Ginger Software Now Can Provide You with Statistics & Reports

It has been very exciting to watch as Ginger has evolved over the course of the past couple of months.  If you have not had a chance to look at Ginger, I urge you to download the latest version from the Ginger Software Website. One of the features which I am sure will garner a lot of interest from teachers who are working with students with writing disabilities is the ability to quickly generate a report of the types of grammar and spelling errors that a student makes.

With Ginger Premium it is now possible to quickly generate a report of the student’s spelling and grammar errors right from within the application. For the home user, a parent can simply click on statistics and reports within the Ginger menu as seen here. Ginger will automatically launch your browser and generate a report.

At the school level, teachers will go to Ginger Software website and click School & Reports Login as seen below. 

Teachers have the capability to sort their Ginger users into groups whether it’s by course, class period or even assistance level. Each teacher using Ginger has the opportunity to create their own groups to best utilize Ginger as they see fit, truly adding to Ginger’s versatility as a learning platform.

Ginger’s reports allow the parent or teacher to generate a report within a certain time frame, be it a week, month, or year, enabling them to track the students’ progress over time.

Likewise, teachers can drill down and look at the types of errors that students are making. In the report below you will see that Ginger classifies errors as; Grammar and Misused or Spelling. The report will tabulate the number of occurrences of the errors and will also show you what the student wrote and the correction.

Armed with this type of data, teachers can begin to see patterns in their students' work and indentify their specific needs and chart appropriate interventions. Educators will be delighted that they can collect this type of information and have it available to them as they plan a student's educational program.
