What To Expect with ThinkWave on Your Mobile Device
Upload Assignments and Handouts Online
ThinkWave's school administration software supports distance learning by allowing teachers to upload homework and handouts to a unified platform. Each file can be up to 25MB, with 100GB of online storage included (more is available if needed). Supported formats include .pdf, .doc, image files, video files, and more. Students and parents can easily download homework and handouts online.
The upload function also organizes handouts in one central location, eliminating the need for email exchanges between home and school. All resources are accessible from any computer, as well as iOS and Android devices.
Students Can Submit Outputs Online
ThinkWave makes it easy for students to submit homework online. With a simple upload feature, students can quickly submit their assignments, which are instantly available to teachers in the grading interface. Uploaded files are organized by assignment and date for easy access.
Student Administration and Grades
Final grades are immediately available to administrators, students, and parents. Teachers and administrators can override grades and add comments up to 5,000 characters. GPA and credits are calculated automatically, with options for custom calculations. Quarter grades can be combined into semester grades, and administrators can create different final grade scales for various courses. ThinkWave Student Communication Apps allow students to be able to easily check their grades from their phones.
The system supports multiple grading scales within a single school, including elementary marks, standard letter grades, percentages, and custom scales.
Messaging and Group Emailing
ThinkWave offers tools for posting and emailing messages and announcements. You can send messages to all students and parents, specific groups, or individual classes. Easily attach files to blog posts and send them via email with a single click.
Custom Report Cards and Transcripts
ThinkWave Administrator streamlines the process of creating consolidated report cards and transcripts by automatically gathering grades, comments, and attendance from teachers. This data is combined into fully customizable reports that can include standard and custom fields such as citizenship, awards, and test scores.
Elementary classes can have multiple final grades, like "Spatial Thinking" and "Problem Solving" in Math. Transcripts compile results from all academic years and can incorporate historical data from previous schools for comprehensive graduate reports.
Integrated Gradebook for All Teachers
ThinkWave provides an online learning toolkit that can be accessed from any computer without the need for software installation. The grading interface is automatically populated with student names, courses, and enrollments.
Teachers have the flexibility to use a points-based grading system or choose from options like letter grades, pass-fail, checks, and custom scales. They can also customize assignment types and weights to suit their specific grading preferences. If a class is reassigned, all assignments and attendance records are seamlessly transferred to the new teacher. Additionally, assignments and handouts can be easily copied from previous terms.
Learning Portal for Students and Parents
ThinkWave's student administration system boosts communication by providing personalized, password-protected accounts for both students and parents. This allows easy tracking of classroom information, such as detailed summaries of student progress, graded assignments, and upcoming tasks.
Grades Online streamlines organization, supports early intervention, and updates information automatically, lightening the workload for teachers and administrators.
Manage Attendance for Your School
Attendance marks and comments are swiftly shared between administrators and teachers, ensuring seamless communication. Administrators can verify and modify attendance records as needed. Attendance types can be customized and recorded on a daily or period-by-period basis.
Various scheduling options are available to suit different needs, including standard, cyclical (A/B), and weekly (M, T, W, Th, F) timetables. Average Daily Attendance (ADA) and Average Daily Membership (ADM) can be calculated using customized formulas such as periods present, percentages, or total minutes attended.

ThinkWave operates entirely through the web, eliminating the need for software installation or server upkeep, thus reducing IT and personnel expenses. Deployment is straightforward: administrators, teachers, students, and parents receive access codes via email and can log in through a web browser on a computer, iOS, or Android device.
