OVERVIEW AND SYSTEM REQUIREMENTSWith Easy Grade Pro you can create an electronic gradebook which,

like a paper gradebook, can be used to store student information for all of your classes and subjects. Better than a paper gradebook, an Easy Grade Pro gradebook provides an

abundance of tools to save you time, provides you with a wealth of information, and allows you to generate professional paper and internet reports.

REPORTSSelect the Options tab and set the Edline Upload Reports Options:

• The Edline Report/Folder Name is the name of the folder to hold the reports on Edline. This name will be visible to viewers. You can use one or more folders for different reports such as Quarter 1 Reports, Quarter 2 Reports, Final Reports, Missing Work Reports, November Grades, etc. If you want to upload reports that replace older reports for your student, use the same name for the folder. If you want to upload reports that do not replace older reports, use a new folder name.

Click the Upload button. Easy Grade Pro will open your web browser to the Edline server and send the reports. You may be prompted to enter your Edline screen name and password.

You will get a status report telling you the number of reports sent. It will tell you the number of reports added (i.e. sent for the first time), the number updated (i.e. that overwrote an existing report for the student), and the number that had errors. Below this you will see an explanation for each error that occurred. You should fix any errors and then re-send reports for the students who had errors.

Click the folder name to open it. You will see the name of each student for whom this report was sent from Easy Grade Pro. Click the student’s name to see the report. The report will look the same as it did in the Internet/Edline window in Easy Grade Pro.
