All my gradebook related stuff is here:
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/tree/master/techela, and there is a lot
of it ;)
I have a whole ecosystem built around using git through emacs and
org-mode with my students, which at this point even I find complex!
For grading, I grade directly in the student's turned in org-file using
functions from here
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/techela/techela-grade.el. I
define a minor-mode with a keymap to make grade entry, commenting,
etc... relatively easy for me. The grades are weighted by different
categories, and saved as a filetag (not a property). I tend to put one
problem per file so the grade is just for the one problem, and assign
2-3 of these per week.
For gradebook stuff, most of it is here:
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/techela/techela-gradebook.el
The grades are stored in the student org-files which I return to them. I
lookup all the assignments from the syllabus, and then map over the
org-files for each student for each assignment getting the grades out.
I will be using it again this fall, so /maybe/ the documentation will
even improve ;)
