CREATING ASSIGNMENTS AND ENTERING GRADES
In Grade Quick, “tests” are assignments (i.e. homework, project, lab, etc.).
Your students will automatically appear in your grade book. The colors do not mean anything; they are used to separate the information on the screen to make it easier for you to see the student and their grades.
TO ADD AN ASSIGNMENT AND ENTER GRADES: (Remember, assignments are called tests, regardless of what the assignment is.)
Step 1: If you left-click with your mouse, a pop-up will appear on your screen to add a “test” (assignment) column. Click “YES”.
[pic]
Step 2: NAME: Type the name of your assignment in the highlighted “NAME” box. For example, QUIZ 1. (You are limited by eight characters for the name.)
Step 3: LONG NAME: You can enter more information about the assignment. For example, QUIZ ON PAGES 12-18. You will enter this information in a pop-up box.
Step 4: TERM: This will be filled in for you with the current quarter.
Step 5: CATEGORY: Enter the category for the assignment. You are able to type this information into the cell. Once you have entered a category name, you will be able to choose that category for subsequent assignments from a drop-down list.
Step 6: DATE: This will be filled in for you with the current date. You can pre-date or post-date your assignments. If you double-click on the date cell, a drop-down arrow will appear and you can choose the date from a calendar.
Step 7: POSSIBLE: Enter the maximum number of points for the assignment.
Step 8: MANUALLY ENTERING GRADES: Enter grades for each student in your grade book by typing their grade in the appropriate cell next to their name. To move in the column, use the up and down arrow keys. (You may also use the enter key to move to the next students.)

WEIGHTING CATEGORIES
IMPORTANT: If you wish to weight your grades, you MUST do this at the beginning of the year. If you begin weighting your grades, you CANNOT change!
If you want to weight grades, you must create ALL of your categories first.
Step 1: To weight your categories, click on “GRADING” and choose “WEIGHTING”.
Step 2: Click the box to the left of “WEIGHT CATEGORIES” to place a checkmark in the box. Your categories will appear.
Step 3: Assign values to your categories. The total MUST be equal to 100.
Step 4: Click “OK”.
If you are weighting grades, you still have to worry about possible points. The program will take an average of these grades (points) to get an average for the category. The program takes category averages for weighting.
