Before we begin setting up the gradebook, we need
to change a few preferences. Click on the
Preferences tab across the top of your screen.
19
Scroll down to the Warnings section of the page.
(about half-way down)
Check the box for Prompt user, if assigning
score greater than Possible Points.
20
Under Auto Save, check both boxes and enter 5 in
the minutes box.
21
In the Comment Configuration section, you have
twelve district comments available.
22
You will be able to write in your own comments
and associate them with grades also. But for
now, we will copy the district comments into your
gradebook.
23
Select all district comments by clicking on the
first comment, holding down the shift key on your
keyboard, and clicking the last comment.
Then click Add Selected Items.
24
The comments should copy to the My District
Comments side on the right.
25
Under Parent Portal, check the box that says
Default setting for the Is Assignment allowed
to publish to Parent Portal checkbox when
creating new assignments.
26
Click Submit at the top of the page when these
changes are complete. You should see a
confirmation that these have been updated.
27
Now, click on the My Classes tab to return to
your class list.
28
Click on your first academic class. (not an
advisory class)
29
The default gradebook view shows all options. If
you would like to hide options, click on the
minus sign next to the label.
30
Make sure that you leave the Assignment name and
Comments options open.
Also leave open the Final Grades column. (This
was on the far-right in Integrade.)
31
When your gradebook appears the way you like,
click on Actions and Save Settings.
32
Our next step will be to create categories. Click
on the Category and Assignment tab and the
Actions button. Choose Add/Edit categories.
33
A few words about categories In the past, your
categories have included a Final/EOCT score. That
is no longer the case. This score will be entered
or populated in a separate place. (Grade
Reporting) The Final/EOCT will still be
calculated as 15 as usual. The following slide
gives one example of how this math works.
34
Sample from CA Gray
The Final Grade for the class is figured as
follows CW (above) 85 Final/EOCT 15 100
35
The grading period should be displayed.
36
Choose the 1st 9 weeks grading period. Then,
click the drop-down for Select Courses and check
All.
37
Enter the first category name on this screen.
These categories and weights should have been
determined by your department.
38
Enter the weight for the first category.
39
Set the possible points to 100. Click Submit.
40
The new category should appear in the table below.
41
The screen we are in now is ready for a new
category. Enter in your second category.
42
Select all courses.

Enter the weight for the second category.
44
Set the possible points to 100. Click Submit.

your third category.
46
Select all courses.
47
Enter the weight for the third category.
48
Set the possible points to 100. Click Submit.
49
You should now see all three categories listed at
the bottom of your screen.
50
Pat yourself on the back. Youre halfway
done. We will now create the same three
categories for second semester.
51
Click back on the My Classes tab. Choose a second
semester class.
52
On the Actions tab, choose Add/Edit Categories.
53
All teachers Please walk back through the
category process with me.
54
Creating Assignments
55
Click on the Category Assignment tab to create
a new assignment. (called a task in Integrade)
Note that you will be creating the assignment
for the class which you chose. You can see this
near the top of the page.
56
First, choose the current grading period. Then,
select a category.
57
For the Long Name box, you may be very specific
about the task. For example, Quiz on Verbs
Chapter 5. This name appears in the Parent
Portal. The Short Name box is more limited in
characters. Choose a quick reference name like
Verbs Quiz. This name appears in your gradebook.
58
Choose an Assign date and Due Date.
(If you were to choose a date outside the chosen
grading period, TEMS will give you an error
message.)
59
The Possible Points and Assignment Weight will
auto-populate based on the category that you
choose.
60
Now we will choose the classes that this
assignment will apply to in addition to the class
you are in. To choose more than one class, hold
down the control (Ctrl) key on your keyboard.
Hold down Ctrl for multiple classes.
61
Finally, click Submit. Your screen will change to
the gradebook spreadsheet and your new assignment
should appear.
62
What If Teachable Moment If you should assign
the assignment to the wrong classes, you will
need to delete the entire task from the Category
Assignments tab. Click on the red circle to do
so and recreate the assignment.
63
To enter grades for an assignment, click in the
first cell of the column. You may enter the
students individual grades.
64
To enter students grades quickly, click on the
first grade spot, enter the grade, and move down
the column by using the Tab key or down arrow on
your keyboard. (not Enter)
65
When you are finished entering grades, click on
the Submit button.
66
In the event that you need to assign the same
grade for every student in a course, click in the
top box and enter the grade. When you click in
the first students cell, the grade will
auto-populate the column. Submit changes.
