Manage Students

Students are added to the grade book by selecting a class for which you are the instructor of record. You can also track scores for students not listed in an official class list by adding a group that contains the students' UW NetIDs.

To add students to the grade book follow the steps below:

1. From the GradeBook home page click the name of the grade book that you want to edit. You will move to the main view of the grade book.
2. Click Manage in the global navigation in the upper right.
3. Under the heading "Students," click Edit.
4. To add a class or section of students to the grade book, select the Classes tab. A list of the classes you are teaching is displayed, organized by quarter.
5. Select or deselect classes or sections. An official list of students will be added to grade book for each class or section you choose. This list is automatically updated as students add, drop, or withdraw.
   GradeBook displays the classes for which you are the instructor of record. If you do not see the class you are teaching, please contact your department's time schedule coordinator. If you do not see your class, or do not want to select one, you can skip this step and complete it later. You can also add students to the grade book by creating and attaching a group.
   Removing a class will not delete those students' scores from the grade book. Students who are removed from the grade book are marked as dropped. Dropped students can be shown or hidden on the main view of the grade book using the "Show students" drop-down menu.
6. If there are other official instructors for the class you selected, an "Add Instructors as Administrators?" dialog box will appear. Click Yes to add those listed as administrators on your grade book. Click Not now to continue creating the grade book without additional administrators. You can also add administrators (either the official instructors or other assistants) to the grade book later.
7. To add a group of students to the grade book, select the Groups tab, and then select an existing group, or click Create new group to make a group of students.
   View the related documents on the right to learn more about creating groups.
   In order to submit grades to the registrar, a class list must be selected. Submission of grades to the registrar will not be allowed for students added to the grade book using groups.
8. When you are done managing students, click Save to retain your changes, or click Cancel to discard your changes.
