Introduction to using the Gradebook.
2. Gradebook components
2.1. Gradebook Tabs
Gradebook Tabs
Tabs are used to organize and navigate around the Gradebook. There are actually two levels of tabs. The main tabs include:
- View
- Categories and items
- Letters
- Export
- Settings
- My Preferences
Each of these tabs contains at least one sub tab. Each tab presents different information. The View tab will be used most often.
Here the View tab of the Main Tabs has been selected. The LAE Grader Report is the secondary tab selected. This view will provide the Feasibility Teacher with an overview of the students enrolled, the assignments that can be graded and the grades entered (if they exist).
Notice that there are other main tabs and secondary tabs.
- Categories and Items - could be used to establish different categories within the Gradebook. This could be used to set up things like Formative vs Summative assessments.
- Letters will display the grading scale (93%-100%=A). This area also allows the Feasibility Teacher to change these boundaries.
- Export - Allows the Gradebook to be exported to a variety of file types.
- Settings - Allows the Feasibility Teacher to change the default settings of the Gradebook
- My preferences - Allows for preferences to be set.
Drop Down Menu
The Drop down menu at the top will allow the Feasibility teacher to go to the same places as the Tabs do. Both will go to exactly the same pages. This is a matter of preference only.
Thus, using the Drop down menu to select User report (under the View heading) will take the Feasibility Teacher to the same place as selecting the View Tab and then selecting the User report on the secondary tab. (*Note that you must select a secondary tab from the Drop down menu.)
