At any time, the grades may be displayed on the computer screen or printed. In addition to raw totals and scores, Gradebook Plus will automatically calculate many useful statistics on individual students, on classes as a whole, or on individual assignments. Statistics include mean, median, and standard deviation. A histogram and grades based on an instructor-selected grading scale are also available. The teacher's manual explains how the program works, describes the different report options, and gives samples of the various reports.
Stories are suitable for older learners and they deal with contemporary topics.
Students can read the passages in the story and hear the dialogue as well. There are built in cloze exercises for most of the screens. K-6 Learners explore authentic texts in which every word is linked to information about the word and its function to improve their grasp of the structure and grammar of English. They can test themselves in two ways. One activity requires them to select a word category and identify all instances of it within the text.
