What’s in it

Everything a teacher does between lessons, without a school IT department or a subscription.

Grades

Gradebook and report cards

Weighted categories, rubrics and your school’s grading scale. Report cards as PDF or Word, with a comment bank.

Classroom

Attendance and classroom tools

Attendance with your own codes, a random name picker, groups, a timer, class points (德智体美劳 or your own) and seating charts.

Planning

Lesson plans and templates

Plan lessons from templates (5E, PPP, I do / We do / You do) and turn a plan into a PowerPoint to start from.

Families

A website for students and families

Homework hand-in, a Class Story with read receipts, messages and a weekly email. Post to your DingTalk or WeCom class group too.

Private

Your data stays with you

Everything is saved on your computer, encrypted, with an app lock, automatic backups and a presenting mode that hides grades.

Careful AI

AI that suggests, never decides

Optional. It suggests short phrases for report comments and wording for newsletters; you write the rest. It needs internet and your own key.

A gradebook that works like a spreadsheet, with grades that update as you type.
Give class points straight from the seating chart, on the projector.

Download

Free. Pick the file for your computer.

Downloads come through this server, so they work where GitHub is slow or blocked. Each file is also on GitHub.

Windows

If Windows says “Windows protected your PC”, click More info, then Run anyway. EduBoard isn’t code-signed yet; nothing is wrong with it.

Mac

Open the .dmg and drag EduBoard to Applications. The first time, right-click it and choose Open, then Open again.

Linux

Make the AppImage runnable with chmod +x EduBoard.AppImage, then open it.

For schools

Each teacher’s data stays on their own computer. The student and family website is a small server your school can run itself, or use this one. A school pack shares your logo, colours, grading scale, terms and templates with every teacher.
