Topnotch Gradebook Description

Topnotch Gradebook is designed to run inside a spreadsheet application such as Microsoft Excel. The grades for each class are maintained in separate files on your computer which also contain the entire gradebook program. This makes it very easy to transfer your gradebook from one computer to another or to switch among Microsoft Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.

When you purchase a license for any edition of Topnotch Gradebook, you will be given the freedom to make as many copies of the file as you need. Probably the best way to use the gradebook is to create a new file for each class you teach. If you teach multiple classes with the same grading structure, you can even make your own template by saving a copy of the file after entering your setup information. Each individual copy of the gradebook will allow you to record grades for a group of up to 60 students. If you have more than 60 students in a class, you can easily make another copy to handle the additional students.

The Full Edition

The Full Edition allows you to manage up to 105 grades distributed virtually any way you wish among up to 12 categories.  You can keep up to 25 assignment grades, distributed among 10 categories, on a single worksheet. In addition, you can create 2 more categories for managing larger groups of grades for the same students on 2 separate worksheets. One worksheet (called "BC1") holds up to 50 assignment grades, while the other ("BC2") holds up to 30. Finally, the gradebook also includes the ability to record grades for a bonus assignment, which can allow you to add percentage points to your students' final grades.
