Gradebook for tracking students works for teachers to keep track of students.

Registered by encompass

[SoC2007]Teachers need a way to keep track of the students works that they have done. Currently there a few to no programs in Linux that provide this solution. This program will fill that gap by providing a Python GTK program to keep track of the student's work information easily.

Whiteboard

Several teachers here in Burlington, Ontario who would greatly benefit from this Gradebook program. I've worked on a draft for a student's final year project and it can get tricky. I am willing to help suggest desired features.

Use xml for the storage and relay of data.

Actually, this has already been done, at least if Google Summer of Code worked as it should. I created the spec hoping to do this last summer, sadly, someone else got this one. Fortunately, I got a different job at Google Summer fo Code. :D LEt me fine the link... http://code.google.com/soc/2007/ubuntu/appinfo.html?csaid=361DBAB13AE22965
I am not sure it got any further.

I'm the author of an open-source app, OpenGrade, that does this: http://www.lightandmatter.com/ogr/ogr.html

I've filed a needs-packaging bug report on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/137103

I believe the current status of this proposal was that Summer of Code did assign a student to work on a python/gtk application a year or two ago, and the student did write something called Gnota, but it doesn't really seem to be finished.

I think choice is great for users. It would be cool if we could get both applications packaged for ubuntu, and if someone could step forward to resume work on Gnota.

There is also an open-source Gambas app called GradeL that is under rapid development.

I will look into it, we will see how his code is and I may pickup where he left off.
I am the guy that wrote the original spec. Infact, this idea was "stolen" from underme.
