The gradebook is part of the Plus and Premium plans and is rolling out gradually. If the Grades tab isn’t on your classroom yet, it isn’t switched on for your account.
What appears in the grid
- Students — everyone enrolled in the classroom, one row each.
- Assessments — every assessment linked to the classroom that is published or closed. Drafts aren’t assignments yet, so they stay out.
- Graded activities — every activity in the classroom with Graded Mode on (maps, timelines, graphs, diagrams, flash cards, fill-in-the-blank).
Reading a cell
Clicking any cell opens the submission or the activity’s grading panel. Grades are entered there, never in the grid.
Averages
- Student average — the number at the end of each row, with a suggested letter under the common US scale. Unscored, missing-without-a-zero-rule, and not-assigned cells are left out, and “n of m” tells you how many assignments counted.
- Class average — the footer row, per column and overall.
Categories and weights
Click Categories to create groups such as Tests · 60 and Classwork · 40. Weights are relative, so they don’t need to add up to 100. Then use the small tag under each column header to put that assignment into a category. Once any category exists:- the grid groups columns by category and adds a subtotal column after each group;
- the student average is the weighted mean of the category subtotals;
- a category with nothing graded yet is left out of the average rather than dragging it to zero;
- uncategorised columns are still shown but don’t count. Assign them, or delete all categories to go back to an equal-weight average.
Exporting
- Export grid — one row per student, one column per assignment with the percent, category subtotals, and the average. A second header row carries the points possible, and a column is marked
[unreleased]while any graded result in it hasn’t been sent to students. Pastes straight into most district gradebooks. - Export detailed — one row per student and assignment with the state, points earned and possible, percent, letter, whether results were released, and when it was submitted. Best for spreadsheets and records.
Frequently asked
Can students see the gradebook?
Can students see the gradebook?
No. Students see their own released results on their results pages, exactly as before. The grid is a teacher view, and it shows you grades whether or not you’ve sent them yet — the amber dot marks the ones students can’t see.
A student submitted an assessment twice — which one counts?
A student submitted an assessment twice — which one counts?
The most recent submission. Open the assessment’s submissions list to see both.
Does the gradebook still work on an archived classroom?
Does the gradebook still work on an archived classroom?
Yes. Archived classrooms keep their Grades tab and exports, so end-of-year records stay reachable.
Why is an activity missing from the grid?
Why is an activity missing from the grid?
Only activities with Graded Mode switched on appear. Open the activity’s Edit Details, turn on Graded Mode and set a due date, and it joins the grid.
