IEW Gradebook vs Madrasatey

IEW Gradebook is a web subscription for organizing grading and student submissions. It places a student paper beside the IEW Checklist, identifies checklist elements, and offers comments teachers can insert with one click. Microsoft Word and Google Docs files are accepted, and teachers can sync work from Google Classroom or allow direct submissions. Classroom views show whether work is missing, submitted, or graded. The gradebook records assignment scores, calculates quarterly, semester, and yearly averages, and tracks mastery of structure and style techniques. For direct submissions, teachers can collect KWOs, rough drafts, and final drafts, then compare a final draft with an earlier version. Its checklists are limited to specified Structure and Style for Students and Writing Across the Curriculum titles. The program is designed for laptops and desktops and has no mobile support. Plans range from $25 a month for 50 submissions to $80 a month for 1000 submissions; a Classroom Add-on is $5 a month. A free trial option is offered, with no duration stated.

Madrasatey is a school management platform for madaris, maktabs and Islamic schools, with tools for attendance, fees, assessments and parent communication. It lists 17 institution types, including Quran academies and hifz classes, and supports English, Urdu and Arabic with right-to-left text. Teachers can record attendance and send automatic alerts for absences or lateness. Parents can receive results, report cards, fee reminders and meeting invitations through WhatsApp; an installable parent app also provides push updates about attendance, results and fees. School analytics can be examined by class, teacher and subject, with slipping sections flagged automatically. Users can make or import MCQ quizzes, which are auto-graded and display live results. The fees module combines siblings on a family invoice and includes records, receipts, discounts and a defaulters list. Other tools handle bulk certificate creation and verification, and tracking student progress through imported YouTube playlists. Role-based access and an audit log cover changes to grades, fees and records. Madrasatey offers a free plan for Madaris and Maktabs at free, with no per-parent charges. It runs on Android and the web.
