Update
Welcome to VAR GRADE!
This program has been written to be flexible enough to
allow you to grade your class with the same methods you now
use--except that the program does the tedious chores of
adding, plotting, and writing the scores. The program has
been written by and for teachers and requires no special
knowledge of computers or MS-DOS.
If you are not an experienced computer user, the manual
will show you how to get started with the program. Details
are listed below about how to print the manual.
The program can be used for both grades and attendance.
You may grade with either letter or number grades, and you can
mix and match letter and number grades. You can change the
points of any assignment or score at any time. You can also
use many different types of pre-defined assignments (tasks),
including ones that are the sums, averages, and weights of
other tasks. Any task or combination of tasks can be plotted,
correlated, and analyzed statistically. Attendance for your
classes can be recorded. Several categories of attendance are
defined by VAR Grade. Individual student scores can be
printed or scores for each section of the class can be
printed. You can even control page length, margins, and type
size when printing the data.
This program will allow you to grade:
--up to 16,000 students
--up to 8,000 exams per student
--up to 254 sections of students per class
--an unlimited number of classes
You can:
