From AccelTest’s Getting Started window, click the [Gradebook] button. The Gradebook drop-
down menu provides access to many key Gradebook functions.
When you start using AccelTest for the first time, you will need to do this in Gradebook:
• First, you must create your class sections. See“New Section” on page 39.
• Next, enter your students. See the New Students section below.
New Students
Note: To save time, you should create your class
sections before you add or import students. See“New
Section” on page 39.
If you are adding students who are already in a
database that you can import into AccelTest, see
“Importing Student Data into AccelTest” on page 36.
1. If you need to add new students who are not in a
database at your school, go to the Gradebook menu
and click New Students.
2. In the New Students dialog box, under the Names
tab, type in each student’s name in the “First Name”
and “Last Name” boxes. Click [Add] and repeat for each student you are adding.
Note: If you will be adding the student(s) to a class section, add all the students for the class section at one
time, then go to step 3 to select the class section. If you are not adding the students to a class section, go to
step 4.
3. If you want to add the students to a class section at this time, click the Sections tab.
Under “Sections to choose from,” click on the class section you want. Click [Add].
Click OK.
4. Repeat steps 1 - 3 to add more students. When you have finished adding students click [OK].
