Master Grade

I have decided to use Master Grade by Maxium Developments Inc. for my grade book. This grading apparatus can be found at http://www.maxium.com/. This program is assessable for Mac and Windows users. There are various features associated with this program. A user can insert assignments, seating charts, and calculate grades, incorporate an unlimited amount of classes and students, add student notes/comments, e-mail addresses, and photos, and also take attendance.

So far this software seems easy to use. Navigation doesn’t seem too difficult because it’s a basic program. There are a lot of pros associated with this program with minimal cons. The only issues revolve around the fact that report cards/progress reports associated with Master Grade obviously wouldn’t correlate with the school an educator is working at. Grading category options may also be a concern for some educators.
