New Features, and bugs

[Dave Fazio]

I am a teacher in Southern California, and am heavily involved in the technology adoption, and planning for our district. I have been trying out the gradepad app, and site. I think it has some incredible potential, but am concerned that it has been abandoned as a project. The latest blog post, and forum post is from Sept, of 2009. Is this app still current, or being updated? I would love to see some features added. Things such as...

- the ability to enter a score rather than a sliding rubric scale.

- the ability to change the rubric scale for each criteria within one gradepad... ie, a category worth 5 points and a category worth 15 points.

- the ability to organize your gradepads into folders on the app and the site.

Just a couple of suggestions.

Also, when I enter the assess by gradepad section on the app, then click a gradepad, then new assessment, the app crashes every time. Even after reboot, and redownload.

I would hate to see this app die out, and plan on recommending it to all of the teachers in my district, should some of these issues be resolved.


Thanks for the great app!
