Astronomy 1040 Gradebook


Please read all of this file before you attempt to get your grades.

Generally speaking, the Grade Report will not be available until after the third or fourth quiz. I will email everyone when it is open. The Grade Report provides an opportunity for you to check to see what grades you have received in this class up until the time the gradebook was last updated. Keep in mind that when you turn something in, it will not immediately show up in the gradebook. Also keep in mind that the "Semester Grade" and "% Earned so far" are based on limited data and are not official.  The main value in the grade report is for you to check to be sure that the items you have turned in have been recorded. 

You will need your User ID and Password. If you have not gotten your User ID and password yet, go here:

For all lecture section students, your class number is 1040001. For all online section students, your class number is 1040005. Again, for ALL Online students, your class number is 1040005. Whatever online section you are enrolled in, for the purposes of this course, all online students are considered to be in 1040005

There will be a date stamp in the grade report to tell you exactly when it was last updated. To get to your grade report, follow this link:


Online students only: You can also get the key to each of the tests you have taken online. Shortly sfter each test closes (Friday or Satuday), you may return to that test. Using the same User ID and password, click on KEY instead of BEGIN. This will give you a copy of your graded paper will all correct answers marked.
I typically grade activities on the weekend, so you should receive a grade  by Monday or Tuesday of the next week on anything you submitted the previous week. At times when I am particularly busy I don't get finished with all the grading, but you are welcome to send me an email to check.
