Last week, on Friday August 21, we submitted the updated version of GradePad. This is a very exciting update for us in that it allows users of GradePad on an iPhone or iPod touch to use a GradePad.com account to import and export data.
GradePad 1.2, as an iPhone app for teachers, will make it easier for teachers to import class lists, create GradePads, share GradePads with others, and export your assessment data to other formats.
The GradePad account allows you to import class lists, create new GradePad rubrics online, and add GradePads that are shared (More GradePads) to your account.
Besides emailing your data, the iPhone/iPod touch app includes options to to log into your GradePad.com account. You can:
- export group lists from your iPhone or iPod touch to your account,
- export GradePad definitions to your account,
- export the results (the assessment data) to your GradePad account,
- import class lists from your GradePad account to you iPhone or iPod touch,
- and import GradePad definitions from your GradePad account.
If you already own a version of GradePad, these features will be part of the 1.2 update. Once the new version goes live, the cost of GradePad will go from $1.99 to $2.99.
