Dilemma
- Typical grade databases are boring
- All you see are assignments given and grade received: They do not offer any grade interpretations
- Generic information: There is no way to see your grade over time or see your tendencies or a pattern to your work effort or anything.
- For parents, they usually don’t know how the student is doing in school unless they inquire regularly.
Videre is the SOLUTION
- Engaging layout
- Displays graphs and trends
- Interprets grades and provides advanced statistics
- Alerts parents as to how child is progressing
- Shows student how they need to perform to succeed
Technical Information
- Currently only a Proof of Concept
- Builds upon an existing online grade books
- Uses its database and authentication
- Written in PHP
- Graphs using PHP-SWF library
- Right now uses our own test database
Authenticaion
