- Welcome to VAR GRADE!
- FEATURES
-
- 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.
