The User’s EasyGuide to

UPLOADING GRADES FROM GRADEQUICK

Adapted from the novelette, Nerdism Made Easy by Donald McBride

 

It is pay back time for GradeQuick users. Instead of bubbling in your grades for the end of the marking period, you can electronically 'send' your grades from GradeQuick.

Requirements:

1. You must have downloaded your class rosters from the network. This procedure is not valid if you typed in your student class rosters.

2. You must create a Conduct column for each class & enter a conduct mark for each student. To do so:

a.) Select VIEW from the top GradeQuick menu bar

b.) Select Student Info…

c.) Select Term 1 Effort

d.) Select <OK> to view on the screen

3. You must have a "SubTotal" column for Term 1. (Or 2 for 2nd grading period, etc.)

4. Please double-check the Conduct mark and Final Grade for each student before you 'send' your grades up to the school network. A simple error in one cell of one column will cause a lot of unnecessary work after the grades are 'sent' from your computer.

5. Okay. You've carefully double-checked everything and you're SURE all your data is PERFECT.

Here is what we're going to do to Send your data up to the network:

Important: Please repeat these three steps for each of your classes.

  1. Turn in your blank Scanner Sheets to Mrs. Lott (our Data Processor) so that she knows you have "sent" your grades electronically.

 

A few reminders:

===> So, to log in to the network, please:

  1. Select the <START> in the lower left corner of the screen
  2. Select Log off .... (it will show former user's userid)
  3. Enter your Userid (your last name) in the red Novell Netware login box, when prompted.
  4. Touch the <TAB> key to password and enter your password
  5. Touch <Enter> or click on <OK> and you should see the animated connection graphic indicating a successful logon to the school network. If you experience any difficulty, please see Don McBride
  6. Once logged into the network, begin GradeQuick by double clicking on GradeQuick for Network icon.
  7. To log out of the network when finished, repeat the process but just erase your userid from the red Netware login dialog box and leave the empty Netware box on the screen.
