Using the Gradebook

Open a course gradebook, find students, and display the score or status of a gradebook or content item.

If you have permission to grade students in a course, you can use the gradebook to view and modify the score or status of the gradebook and the content items. You can also add additional gradebook items and edit student records.

Before you begin

  • All students registered in the course display in the gradebook. You can narrow the list by using the Filter button.
  • In general, you should grade students in sessions, not courses. A student should always be registered into a valid session. If not, the student has not enrolled in a session yet and is not ready for grading anyway.
  • A session ID such as -1 or -2 means that either the session the user was previously enrolled in no longer exists (-1), or the user is registered for the course but has not selected a session yet (-2). Wait until the student has chosen a session, or correct the problem, before trying to grade. Entering grades for a student in a -1 or -2 session will not work.

Display the score or status of a gradebook or content item

  1. Open the Curriculums/Courses side-tab and click Manage Courses.
  2. Use the fields in the search window above the results table to filter the list of courses:
    • Org ID – Org ID under which the course is registered.
    • Course ID – Enter any combination of letters and numbers to search for any courses that contain that combination in the Course ID.
    • Title – Enter any combination of letters and numbers to search for any courses that contain that combination in the title.
    • Description – Enter any combination of letters and numbers to search for any courses that contain that combination in the description.
    • Course Type – Use the list to select the type upon which to search.
    • Include Inactive – Enable this check box to include inactive courses in the results.
  3. Select the appropriate course ID from the table and click Gradebook. Alternatively, select the course ID, right-click on the table and select Gradebook. The Gradebook window opens. It lists the students enrolled in the course and their status in the course. The session ID is also provided. Click Filter to minimize the search results on longer listings if necessary.
  4. To display a student's score for a gradebook item, select the student's entry in the table. If a score is associated with the gradebook item, it is displayed in the Score field.

You can modify status and score if necessary. See Modifying a student record and completion date.
