![]() I like being able to copy assignments to other classes I teach, which saves me time. This sort of account would not allow the user to change or alter any information in iGrade. I strongly recommend they create a "limited admin" user account so teachers can look up grades/attendance for all students in the school, especially when you are an adviser to a group of students for the year. The cons do get irritating though which is why I can't give it 5 stars. Overall, I am mostly satisfied with iGrade. But that is a minor problem compared to how much I like the overall program! I have been told they are working on that option, so it might be fixed for this year. Much of my grading involves inputting actual points on a quiz or study guide which can range from 10 points to 125 points, so it's difficult to have a built in number of points deduction for late work. As of the end of this past school year, iGradePlus hasn't included a percent off total score option, just a points off the score entered option for late work. Working up methods of deducting percentage off of total grades instead of point off of scores for grades. ![]() ![]() Anytime I have a question or have encountered a problem and email the company, I receive a quick response and the help I need to fix the problem. Instructors are able to set parameters and guidelines for grading, keep track of attendance and behavior, easily communicate with parents and students, and offer parents access to their children's grades. IGradePlus is used by all our instructors because it is easy to understand and set up and provides a fantastic array of record keeping and student management options. In addition, my experience with contacting the company has been wonderful! They respond immediately and work to fix whatever problem has been encountered, whether it was a parent access problem or something on the instructor side of the program. Parents of students have ready access to their children's information and communication between instructor and parent is really easy. iGradePlus is easy to set up each year and explain to my parent helpers. I teach about 100 students a week and have parent helpers input grades. My classes are once weekly middle school and high school college model classes designed for homeschoolers. We love it!Ĭreating progress reports/report cards was a little challenging to figure out at first and took me some extra time to learn but once I figured it out- they were great! I send print outs with district report cards. We seperated the subjects according to the categories from our district report card and now all we have to do at the end of the trimester is create the progress report and grades are done!! We also love that there is a student and parent portal! This makes it easy for parents and students to check on progress. My partner teacher and I use the same account and easily access and manage grades and multiple other features. I can seperate the two groups but can still assign assignments to all whenever I want. ![]() IgradePlus was wonderful in every way!! First of all, it was the first online gradebook I found that would work for a Dual Language class. You might love one feature but then find another aspect is lacking. There are a lot of online gradebooks to choose from. ![]()
