1. Access i-Cue on the Internet. In the Address field, type the URL address given to you by your TIES coordinator. The i-Cue login screen illustrated above will display.
Enter your District, Employee Number and Password on the
login screen. In the Go to: list
box, highlight Grades. Now click on 
. You may
see the message, Verifying i-Cue login, please wait…
2. Once your login is verified, the list of your district schools using i-Cue will display. It will be similar to the one illustrated below. Click on one of the schools.
3. An Edit Grades screen like the one illustrated above will display next. On this screen you can add or change a student’s report card grade for the displayed class if you need to do so. This grading function will be discussed in the Grading and Reporting section of the manual. From this screen you can access the Edit Grades screen for other classes, or access Attendance, Profiles of learning or Gradebook for any of your classes. This manual will not address attendance or profiles of learning.
Look at the Select a Class list in the gold bar to the left of the screen. The class currently displayed on the screen (in the example, English Term FY Period 01), is the first class in the Select a Class list. To display an Edit Grades screen for one of your other classes, point to the class in the Select a Class list and click.
To access Gradebook, click on SchoolView Gradebook, located near the bottom of the gold bar on the left of the Edit Grades screen. Once in Gradebook, you will have access to assignments for any of your classes, not just the one currently displayed on the Edit Grades screen.
Scroll down the Edit Grades page.
At the bottom of the Edit Grades screen you will see several navigation keys. These keys may be used to navigate to another screen
for the same class. For example, click on i-Attend from the English Term Period 01 Edit Grades screen to display the English 01 Attendance screen. Click on i-logout to log out of i-Cue; or click on back to top to return to the top of the currently displayed screen.
When you click on SchoolView Gradebook from Edit Grades, the SchoolView Gradebook Main menu, shown below, will display. You may receive the message Checking for roster changes, please wait…before the menu displays. This message tells you that Gradebook student class rosters are being updated automatically by your Gradebook login.
Click on one of the menu topics to view the appropriate screens. Turn to the corresponding section of this manual for further assistance with each.
1. To set up your Gradebook, start with Categories. Turn to the Categories sub-heading in the Gradebook Setup chapter.
2. Second, add assignments or other activities to your class requirements. Select Definitions on the Main menu and turn to (Assignment) Definitions, also included in the Gradebook Setup chapter.
3. To specify score ranges that qualify for each letter grade (Edit grade cutoffs), change the grade-publishing status for a course (Edit publishing status) or update a course’s class roster (Full roster refresh), select Utilities. Utilities are discussed in the Gradebook Setup chapter.
4. To assign grades to students for their assignments, select Grades. See Grading and Reporting in the manual.
5. To view a progress report of students in the class and/or print a student’s status report, select Reports and see Grading and Reporting.
6. To submit report card grades when all assignments and activities have been scored and the grading period is ended, click on the topic Submit. This step is covered in the Submission section of this manual.
7. To return to the Edit Grades screen, click on i-Cue. From Edit Grades you also can access Profiles of Learning and Attendance.
8. To log out of SchoolView, click on Log out at the top right of the screen. The i-Cue login screen will display.
Before you can enter grades, you need to add assignments, organize them into categories, (such as homework or tests), and define letter grade ranges.
First, set up your grading categories. A category is a type of graded activity you want to include in the student’s grade calculation, such as Tests, Homework, or Class Participation. To add or edit categories, choose Categories from the SchoolView Gradebook Main menu.
The Category Editor page displays. Classes taught by the teacher who logged in are shown to the left in the Class list column.[1] Click on a class from the Class list to display its categories.
Look at the categories in the illustrated example. Tests, Homework and Quizzes are included as categories automatically. The teacher has added an additional category, Worksheets.
Notice the difference in the way categories are displayed. If assignments have been defined and assigned to the category, it appears like Tests and Worksheets in the example - bolded and starred. If no assignments have been added yet, the category displays like Homework or quizzes in the example.
Before an assignment’s scores can be included in the students’ grade calculation, its category must be active. To activate a category, select its Active radio button. The Inactive radio button is the default, so be careful to select Active if you want the category included.
You can give a category more or less weight in relation to other categories. On the example, class categories are weighted so that test scores are 40% of the student’s grade, homework scores are 25%, and quizzes are 10% and worksheets 25%. The weights of the Active categories must total 100 if you use weights. If you use weighting but neglect to assign a weight value to an active category, you will be given the error message, one or more active categories is missing a weight value. Please click the Return button and enter weight value(s).
To the right of the Weight field is the Report Code field. Report Code is equivalent to Grade Type in TSIS Grade Reporting. Grade types applied to the class on the Class Grading Pattern appear in the Report Code list box. Examples of Grade Types are term grade (possibly Grade Type T) or final grade (always Grade Type ZZ). In the Category editor fields illustrated, the Tests list box is open. It contains the Grade Type T, which in this case is the code for Term Grade. The teacher wants tests included in the computation of the Term grade. He will highlight T in the Report code list box for Tests.
If a category is assigned to a Report Code, then you will be able to submit the grade calculated within that category back to TSIS.
Only assign a report code to a category if instructed by your SchoolView gradebook administrator.
When a category name is bolded and has an asterisk(*) after it, one or more Assignment Definitions have been added that use the category. Before you can delete the category, you must first delete the assignments you have assigned to the category. For example, before you can
delete Tests, you must delete Test 1 from the Assignment Definitions. To update assignments, use the Definition editor screen.
When you have edited your categories, click on 
to update the database. You will receive the message, The categories were successfully updated.
Other Options
Main Menu will return you to the SchoolView Gradebook menu where you can choose another type of Gradebook screen.
On Example Screen 1, Tests, Homework and Quizzes are already included as grade categories.
