1.5.3. Easy Grade Pro
Easy Grade Pro is an electronic gradebook that also has classroom management tools.
It offers many features such as tracking grades, assignments, attendance and a seating chart.
It is easy for a user to manage, but doesn't offer many graphical views of the data.

by individual grade.
