Eric,

I asked Carsten about this on irc today, and he had some good suggestions 
since he's a teacher and all.

These first ones are for a google SoC project, though gnome based. :(

Another open source grading tool

and here's one Carsten found that he said he may end up using or is using at 
the moment...?

hope that helps,
