, I will argue using Python to separate the logic from data is a better approach in terms of programming practice and Cybersecurity.
