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.

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.

iPad Focused Data Entry
The current iPad data entry for the gradebook is sufficient, but could be slightly improved. We are considering creating an iPad focused data entry dialog that would remove the need for the keyboard for the iPad. This screen would have it's own number pad or selector depending on what kind of field you're currently editing. It would have quick navigation for getting to the next student or assignment.

Provide a user option for which Date Completed to use when entering Scores: Due Date, Today, or Other
When entering students scores for an assignment the Date Completed defaults to the due date. This of course is only a problem when students are submitting work late. It would be nice if it would either default to today's date or have an option either in the gradebook set-up or when entering scores fields.

Enhance Keyboard Navigation in Scores By Class
When entering grades on the assignments by class page, I would like to be able to press "PageUp" and "PageDown" to scroll up and down one page at a time.
I also want to be able to use "Home" to go to the top of the spreadsheet (the first student) and "End" to go to the bottom of the spreadsheet (the last student).
Also, the arrow keys currently only scroll up and down when you get to an empty cell. The arrow keys should scroll up and down regardless of whether you have enter a grade for the student already…

When running a report, allow an option for using color for missing assignments
The reports are only in black and white. Allow the option to have the missing assignments highlighted red when you print them out. This is so that the students can easily find their missing assignments on a report.

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 -

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.

On the import assignments pop-up, have the name of the teacher signed in appear rather than the first teacher alphabetically at the school.
If you are not the first teacher alphabetically at the school, you have to scroll to find your name, every time. I do not think that I have ever imported an assignment from another teacher (in 12+ years).

Add assignment average to the magnifying glass on Loading grades from gradebook screen
Teachers would like an assignment average when you click the magnifying glass on the Load Grades from gradebook screen. Currently you click the magnifier and can see the assignments for the standards, but they'd like to have an average assignment score as well.

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.
