This way, the scores do not need to be in the same order as the students in your gradebook. The student names must be there to insure that each score is given to the correct student. So make sure you have them! Unlike the desktop app, you cannot import just a list of scores. So, for example, you could have the following import file: Chapter 7 Homework Tests 100 3456 Amy AlbriBarbara BravCathy Cunningham 97 The tabs before the assignment name, category, and points possible are what allows Gradekeeper to determine that you are importing an assignment and not additional students. Each line of assignment information must be preceded by empty items matching up with the student names you will be importing scores for later in the file. Even an extra space can throw things off. While Gradekeeper can often figure out student names if the imported name is last name, first name, and the student name in the gradebook is first name last name, it is best if the student names match exactly. The student name, if included, must match a student in the gradebook. The student id, if included, must exactly match. The student name in the import file will be matched with a student in the gradebook, and that student will be given the imported score. The student names can be any of the formats used when importing students, as described above. Each following line should be a student followed by their score on that assignment. If the points possible is missing, 100 points will be used. If the category is missing, the first category will be used. The category must be a category that is already set up in the class. You can optionally include the category name and the points possible after that. When you are importing assignments, the first 1-3 lines must be the assignment information. Gradekeeper will figure out which format you are using to import the student. So, for a text file, importing Amy Albright, could look like any of the following: 1234 Amy Albright 1234 Albright, Amy 1234 Amy Albright Amy Albright Albright, Amy Amy Albright Additionally, you can add an email address after each student name. The name can be one item, either first name last name or last name, first name (the comma is very important!), or the name can be two separate items, the first name, then the last name. The student id should be first, followed by the student name. When importing students, each line in the text or csv file should have one student. The import will always go into the currently open class, so if you want to create a new class and import your roster, be sure to create the new class first by clicking the + button on the top left. When you open a text or csv file, Gradekeeper will determine whether you are importing students or an assignment. Open the text file with Excel, insert a blank row, and paste a column of addresses you have saved elsewhere. As mentioned in my post about the new version of the web app, you can now import an assignment from a text or csv file. After exporting to text from Gradekeeper, edit the text file and add an email address for each student.
