The Gradebook provides online management of grades for assignments and exams. Stellar can perform weighted calculations for these grades, display cumulative scores, and create a private Grade Report for each student. In addition to creating assignments in the Gradebook, you can also import assignments from Homework into the Gradebook. This means you can enter all grades for online and offline submissions in one location, and Stellar can perform grade calculations for all class submissions and exams.

Info
  • The Gradebook is a pilot tool in Stellar.
    Please keep entering all the grades in one place, either Assignment or Gradebook, as there is not a way to transfer grades between Assignment and Gradebook currently.
Note
For help with the new Gradebook Module, please refer to the Gradebook Module User Guide.
