Batch Email?
This is my grade book of choice and has been for 10 years. It works well and has great functionality. But how about the ability to batch email student grade reports from the iPad? I used to use the Mac version to do this but the Mac version won’t be updated. The web version introduced a nasty bug that stopped dropping low scores when I batch emailed my student reports. So why not just add this functionality to the iPad version?

Good app
Just learn it and you will like the useful features.
"Love this app..."
I have been using Gradekeeper on my Mac computer for years. A great program for my needs. Now for my iPad, bonus! It does everything I need, and more.
I love this app
I love this app the only thing is that I wish there where displan adding to the app
Nice extension to Gradebook
This app is NOT a substitute for having Gradebook on my PC at school, but it saves me time entering assignment grades as I'm correcting at home. I wish it would link with Google Drive because that's what our school uses for shared resources and backups - adding that functionality would make this a 5.

Great App
This is a great app with a PC companion which makes life much easier. New DropBox access made things even easier. As a OneDrive user, I'd be happy if that were also added, and I suspect Google Drive users would appreciate that, too.
Good Teaching Utility
I have been using Gradekeeper for at least 5 years now. The current version is very helpful and easy to use. The addition of the ability to export to email is very useful.
Perfect complement to the desktop version
If you have the desktop version, this is a great addition for quick in-class attendance/grading.
Syncs perfectly with the desktop app via Dropbox ... Just remember to click on the Classes tab at the bottom before you exit in order to cause the sync.

Very good, takes a little getting used to
Our school has used the computer based version for a few years, but I love the iPad version. All my grades are right on hand, easily altered if students resubmit work, and easy to display. Recent update makes it even better. Only 4 stars because I would like to see Google Drive support (currently has Dropbox) and it does take a little time (not much) to figure out all of the options. It is all I use now for grades.

Simply amazing - it's a no-brainier
Been using since the 90's and it's only gotten better. Now able to sync with Dropbox on my iPad - it makes taking attendance a snap. The author is a great guy and will answer any question in a flash. Just get it and get your colleagues to use it, as well. It's well worth the very low cost.
Ahhhh! This is it!
This is the app I have long been waiting for. I'm a long time desktop user (I love the simplicity) and to have the mobility to work on the iPad and switch to the desktop version when needed....priceless. If you have been waiting to get the iPad version, wait no longer. All that and I can print too! Yes!

Was a good app- now it is GREAT!
I am middle school teacher and have used this app for the past two terms. I absolutely LOVE the recent update! I am still exploring all the new possibilities, but I love the fact that individual student's marks can be printed or emailed (I am looking forward to easier communication with parents!).
I am still figuring out how to use this app with drop box, but when I do, I am confident that it will become even more useful.
My only wish is that I could email or print whole class reports (Maybe with just the current grades? Much like the list that pops down when selecting a student from the class list).
Thank you for a fantastic app. Keep doing what you're doing!

Gradekeeper Highly Recommended
Teachers K-12 and college profs, rejoice! I have used this app for years. This is the grade system for you. The ipad Gradekeeper can do everything you need, and when you also have the desk top version, your grades and reporting are under your complete control.
Leaves a lot to be desired
I’m a long time user of the desktop version, but I wish I had taken some time to read the reviews here before purchasing. I don’t understand why you can’t open a file from a cloud service. The proposed constant syncing of files with iTunes means I’ll just stick with my laptop for grading.
best grading software
i strongly recommend this software. keep it up with update :)
Confusing
Not too friendless, sorry!
Good idea but not enough summaries and much too easy to be confused with the descriptors.

Not for me...
Maybe it's more useful if you use the Gradekeeper program on your desktop, but it did not work for my classes, and I did not appreciate having to pay for the app to find that out. Plus, it was really difficult for me to import my class rosters.
Meh...
I love gradekeeper for my desktop, but there has got to be a way to sync files instantly. How about Dropbox? Developers, will you look into it? I will re-write my review and make it glow when you do! Thanks!
Too American and not possible to adapt for UK teaching.
I can see how this might be useful. You can keep track of class attendance and marks. You can even organise your attendance based on a seating plan. It will average the marks for you if you wish. The lingo is very US based (extra credit and such). And here lies the problem. As a secondary teacher in the UK I need a mark book that can handle percentages as well as Key Stage 3 levels. Sometimes I need to just enter effort grades for formative assessments. At the moment I can't seem to adapt this. A pity. You also can't move the desks around on the seating plan. So unless your classroom is laid out in rows it doesn't really work as there isn't the possibility of putting the desks in groups or a seminar square. Give it a try if you teach in an American high school. For the UK I'd say stick with google spreadsheets for the moment.

I LOVE THIS APP
Gradekeeper for IPAD is very easy to use. It is quick and easy. I take attendance in a snap and grades are done in no time. The parents love the reports.
What makes it great is the fact that it is not Internet dependent. My school now requires me to use something else. It is so slow since I always have to wait for it to be saved on the Internet. Gradekeeper has a quick sync and it's done. I really miss this app. The other teachers I work with who use it are also reluctant to change.
