To access the Gradebook click the Gradebook link at the top left.
The gradebook has two three views, Student, Gradable Items, List View and Grid View, Grades you can click on the view toggle to change it.
In List View, you can choose between listing all gradable items or all students. 
If you choose Gradable Items, you can click on the assignment to grade it.
If you are looking at Students, you can click on the student to view and edit all that student's grades.
Grid View Grades view is more like a traditional gradebook. You'll see your students as rows and the assignments in columns.
To grade a student's work, you can click the Grade Now button. After you grade a student's work, you'll need to post the grade so that they can see it. Click the grade and choose Post.
To post all grades for a particular assignment, click that assignment and choose post.
Adding Columns
Just like with the original Grade Center, any tests or assignments collected in Scholar automatically get columns. You should NOT add gradebook columns for these items. If you want to add a column for something that is collected outside of Scholar, hover where you'd like it in either the Gradable Items view or the Grid View and click the plus sign. Then choose "Add Item".
Once you do that, the column information popup will appear on the right.
Give the column a name.
Next, you can control whether the column is visible to students and set a due date for the non-Scholar assignment.
You can choose whether you're displaying the grade on percentage, points, or a letter, and how many total points the assignment will be.
Finally, choose the grade category that you want the assignment to be in. This is especially important with how the Ultra Gradebook does calculations.
Click Save at the bottom and the column will be created.

You can change the translation of percentages to letter grades by clicking the grade schema link.
If you've set up an overall grade, you can set notifications to come to you and your students when their grade falls below a percentage you choose and/or they've been inactive for a certain amount of time.
You can have Scholar automatically assign zeroes to students that don't submit assignments by the listed due date. These grades can be updated later, and students with accommodations will not be penalized.
Click "Manage overall grade settings" to set up the overall grade. This will be discussed in a later section.
Next you can control the categories in the Gradebook. Scholar has several built-in categories, but you can add your own by clicking Add New Category.
Type a name and press enter.
You can change the name of or delete a category that you create by clicking the three dots next to that category.
Overall Grade
The overall grade is completely different from how it worked in the Original Grade Center. If you haven't set up an overall grade for the course, there will be a button at the bottom of your Gradebook. Otherwise, you can click the link in your Gradebook options.
Overall grades can be calculated by weighted percentages, total points, or advanced calculations. The first time you set up the overall grade, you'll be asked which you want to use. If you want to use advanced calculations, please contact Academic Technologies for assistance.
If you click the wrong grading type, you can change it with the toggles at the top.
