I'm designing some software that will assist educators in tracking students, grades, and assignments. It will be able to produce reports that can either be printed or posted on a website.

What I want to know is, what other features would you like to see in this software? If you currently use software like this, what would you like to see improved?

Are teachers going to take any blame ?

Alright. I have stumbled upon an obstacle in my ninth grade Honors Freshman English class. 75% of all the students who type an essay get "middle range grades," which my teacher classifies as C to B-. A high grade for her is a B to an A. She has taught about 1500 students in her life and has never given out an A+ on an essay. The only two students to get A's (out of 130) on the essay were my friends, a boy who received an A- and wants to major in literature (journalism), and a girl who takes more time to check her work than to actually type it. I know for a fact these two kids spent about 12 hours each on the essay. She has already given out "quizzes" with AP and ACT level questions. I got a low B on the essay. How can I get an A- or better on essays without trying so hard that it kills me (I don't want to major in English; Biology and Math is for me). Thanks
