MarkBook for Windows

The foundation MarkBook was built on.

Every MarkBook product grew from MarkBook for Windows, and year after year, teachers keep choosing it. It’s dependable, familiar and does exactly what they need, the way they like to work.

If you want your gradebook installed on your own computer, with your data beside it and no continuous internet connection required, MarkBook for Windows is made for you.

  • No connection? No problem.

    Enter marks on a long drive, in a classroom with spotty Wi-Fi, or at a kitchen table where the internet is unreliable. MarkBook for Windows is installed on your computer, so it’s ready whenever you are, whatever your connection.

  • Keep your MarkBook data where you can see it.

    Your classes, marks and reports are stored locally on your Windows computer. You stay in control of your files, and you’re responsible for keeping them safe, so back them up regularly, just as you would any important work.

Everything you need to grade with confidence.

  • Grade your way

    Grade with percentages, letter grades or levels. Organize work into categories, and weight individual assessments, whole categories, or both.

  • See beyond the average

    Look at each student’s achievement from several angles, including the Most Consistent Level and trends over time, so every final grade rests on the full picture. Enter No Mark for missing work, so it never quietly counts as a zero. Then adjust any final result using your professional judgement.

    Explore Powerful Calculations
  • Follow every student’s progress

    Trend graphs show whether a student’s achievement is rising, steady or slipping. Class reports show how the whole class is doing, so you can spot what deserves a closer look.

    Explore Student Progress
  • Report with clarity

    Create Student, Class and Combined Reports with graphs, categories, attendance, learning behaviours and comments. A comment library helps you write report comments faster, in your own voice.

    Explore Reporting
  • Keep classroom context close

    Take attendance, build seating plans with student photos, and track learning behaviours and work habits separately from achievement, all right beside your marks.
