Rule to allow the maximum score between two categories
We have a few teachers that would like to be able to define a rule to only count the maximum score out of several categories.
So the simplified statement of the rule would be "Count the maximum score between "Quizes," "Tests," and "Exams" for all three categories.

Add shortcut key for new assignments
When in Class View, add something like a Cntl-N to open a New Assignment dialogue. The mouse shift - click -mouse shift - click is very time consuming for something that is extremely common.

Link the gradebook to the Haiku gradebook
Students in our district like the fact that Haiku makes their grades available to them, but teachers have to copy over the grades manually. Make an auto link that gets the grades and assignments copied from Haiku to Aeries on demand.

Allow logins that can see a select group of teacher's assignments; populate in the calendar on the splash screen
Also, case managers have a heck of a time trying to keep track of their caseloads' workload. It would be nice if caseload managers could select from a list of teachers and have a calendar populated of assignments/ future assignments.

Allow URLs to be posted using the Briefcase feature instead of requiring actual file uploads
This would be great for schools using Google Docs. Currently, only actual files are allowed to be associated with an assignment. Schools using Google Docs have no easy way of associating their files to particular assignments.

Allowing to view student image while inputting grades. Cursor over silhouette?
Getting to know students via images while inputting homework, classwork, and test scores. This would help me identify students whom need further differentiated instruction.
I am a visual learner!

Allow teachers to print attendance seating charts for a future date and still have the attendance options show up.
I am trying on a Friday to print attendance sheets for my sub for an absence on Monday. I can print up class lists, but I can't print up anything that shows the attendance options for the sub to easily mark. This is also difficult because we have students changing classes Monday and I can't get an attendance sheet Friday to show my new classes on Monday.

Student Gradebook Search Option with link to gradebook
There needs to be a way to search students by name in the gradebook to figure out which gradebook(period) they are in. Currently you have to go to the main menu to look up period and then go to gradebooks and select the class.

Putting back the grid format (rows and columns) in the Gradebook Summary, instead of only shaded rows.
The older version of Aeries allowed for the Gradebook Summary to be printed in a uniform grid, with point values and assignment titles either at the bottom of the page or a separate page. The new version is only alternating shaded rows. The original version was much more user-friendly, especially with regard to student teaching assistants.

Create an option for standards based grading using Marzano's Power Law
What is the Power Law Formula for standards-based grading?
An internet search for “Power Law Formula” results in hundreds of listings in a wide variety of fields including astronomy, meteorology, and engineering. In his highly regarded book TRANSFORMING CLASSROOM GRADING, Robert J. Marzano describes the use of this formula for standards-based grading. The math behind the power law formula is quite complex (see below), but all that’s necessary for its use is that you know what it does, how to interpret its scores, and when best to use it.
In essence, the power law formula predicts what the student’s next…2 votes -

Lock individual scores to prevent overwrite from Google Classroom import
I have a weird grading policy and am wondering if there are any options that can help me with it.
I haven't found any options that work, so a new feature? The ability to lock an individual score.
Here is the background rundown:
I have 1 grade book for all sections (3) of my Digital 3D Design class and use 1 Google Classroom for all of those sections as well.
I don’t create new grade books or GCs at the semester.
I allow students to “keep” their grade for the school year and let them work on old assignments as…1 vote -
Add Option to Automatically Add Students to Gradebooks Based on Class Changes
I know there is the option to automatically add/drop when teachers access the Scores by Class page but apparently not all teachers use that. We constantly get calls saying "This student is not in my Aeries" when the issue is they are in Attendance but not added to the gradebook.

Student Group in Search Inconsistency
From User view, it is clearly documented that a KEEP process is occurring when selected. The verbiage "Records are being Skipped" displays in the navigation tree. However, when a Teacher searches from the group list (one of their periods), there is no mention of a KEEP. And when selected, there is no indication that “Records are being Skipped”. Seems the interface reflect the same thing in both scenarios.
