From viewing learner results to examining the balance of objectives on an assessment, Elentra's tools and reports can help faculty make important decisions about student progress and their school wide assessment plan.
How to see an overview of grades within a course (Grade Spreadsheet)
Navigate to Admin > Manage Courses.
Search for a course as needed.
Click the cog icon to the right of the course name and select Gradebook.
Ensure you are in the correct curriculum period and adjust using the period selector in the top right if needed. (The current curriculum period will display by default.)
Click 'Grade Spreadsheet' at the bottom right of the page. You will see a list of a learners, their id number, each assessment, any existing collections, the weight of all assessments per learner, and a weighted total.
Numbers in the Weight column will display in red if the total gradebook weight for a learner is different than 100.
For any column with results, if a marking scheme and grading scale were set both will be displayed to the user.
You can adjust grades from this screen by typing in revised scores.
Please note that although the individual mark and grade will update immediately, to update the entire row (and therefore recalculate the weighted total) you must click 'Refresh' in the top right.
Limit the view to one student by typing their name into the search bar in the top right. This can be useful in learner conferences or when reporting to committees.
Optionally export a CSV from this view.
Click 'Close' in the top right to close the window and return to the Gradebook Assessments list.
