Evaluating Software for Classroom Use

You should evaluate the software that you are going to use in the classroom on many different points. You should evaluate it on not only on how the students but how you teacher can use it. Is it easy to check how the students are doing? Does it neatly summarize their grades in a table or some other easy to read format? Are there some applications of the software that tests the students on how well they understand the information being taught to the students?Is it age appropriate? There could be many ways to evaluate the software used in class. It all depends on what you are going to use the software for. It is hard to evaluate the software needed until you fully understand the curriculum and how you can fit the software into it.
