Think back to your days in school. If there was one thing that you could get your hands on (besides the teacher’s edition of your textbook), what would it be? Your teacher’s gradebook, obviously. Not only could you change your own grades (which apparently can get you a felony charge if you do it on a computer), but you’d also have access to all of your friends’ grades. Fortunately, the gradebook with gridded paper that can be locked in a desk drawer is becoming an anachronism. Some teachers have been using computers for grade entry for years, but others stick to the old fashioned way. LearnBoost is a San Francisco, CA based startup that is trying to change the way that teachers manage their classes. They’re starting by offering teachers an easy to use online gradebook, but their aspirations are to offer a simple, fully featured suite of tools for teachers to manage relationships with both students and parents.
As we’ve seen with HotChalk (a company that we featured a while back), the freemium model is a great way to get inside schools. Teachers are often frustrated by the resources that their schools provide, so they look outside for helpful tools. LearnBoost will provide free tools for teachers who will hopefully convince schools to invest in subscription plans for more advanced versions of LearnBoost’s software. LearnBoost has already raised nearly $1 million in venture capital funding to allow them to build out their idea, and they’re starting to spend some of that money on hiring. Their Jobs page shows that they’re looking for a UI Designer and a Javascript Engineer. They also have a Social Media and Marketing Internship, so maybe there will be full-time positions available in that area soon.
