TA's Friend Description

An application specifically designed to help college TAs spend more time teaching and less time grading. TA's Friend is a simple application for keeping track of student test grades and homework that takes the place of a typical grades spreadsheet. TA's Friend was designed specifically to make the job of being TA easier and is replacing the typical grading spread sheet.TA's Friend was developed using Mac's native programing language Cocoa. With TA's Friend you can have multiple documents each of which can be used to manage the grades for a class. With each document you get a main view that shows the students names, final (averaged) grade and the scores for each assignment. Here are some key features of "TA's Friend": · Add Students - To quickly add students click on the student toolbar item, and enter the new student's name. Student names can be either full format ie: Lance Morquecho or last name first ie: Morquecho, Fred. A list of students can be added by going to the file menu and selecting 'Import Students'. · Add Assignments - To add assignments, click on the 'Assignment' toolbar item and enter the assignment name. Optionally you can also add the value of a perfect score or the weight of the assignment. These settings can be changed later by selecting the assignment and pressing the 'Info' toolbar item. · Grade Assignments - One of the most powerful features of TA's Friend is the ability to grade assignments quickly. To enter grades for an assignment, click on the 'Grade' toolbar item. In the Name field, start typing a name, when the desired name appears, press tab, enter the grade and press enter. If the 'alphabetized' check box is checked, the next student name automatically appears in the name field. · Export - TA's Friend documents can be saved in a native .TAsF format or as a .csv file which can be used with your favorite spreadsheet program.
