Introduction
Markbook organisation
SM-Marks Online organises your student results into a series of rows and columns. One row for each student and one column for each task that stores results.
A markbook normally stores only the results for one subject year grouping. For example, one markbook named "8 English 2012" might contain all the students in year 8 and their results for English. In each markbook you group the students into separate classes for flexibility in doing calculations and printing results.
Each task in the markbook is given a name and a maximum mark. The results stored can be any number between zero and the maximum mark, inclusively. Tasks can also store other information that can be textual in addition to just numbers.
Once raw results have been entered into tasks, additional tasks can be created that perform calculations on the raw results to produce various totals and grades.
At any time the students and results can be printed in various combinations for a permanent copy of the results produced.
