What are the similarities and differences between the Carmen Grades tool and the SIS Gradebook, including how information is displayed to students?
Both the Carmen Grades tool and the SIS Gradebook allow instructors to monitor progress by assignment and to obtain cumulative grade information that can then be uploaded directly to the SIS final grade roster. In both systems, you can keep track of assignments by categories, adjust the overall grading scale, weight individual assignments for the final overall grade, access your class rosters, limit students’ views of certain elements of the gradebook, create extra credit assignments, make notes for students to see, and limit students’ access to certain notes. The SIS gradebook does not allow the ability to create quizzes, auto-grade them, and have the grades populate the gradebook. The Quiz and Dropbox functions that allow students to submit assignments and automatically record them in the gradebook continue to be available in the Carmen system.
