Grade Types are used to set up the columns of grades on the grading screen and on the printed report cards. The types that are currently available are the actual Grade, Effort, Conduct and Participation. Different combinations of these grade types can be used for different courses or all courses can be made the same. Grade Types are copied to the Grade Book when it is created based on the Grade Types in this setup window. Within each grade book, teachers can modify Grade Types on a per course basis.
Before creating grade books we recommend setting up a master set of grade types. Grade Types can be changed at any time and will apply to selected courses immediately. Any changes affect existing grade books as well as new ones.
