Step 1: Teacher Preferences
Teacher preferences will define what Zangle Gradebook looks like when you log-in. It also defines some default settings that tell Zangle Gradebook how to function. Your Teacher Preferences automatically apply to all of your classes.

Step 2: Class Options
Although you must set class options for each of your classes, you may apply your settings to all classes at one time.
Class options define how your gradebook will calculate grades in your class. They also define what information is displayed in the Parent and Student modules. There is an important setting here if you weigh your grades. This is also where you come to change which marking period is being displayed in Parent & Student Connect. |

Step 3: Grading Scale
Since our school board policy defines our grading scale for us, you don't have a lot to set up here.
Like the class options, you can apply the set-up to all of your classes at one time. |
|
Step 4: Assignment Categories
All teachers must set up at least two categories to facilitate creating reports for students performance on daily work vs. assessments.
If you weigh your grades, this is the step in which you set-up your weights. Like the class options and grading scales, you can apply the set-up to all of your classes at one time. |

Step 5: Scoring Options
This step in the setup allows teachers to set scoring options for different situations.
This is the step where you will set up the code to excuse a student from having to complete an assignment. You can also specify options for late submission, absent etc. |
