IEW Gradebook

What IEW Gradebook is

IEW Gradebook is an online subscription program for organizing grading and managing student submissions. It displays a student’s paper beside the IEW Checklist, identifies checklist elements, and lets teachers insert comments with one click. Submissions can come from Google Classroom or directly from students, and the classroom view marks work as missing, submitted, or graded. The gradebook records assignment scores, calculates quarterly, semester, and yearly averages, and tracks mastery of structure and style techniques. For direct submissions, teachers can collect KWOs, rough drafts, and final drafts, then compare a final draft with an earlier version. Microsoft Word and Google Docs files are accepted. Checklists are limited to specified Structure and Style for Students and Writing Across the Curriculum titles. The program is designed for laptops and desktops, not mobile devices. IEW offers a way to try it for free, though no trial duration is stated. Paid monthly plans range from Basic at $25 a month for 50 submissions to Premier at $80 a month for 1000; other tiers are also listed.

IEW Gradebook is intended for homeschooling parents grading one or two submissions weekly and classroom teachers handling many submissions weekly. It may suit educators using the specified IEW titles who want submission tracking and checklist-based grading in a web program.

Limits
