Upgrade with Engrade!

on 6/20/2011


Engrade is a free web-based online management for classroom, including the gradebook, assignment calendar, and attendance book. It helps the teachers to manage the database of students, ranging from grades to record of attendance to the assignment calender. Teachers are able to sign up for this service. Students can also sign up for this service, only if they get the access code from their teachers who are participating to use this service. It also allows the teachers to have secure communication with students and parents. Students also can use this to have access to their grades in real-time from anywhere at any time.

The service, brought by Engrade, is truly free and will remain free. We are able to offer Engrade free of charge because we have been fortunate in past business, allowing us to volunteer our talents and to pay for expenses out of our own pockets. In the future, we may add optional premium services (for example, a service to send student transcripts to colleges) to help pay for costs, but we will always keep the main features free


This tool is free of charge, which will be a great supplement to the classroom management for teachers. Teachers would have a peaceful mind, knowing that they have the database of attendance book, gradebook, and assignment calender online. Students also are able to access their grades through Engrade, so they would know their grades on specific assignments, quizzes, or projects immediately after the teacher input their grades online. Also, they are able to look up for upcoming homework on assignment calender, develop their own public websites where students and parents can view on who they are, and send the messages to the teacher to ask questions outside of the classroom.
 Administrators are able to add this classroom management tool for its school, allowing the teachers to participate in using this complimentary service that matches their classroom management needs.
This classroom management tool can apply to any grade level in any school that does not provide its own course management system . Teachers will need to input the database of students, set up the scoring for each assignment, and adjust the percentages of the grading in a course easily. Here is a list of complimentary online features, as retrieved from Engrade's website.

Engrade has a lots of tools students can use. It's not just a to-do list, a reminders pad tool, etc. It's an all-in-one online application that does lots of things. Teachers' accounts differ with the students' accounts. It manages things like quizzes, discussions, attendance, reports, grades, lessons, and even messages.

We find Engrade very appealing. Its interface is very clean and user-friendly, it is easy to use both for students and teachers/professors, it manages lots of things, and does a lot of things(better, faster, and easier).
