Dear Colleagues,<br><br>
Please see the below copy of a message that will be distributed to <br>
faculty via Scotmail today regarding the use of iGrade, the UCR<br>
electronic grading system. <br><br>
Your assistance in assuring that all instructors in your unit are<br>
aware of the availability of iGrade as well as its associated deadlines
<br>
for sign-up and grade submission would be greatly appreciated. In<br>
particularly, visiting faculty and lecturers who may not be regular<br>
users of a campus webmail account may not receive or regularly<br>
review Scotmail and could benefit from a reminder from you.<br><br>
<br>
Sincerely<br><br>
Renita Kearney<br>
Assistant Registrar<br><br>

Dear UCR Faculty,<br>
<br>
The timeliness of grade submission is a critical component to the
continual academic progress of students and the Registrars Office
appreciates your support in this effort. We have seen a steady
increase in the number of faculty utilizing the iGrade system and, with
the support from the colleges, are beginning the transition to one grade
submission process through iGrade.<br>
<div align="center"><b> <br>
With Spring quarter fully underway, please take the time to reacquaint
yourself with iGrade.</b></font> <br>

Some advantages to using iGrade:
<ol>
<li>You'll have less paperwork.
<li>You'll be able to submit grades from anywhere (as long as there is
Internet access).
<li>Your students' grades will be available immediately upon your
submission.
<li>If you have your grades in Excel, you can load your grades directly
from Excel to iGrade.
<li>You will receive an email confirming your submission of grades via
iGrade.
</ol> <br>
To take advantage of the electronic grade submission in iGrade, please
log into iGrade and change your grading preference <b>prior to</b>
<b>Friday, May 23, 2008 at 06:00 p.m. </b>To do so:<br>
<i>**Please note: if you changed your global default to
iGrade in a previous quarter, your selection will carry to the current
quarter** <br>
<br>
</i>1. Log in at
<a href="http://igrade.ucr.edu/">http://igrade.ucr.edu</a> using your UCR
Net ID and password.<br>
2. Select the iGrade option in the "Submit
Method" column. (You'll notice that all classes have been
preset to "Paper," so you must click on the "iGrade"
option to utilize the electronic submission.) Please do this for
each class.<br>
<b><i>3. Please note that grade method choices
for the Spring Quarter 2008 must be submitted before Friday, May 23, 2008
