To tell you the truth, I never thought that online grading could be so easy! I really like this website and will definitely be keeping it as a resource for myself. The website is extremely easy to navigate and easily allowed me to put students grades in. I liked that the website served as more than one purpose. While navigating the site, I also explored creating my own assignments and quizzes that I could share with and use with students in the future. It also provides a seating chart where the teacher can move the names of the students. This is helpful, because sometimes it is difficult to come up with a seating chart. I would absolutely recommend this site for classroom teachers to use.
I think that students and parents would find this website helpful. Students and parents are provided the access codes and can easily access important grades and assignments. I think that the website is easy to navigate and that parents would not become frustrated when searching for their child's grades. I like that the website had a 'discussions' spot where students and parents can leave messages for the teacher. This is a great way to easily keep in contact with the students and parents on a daily or weekly basis.
I would suggest having a tab where teachers could link classes together. For instance, many classrooms are inclusion classes. In upper elementary or middle school grades, sometimes the special education students are pulled into another classroom for part of the day. If teachers can have those students on the same grade book list as the other students, it would make life easier for the teachers. There would be less grade books to deal with. Also, there would be less confusion for the students as far as receiving access codes. Overall, I think that the website is wonderful and I will definitely be looking to use it in the future.
