Spring 2012 grades are due May 29, 2012 at noon. Please be sure to submit your grades on time so the students' transcripts and the probation/suspension reports will be accurate.
A last date of attendance is required for all “W” and “F” grades. If a student completed the class and failed you should use the date of your last class meeting as the last date of attendance.
If a student never attended and you indicated this when you turned in your attendance, you do not need to put a last date of attendance for an “F” or a “W”. The Financial Aid Office needs the last date of attendance for all withdrawn students and all students who receive an “F” regardless of whether they never attended or attended and took the final exam.
If you need to assign an Incomplete (“I”) be sure to have an incomplete contract form filled out. This contract will include the requirements to complete the course and the alternate grade that will be assigned if the work is not completed. These forms are available in your department and should be turned in to your Department Chair by May 30. Students should not be told to register and attend the class a second time to fulfill an incomplete grade.
If you assigned an “I” grade for the spring 2011 semester, that “I” needs to be converted to the alternate grade by May 29. The one year deadline for the spring 2010 incompletes is here!
You may submit your grades piecemeal. Don’t hold up an entire class worth of grades for just one or two people who are late turning in projects. You may enter grades for just a few people at a time. Only the grades that have been submitted will roll into academic history.
Grade changes must still be done on the Academic Grade Change form and be signed by the Department Chair. You cannot do grade changes online or via email.
You do not need to contact R & R to see if your grades ‘took’. Simply get out of your grading form and then return to it. If the grades are displayed then you can rest assured that they took and will be automatically rolling to academic history. Be sure to check EACH PAGE of your grade roster to make sure the entire class is graded.
If you have questions regarding grading or need to let us know information regarding a student, i.e. the student withdrew but the “W” is not showing on your grading form, please contact us at <mailto:gradenotes@monroecc.edu>.
Our biggest problem with grading in Banner is remembering to input the last date of attendance for all students with an “F” or “W” grade. The system will not allow you to go back into the record and input the last date of attendance so if you fail to enter it when you enter the student’s grade, you will need to contact us at <mailto:gradenotes@monroecc.edu> and we will have to input it one student at a time.
Happy Grading!
