Templates track information about the gradebook such as:
Assignments offered in each course
The categories of assignments
Grade weights between assignments
Late day policies
And grading schemas
The Grader can import templates from previous courses and apply them to the current course the teacher is viewing. The Import Template dialogue is shown in Figure 2.2.5.
Figure 2.2.5: The Import Template dialogue. Also seen is the file location of Gradebook files.
Importing and saving Templates and Gradebooks uses the same piece of dialogue. The OS will generate the window explorer for the user to navigate through the file system to find the location they want. Upon importing a template, the assignments and other features provided by Templates will appear on the current course of the gradebook.
