Check your Grade |
| |
I use a site called
Gradenetwork.com to keep track of grades. Once you are in the
class, I will add you to the gradebook and you will receive an email
notifying you of the username and password you will use to log on to
the Gradenetwork.com site. If you had a class with me in the past,
your username and password is the same as it was in the past
semester.
YOUR USERNAME:
I have to come up with usernames for everyone that have to be
between 6 and 12 characters long. Your
username will go by the following format: Your full first name and
then as much as your last name as will fit ***up to 12 characters***.
For example, my full first name is 8
characters long, so I can only add on 4 characters of my last name.
So if I were in the class, my username would be "jennifermint" -
Note: if you type more than 12 characters, you will not be able to
log on.
YOUR PASSWORD:
Your password will be your first initial, last initial and the last
4 digits of your social security number.
(For example, my password would be "jm0888")
ONCE LOGGED ON:
Once you are logged on, click on "Grade Summary" and you can check
your grade for all of the classes for which you have me as a
professor.
Still have a question about something
on Gradenetwork? Click
here for answers to some "Frequently Asked Questions" I've received
in the past.
***If you experience any problems
logging on to check your grades, please email me and I will try to
rectify the problem as soon as possible.***
