AB  - One of the inherent challenges with student learning is gauging the degree to which that learning is occurring in real-time. For this reason, the assignment of homework problems serves as one way to determine how well the student is comprehending the information provided during in-class lectures and following their own self-study of assigned reading materials.  The homework assignment also enables the professor to determine, to some degree, how well individual students and the class as a whole seem to be comprehending the information.
The task of grading homework assignments, however, can be extremely challenging and time-consuming, particularly if there are a significant number of students taking the course and if the type of problem makes it difficult to grade. For example, long-answer problem sets, common in most engineering courses, take considerably longer to review and grade than multiple choice or true-false-type questions.) As a case study, junior-level students taking the Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering course at the University of Idaho were required to self-grade their homework assignments and the professor and teaching assistant subsequently reviewed the appropriateness of each student’s self-grading and their individual level of effort. 
This paper will discuss: how this process was administered, the challenges associated with this approach, student feedback based on this form of assessment, lessons learned from both the perspective of the teaching assistant and the professor, and key administrative and organizational aspects that must be in place in order for homework assignment self-grading to be both effective for the student and manageable for the teaching assistant or professor.
