 Where is the grade book? Each course in Moodle has its own grade book which you can access by going to the grades link in the administration block. By default students see this link as well and this is where they can access their grades. Here's an example grade book in a different course. Depending on your administrator settings you might see the various elements of the grade book as a drop-down menu or as tabs across the screen or both and in the administration block itself. The first screen is the grader report where you can see the students you have and the graded activities. Note that if you have a lot of students and graded activities then as you scroll across you can still see the students names and as you scroll up and down you can still see the titles of the graded activities. The view section gives us some useful reports. Grade history for instance will allow you to see the different grades and when they were modified and by whom and single view allows you to focus on one particular student or one particular grade item. User report shows you all of the grades of one particular participant and this is what the students or learners themselves see when they go to the grades link. If you choose set-up set-up is where you can add new grade items or any existing ones and decide on your preferences and the course grade settings and in scales you can add a new scale. Standard scales are what the administrator has added but you as a teacher can add a new course scale by clicking the add a new scale button and giving it a name and then adding the items with the lowest first. Then it's available for you to use in your course for instance in an assignment. You can also import grades that you have offline as easily as pasting from a spreadsheet and you can export them in different formats if you want to print them off for instance. The grade book is very powerful in Moodle and we've only been able to see a few of its many features but hopefully it's given you an idea of what it can do for you as a teacher in your course.
