Gradebook

Gradebooks are where teachers record daily grades for assignments, graded discussions, assessments, and other types of student work. Gradebook grades can be used to calculate grade columns for report cards. To access a class gradebook from Faculty, select Classes, choose a class, then select Launch gradebook.

Report card grades, or grade columns, are entered in Grading, typically at the end of a term.

Teachers enter two main types of grades, assignment grades and report card grades.

• Assignment grades for quizzes, tests, projects, homework, etc., are entered in gradebooks throughout a term. For more on information on entering assignment grades, see Working with Gradebook.

• Report card grades are entered during grading periods called Marking Periods that are set up by the Grading Manager at your school. Marking periods are typically at the end of a term, but may also be scheduled throughout a term to report on student progress. Teachers enter report card grades, comments, and skill grades in Grading, which is accessible from a class page or from My Day.
