Download Gradebook for use with MS Excel
Q: I need to be able to see the gradebook. The WebCT view of it is too cumbersome. Is there a way to change the view?
A. There is no view change, but you CAN download the grade book to a .csv file which can then be imported and viewed in Excel.

NOTE - If you don't need to reupload the gradebook once you have made your changes in Excel, you can copy / paste the data. (thanks to Myra and Dan for this info):
  1. Select all of the information in the WebCT gradebook (Shift drag from the the first column heading to the last grade).
  2. Click Edit > Copy from the Internet Explorer menu
  3. Run Excel
  4. Click Edit > Paste Special > Values from the Excel menu
  5. Delete any unnecessary rows that pasted as part of the copy / paste.
 
Be sure and check the results, columns can co-mingle when you do the above method.
