  1. Jupiter Grades Overview Center for Talent Development Summer 2012

  2. Logging In • The main Jupiter website is: juptergrades.com • Top right corner, click on Login • Click on Teacher/Admin, and login!

  3. Your Gradebook • You will see an option between Session 1-1 and Session 1-2. • Your students are the same in both “semesters”. • If you are a TWO semester course, this is fabulous! • If you are a ONE semester course, you are still artificially divided, and must follow the dates we provide you. • Everyone will get reminder emails when it is time to switch gradebooks. • SESSION 1: • Dates for Gradebook 1 (semester 1 or first half of semester): 6/24 – 74 • Dates for Gradebook 2 (semester 2 or second half of semester):7/5 – 7/13 • SESSION 2: • Dates for Gradebook 1 (semester 1 or first half of semester): 7/15 – 7/25 • Dates for Gradebook 2 (semester 2 or second half of semester): 7/26 – 8/3

  4. Semesters, Grades continued • How do I know if my course is one or two semesters? • It is in our course information online • You can also ask your AC! • How will CTD reconcile the single semester grade if the gradebooks are broken in two pieces? • For the final grade, there’s an option to make it an average of the whole session.

  5. Setting up the Grade Breakdown • Under Categories, select WEIGHTED • Type in your Category and weights – this must be what you’ve given the students in the syllabus • Pre-Assessment counts ZERO • Under Cumulative, select “Weighted Average, precise” • Under Grading period, you can weight the “semesters” or half semesters differently if appropriate, but for MOST courses, this simply a 1/1 situation. • Please put 0 for the session you are not using • Show which grades – you can choose how to see your grades

  6. Creating Assignments and Entering Grades • To create an assignment, click on ASSIGN • Click on NEW • Fill in all the fields • You can create assignments as many at a time as you’d like, and then add in the grades once you’ve graded them. • Assignments always correspond with a category!

  7. Entered Grades

  8. Views • What can you see? • Play around with it! Many great ways to see the information! • Things that we do not use – like roll, etc. • Help file is absolutely your friend if you want to see something but can’t find a way to do it. • For the most part, you will be looking at your assignments and whole class grades over time.

  9. Export and Save – End of Session • Under Setup, click on PRINT • Choose GRADEBOOK, spreadsheet view • Look at the menus – choose what you’d like to export (at the end of session, we want EVERYTHING. • Print and save as a PDF • You will email that PDF to your AC, and copy your PC.

  10. R/TA Log in • You may optionally allow TA's to log into your gradebook with limited access to enter scores, update homework, and enter roll. They may login only from the computer(s) where you set it up, and you specify which features they can access: • Level 1: Homework & Announcements — Lets TA's update the text posted and upload files, but not make any other changes or see students' grades or ID's. • Level 2: Attendance — Lets TA's enter attendance for the current day, but not see or change attendance on past dates. • Level 3: Scores & Assignments — Lets TA's change and enter new scores and assignments, but not delete assignments or see students' grades. • To enable TA access: • Go to the computer that the TA will use. (If they need access from multiple computers, repeat these steps on each computer.) • Log into your account and go to the Setup Account & Password screen. • Select the TA access level and password. (Each computer can have a different access level, but they all use the same password. You can leave the password blank, but that is a security risk.) • Logout. • Then your TA can go to the login screen, select the "TA" tab, enter your username, and enter the TA password you chose.

  11. Other Details • Students are loaded into your gradebooks for you. • If a student is transferred into your class, switches out of your class, or drops out of your class, you may need to remind your AC to remove or add that student for you. • Session 2 will be ready to go after rosters are finalized – that should happen in about 2 weeks. Your AC will send you an email letting you know your gradebooks are ready. • The grades will be entered into the new electronic evaluation system FOR YOU (YAY!). • You must ensure that grades your R/TA enter for you are accurate, and that grades you enter are accurate. That will save headaches for all in the future. • People who can take a peek at your grades include your AC and your PC. We may check in with you via email. • QUESTIONS?
