By April 30, 2008, all Dallas ISD teachers will be able to record student grades on a Web-based electronic grade book at any time and on any computer with Internet access.

An online tutorial of the automated system is available for teachers or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_of_tubes">those</a> who are yet to comprehend the internet.

The use of GradeSpeed, the electronic grade book, will save teachers valuable time and afford them more time for teaching, said Julius White, interim director – Management Information Systems.

After the Board of Trustees approved the purchase of GradeSpeed.Net for teachers districtwide in November, schools began signing up on the district's intranet site to request access to the grade book.

By January 23, teachers at 129 Dallas ISD schools were using the online grade book.

An online tutorial also is available to teachers.

Currently, the district is completing the installation of high-speed Internet at all schools, which will greatly improve response time for teachers using the electronic grade book, White said.
