GradeBook for Windows Version 2.6.7.1
To ALL Teachers: Do you need a program to maintain
your students' Test Scores and other Grades? Why use a Grade Book, when you
can use GradeBook for Windows?
The GradeBook
program is a Windows program designed for Teachers of all grade levels. It
is easy to use and very flexible. At the beginning of the school year (or
term), you would set-up your classes (there is also an Import Option). For
each class you enter the student's Last Name, and optionally, First Name,
MI, ID, Homeroom, and Gender. Each class can contain as many Semesters as
needed, as well as any number of Marking Periods per Semester. Several Grade
Types are built-in, e.g. Test, Quiz, Homework. However, you can add additional
Types for a given class or for all classes. As new grades are entered, the
new averages are constantly updated. For a given class, you can compute the
Marking Period averages in either of two ways: 1. Each Grade is given a Maximum
Score and a Weight Factor. 2. Each Grade Type will (collectively)
count for a specified percentage of the Average. For more information, click
the E-Mail link above. To download a fully functional Demo of the program
(with reasonably complete context-sensitive help), click on the link to the
upper-right. Un-zip the file (gb.zip) and run the setup.exe file that results.
The program has been in use by many teachers for the last five years--with
great success.

It's fully functional and good for 30 days/15 separate days, whichever is
longer. The actual cost is $25. Since you have at least a month to test the
program, no refunds will be provided.
GradeBook
for Windows is now compatible with Windows Vista. Tested thoroughly for Win98,
WinXP and Vista. Help has been improved. The binaries are now in the form
of self-expanding .exe files, rather than .zip files.
