Right now to add an attendance note or a note about a student's assignment, we have to click to open a new window, scroll down to the comment section, type it out, and click to save it. When I get back to the gradebook, their original grade is now gone and I have to reenter it. UX design has a "3 click rule" and it says, to increase useability, nothing should be more than 3 clicks away. This is more than 3. There are codes like M, I, and L for assignments, if we could add our own that would be simpler and save us time and our patience.
