IO Classroom Reviews

The ease of creating assignments and linking them to google classroom

The new version is supposed to be better, they rolled it out this year, however, it is slow and makes it more difficult to input grades.

I had issues syncing my grade books, it would take me a large amount of time to get things done. I can realized that now the software is linked to google classroom.

1. User friendly

2. Great way to connect with students and parents

3. Easily accessible data

1. Data analysis is slow

I think the best think about io classroom is that it has an easy way to upload grades and it will turn it into an average automatically. The way to create a new assignment and put it into each class is also easy enough to do.

I dislike that you can't directly upload data sets from an excel document unless you are using the format that they give you. I also think the side bar is a bit clunky.

I think you should pay to get io classroom and I think you should organize the sharing options with your colleagues so that they do not have an issue working with your students.

We are able to keep track of student data and to issue grades, give assessments and upload course assignments. Students also have access to their grades almost instantaneously due to their use of pupil path.

IO is a great way for me to manage my gradebook. It's easy to sort assignments into categories, change the weight or the percentage points, and see change from marking period to marking period. Also love the ability to write anecdotal logs about students - I can immediately write up a disciplinary issue, or see what issues other teachers have written about that student.

Not much ability to see data or trends; I would like to be able to play around with that and see what's working/what's not.

Definitely take advantage of looking up information about a student. You can see their grades in other classes, attendance history, and anecdotal logs written about them. If I am struggling with a student in my class, it really helps to be able to see how they are performing in other classes.

In addition to helping me manage my own gradebook, students/parents have the ability to log in and see their own grades. This way, when they ask me what they're missing or what their grade currently is, I can help them see it all right in front of them.

It's easy to create assignments and input grades, and I like being able to see transcripts and academic history for each student. Taking attendance within the app is also helpful. It's also nice to link to Google Classroom to get grades from there.

It doesn't have advanced features like a detailed analysis of student performance. It's also not incredibly user-friendly. For example, combining classes or adding teachers can be a headache. The app is very glitchy as well.

Its best function is as a gradebook, to input grades and assignments for all students. It's also helpful to use the anecdotal logs to share important information about students with other teachers.

I like that you can tag other staff in logs and they'll get notifications to their emails.

Some of the features still aren't working after a few months of school.

I like the email notifications. Attendance is also easier.
