Managing the Classes in your Gradebook


You can add, delete and rename your classes. You can sort them into any order. Terms can be added to classes and terms can be renamed. This section explains how to perform these basic tasks.

To add a class:

To add a new class, follow the steps found on the prior page. Note: if you need to add a new term to an existing class, see To add a term to an existing class below.

To delete a class:

  1. Choose Delete->Class from the Tool menu. The Delete Records window will open with a list of all the classes in the gradebook.
  2. Select the class or classes to delete from the list. Press on the blue arrow to select or deselect all items in the list.
  3. Click the Delete button.

To sort or reorder your classes:

  2. Press on classes and drag them to the desired locations in the list. Use the sample class menu at the top of the window to view the effects of your changes.

To add a term to an existing class:

We recommend that you wait until right before the start of the new term before adding a term to a class.

  1. Use the Class menu to switch to the class.
  2. From the Tool menu, choose Term Tools->Start New Term. Easy Grade Pro will automatically put a check or ‘x’ for the appropriate term in the Records window for the class. It will then switch to the new term and automatically copy the students to it from the prior term. Be sure to take a look at Working with Terms for a thorough discussion of this topic.

To rename a term:

  1. Choose Records from the Chart menu or click the Records tool .
  2. Select the Classes tab.
  3. Edit the name of the term. This change applies to all classes in a gradebook.
