Instant Progress
Instant Progress (iprog) is a simple way to track a student's current
class progress. Many gradebook programs have the ability to print out a
progress report for each student in a single class, but very few have the
capability to consolidate these grades across every class. Instant
Progress operates by taking a data export from every teacher's gradebook,
and organizing in a fashion that is easily and quickly accessible.
Instant Homework
Instant Homework (ihomework) allows parents to request and receive
homework
assignments for their students. Many school buildings struggle with
a way to have parents call in and pickup homework for their children.
While many student systems allow generic lesson plans to be posted
throughout the year, these will typically change and the best way to find
a student's homework assignment is by asking the teacher. This system
allows parents to notify the teacher, who will then send the specific
homework assignment(s) back to the parent. If the homework is in
electronic format, it can even be attached to the parent's email.
Instant News
Instant News (inews) is a system that will send a burst of email messages
to parents throughout the district. This system goes beyond a
traditional listserv by adding custom criteria for a school district. A
principal can email a single grade level. Buildings will save
on postage by sending out their school newsletter electronically. The
coach can let parents know that footbal practice was cancelled. An
emergency at one of the schools can be broadcast to the entire district
immediately. Instant News is based on data from your student information
system that is already available, and provides the ultimate district
communication tool.
Instant Election
Instant Election (ielect) is a voting system geared towards schools.
Instant Election will allow you to quickly tally votes for a student
council or mock election being held within your school. There are no more
stray marks, miscounted votes, and especially no wasted time taken to
count hundreds of slips of paper. The election is managed by a teacher or
administrator, and the results and fed back in real-time.
Simple Grade
Simple Grade is a web based grade book that allows for total customization
of grades. Geared towards elementary teachers, Simple Grade will allow
your
teachers to use any type of grade they wish, and custom tailor a set of
grading standards for a single grade or an entire building.
