It's All in Your Browser: Haiku LMS Ups the Ante for Online Grading

Haiku's learning management system, Haiku LMS, now includes an Annotated Dropbox for in-browser commenting


Goshen, Ind. - When it comes to managing an online classroom, Haiku Learning Systems keeps simplicity front and center. With its latest release of the Annotated Dropbox, teachers no longer have to download an attachment, open it in their desktop software, add their comments, save the file, and upload it for the student.

Instead, Haiku enables teachers to open, annotate, and return homework all without leaving their favorite web browser.

“The Annotated Dropbox is organizes homework by assignment and class, making student work easy to sort and process.” says Haiku Learning CEO Bryan Falcón. “First off, schools save paper by using the dropbox. But even better, they also save their teachers the effort it takes to download and organize files on their computer. It’s yet another advantage of working in the cloud - all their student work in one place”

Teachers agree. Dr. Martha Weinstein at Academy of the Holy Angels says the Annotated Dropbox is already saving her time. “This weekend I graded a homework assignment on Haiku using the annotation function,” she says. “It was awesome. No huge piles of paper to drag home. No stacks of paper staring at me-causing me to procrastinate. When I had a moment, I did homework. It went very quickly.”

It’s easy to use, too. “It was flexible, easy to do, and I graded everything and got it back to the classes in record time,” she says. “I have told my classes that all homework and labs will be done this way from now on.”

Of course, teachers can still download attachments if they’d like.

The Annotated Dropbox is powered by Tutor Trove (www.tutortrove.com) and is available to schools and districts using Haiku LMS. Visit http://haik.me/eSNEBm for more information or check out this short video to see the Annotated Dropbox in action: http://haik.me/ijkHB6
