Gradebook - How do you build and manage a gradebook?

When using an online gradebook, it is important to manage non-submissions. If you don't submit a zero score, that assignment will not be contributing to the student's overall grade. You can do this two ways.

Option 1: Set a Default Grade Links to an external site. - After you have finished grading an individual assignment, use this to submit zeros for non-submissions.  Be sure to NOT check the "overwrite" box.  You can also use this feature to give everyone credit for an assignment.

Option 2: Treat Ungraded as Zero Links to an external site. - This works well at the end of the course, to make sure you didn't miss any non-submissions in the class.
