This window, along with the Teacher Desk window, allows an administrator to set up information for teacher grade books. If your school does not have the Scheduling program, this window would allow teachers to add Courses and Students to their grade books.
Using Configure Course Information teachers can edit calculations and grade ranges for each course, as well as, assignment types and assignments. Assignment types and assignments only need to be created if you will be entering daily grades. If you plan to enter only term and final grades, you do not have to configure assignments and assignment types.
