A number of changes have gone into the program since the last release. Although you may be able to open a data file created with a earlier version, it is suggested you begin with a new gradebook. If you must try opening an existing data file, please make a backup copy first. This version should be able to read data files created with version 2.0 or later.
Freeware
Eagle GradeBook is free. However, if you use it please send me a postcard. Knowing the program is being used inspires me to keep it up to date. I also am willing to consider suggestions for improvement.
Available Only for the Macintosh
Introduction
Eagle GradeBook is written for school teachers to track a class of students. The basic functions of the program are to record attendence, record assignments and grades, compute student grades, and produce reports. A spreadsheet is used as the primary method of entering and maintaining data. The objective was to make the spreadsheet look much like the ones used in typical grade books. There are over a dozen different reports available. I have attempted to make the interface as friendly as possible and hope it is intuitive.
Grades may be entered using a letter grade, points, pass/fail, or plus, check, minus. You may also define your own letter grades. Calculation of grades may use a straight average, even average, or weighted average.
Since posting the Eagle GradeBook program I have heard from teachers in the United States, Canada, and Australia. The program has been used from elementary school through college.
