[schooltool] Basic Question

[DI Peter Burgstaller]

Hello Everybody,

just found this great looking software and have installed the SVN
version.
I could figure most of the things out but have 3 open issues:
1) How do I do reports?
2) How do I grade for mid-term, end of trimester
3) How do I specify what is an A, B, etc.

Thanks for your help.

version.
1) How do I do reports?

Right now, these have to be generated as pdf's by writing some Python code
using ReportLab or writing HTML views using Zope Page Templates. We're
working on specific reports for our testing schools now, and will generate
some generic ones and documentation for setting up custom ones this fall and
winter.

2) How do I grade for mid-term, end of trimester


The biggest project for this summer is finishing the business logic around
terms, so this doesn't really work yet in the trunk.

3) How do I specify what is an A, B, etc.


You can't, yet.

Coming soon...

Hey Tom,

thanks for the info. It looks exciting .. let me know if I can lend a
hand in something.
Programming, testing, documentation, howto .. whatever.

We are using a commercial SIS here at the American School and really
would like to move on to something new.

schooltool looks the best so far.

Keep me posted, Peter
