Requirements:
Monitor resolution should be 1280x960 which is the optimum for Gradebook. Also, having the view on the browser set to 100% helps. If not you will be missing pieces of what you can see like the scroll bar, and you will not be able to navigate over to items. **Remember the preferred browser is Internet Explorer. Other browsers may not allow fill options when assigning scores to students and other features may not work properly.**
 * 1) TAKE ATTENDANCE every class period! You are legally responsible for them. This is also a legal document if needed for truancy or court cases. BE sure to check the box, //**"all accounted for"**// when taking attendance, even if you mark students absent and/or tardy, it indicates to Admins and the Attendance office you in fact took attendance that period.
 * 2) **Student Attendance errors can only be corrected within the last week,** anything prior to that needs to go through the Attendance office for corrections.
 * 3) **Extra Credit:** Create a column for it and make it WORTH 1 point. Give everyone the one point. If you make it worth zero and do NOT put in a point it will show up either as a missing assignment or a “0” and you will get more calls/questions.
 * 4) **Marking excused or Missed assignments**; You must put the possible points of the assignment then "/ "with the proper code; X,E, M, or L. For example: a 10 pt assignment that was not counted in the student grade would be **10/X** in the points column of the assignment. if it was missed; **10/M and late 10/L.**
 * 5) **Update your grades WEEKLY at least**. Parents and students deserve to know their current grades.
 * 6) For Coaches and staff using Student **Activity Groups (athletics, etc)**; they are viewed in the [|PORTAL]under the DEMOGRAPHICS  tab, not Gradebook. **To View Activity Groups, Open the __GB 2.0 STUDENT ACTIVITY REPORT.__ **[[image:tvilletech/Screen shot 2012-09-18 at 9.50.32 PM.png width="631" height="97"]][[image:tvilletech/Screen shot 2012-09-18 at 9.50.07 PM.png]][[image:tvilletech/Screen shot 2012-09-18 at 10.19.21 PM.png width="239" height="415"]]
