IB Math AA grading software for method-heavy working
IB Math AA marking is not just answer checking. Gradenza is built for proof, algebra, calculus, functions, and multi-part questions where a student can earn marks through correct method even after an early slip. Teachers get AI grading, Follow Through logic, and reports that show exactly where marks were gained or lost.

Audience
Who this is for
Use this workflow when students need detailed feedback on mathematical process, not just final answers.
IB Math AA teachers assigning algebra, functions, calculus, vectors, or proof practice.
HL and SL tutors who need consistent marking between lessons.
Departments standardising grading reports across multiple AA classes.
Teachers who want to see whether errors are conceptual, algebraic, rounding-related, or carried forward.
Workflow
IB Math AA grading workflow
The AA workflow keeps the question, markscheme, student working, and teacher review in one grading report.
Students submit working
Students upload photos, scanned PDFs, or Drive files. Multi-page submissions stay tied to the correct question and student.
AI applies AA-style marking
The grader checks method, accuracy, reasoning, and dependencies. Follow Through logic protects valid later working based on a student own figure.
Review, release, and plan
Teachers skim amber flags, adjust if needed, then release feedback. The mastery map updates by topic and subtopic.
Benefits
Benefits for AA classes
AA students need feedback that explains whether their structure was sound. Gradenza turns marking into clearer next-step data.
Method marks are visible
Reports show where working earned marks, where the final answer failed, and when a later part remained valid through Follow Through.
Better revision targeting
Mastery maps show which AA subtopics are green, amber, red, or unattempted so teachers can assign revision with evidence.
Faster mock cycles
Mock exam mode lets departments grade full papers, review flags, and export reports without rebuilding spreadsheets.
Proof and trust
Why the marking is defensible
Gradenza is designed around human-readable grading reports, not hidden scores.
Built around IB markscheme behaviour
The grading model accounts for dependencies, own-figure logic, rounding tolerance, and multi-part questions.
Teacher review is expected
The report gives teachers a fast review surface. It does not remove professional judgement from high-stakes decisions.
Reports support moderation
Departments can compare question-level outcomes, topic weaknesses, and flagged grading decisions across classes.

FAQ
Common questions
Can Gradenza grade proof-style IB Math AA answers?
It can grade structured written working against a markscheme and surface reasoning decisions in the report. Teachers should still review complex proof responses before release.
Does Math AA use a different mastery map from Math AI?
Yes. Gradenza keeps class, exam, and subject context separate, so AA and AI mastery data do not merge.
Can it grade full IB Math AA mock exams?
Yes. Mock exam mode supports full-paper workflows where teachers upload or assign a paper, collect submissions, review AI grading, and export reports.
