Extensive research has been done on it. I don't know of anything else that is nearly as good.

]]> Comment on Grade Machine is dead, long live Grade Machine by Darla Agajanian http://trampleasure.net/lee/index.php/36/comment-page-1#comment-10372 Darla Agajanian Wed, 21 Mar 2012 03:42:11 +0000 http://trampleasure.net/lee/?p=36#comment-10372 I have used Grade Machine since 1991 and I love it! I use it as a back up program to our district's online grade program. When theirs goes down or crashes, I don't need to cry! I still have my grades!! I am worried about it only working on a 32 bit computer. My new laptop was a 64 bit and I changed it back to 32 bit, just so I could still run my Grade Machine program!

They generally like the calculator option because it's so much faster than hand graphing. (All our students have TI calculators, so we use these instead of Excel--I have a handout that walks them through the process, you can download it here.
