Student Results Maintenance - Mark Book tab

Use the Mark Book tab to record results for mark book areas of assessment for the selected class. For example, topic tests and assignments that are not usually part of the mainstream class assessment. These assessments are not usually printed on semester reports but can be.

Student mark book results are stored for each reporting period so that you can enter a fresh set of results each period or term if required. The setup of mark book areas is linked to classes and can be copied across reporting periods throughout the year if required, provided that the correct semester or term creation rules have been set up.

See Maintaining student file semesters in the Curriculum manual.

Example of using a mark book

For example, for Art the main required assessment areas might be:

The art teacher has held several topic tests and recorded student attitudes towards class. The teacher wants to record the test and project results somewhere on the system so that they can be archived but not printed on the normal end of term report.

Note: If the results have been exported from the network version of Synergetic, you can work on them after you re-import them or unlock the class. See Unlocking exported classes.
