MIS Course Gradebook - Learnboost.com

I decided to stay with Learnboost.com for atleast one more semester.

On September 17, 2013, LeanBoost.com sent you an email with an activation code. Follow the email directions to active your account. The code is only good for about 1 week.

Check your email spam and trash folders to make sure the email was not rerouted into one of those folders.

You will need Learnboost to check your grades during the course. If I make an entry mistake, you can correct it by emailing proof that I am wrong.

My grade book grades will be used to calculate your final grade. Your final grade is based on using the syllabus formula and your grades hosted on learnboost.

So you do not need to ask me how to calculate your grade. This is not high school or middle school. You can do it anytime, yourself.

Exam Web Site: Your Login Email for Class Marker

If you submitted your information via the course form (See first Blog), you should have received an email from http://www.Classmarker.com with your username and password on Either August 25th or September 18th.

If you do not see the email, check your spam and trash folders. You will need this to take course quizzes and exams next week.

I suggest you access this account quickly, as you will need  it to access both quizzes next week.

You should be able to log-in now and see an exam (Alvin Toffler) that is available for you to take now. You do NOT need to take that exam. You can take it, just to see who the process works. The grade will not count.

Any questions, text me at 4045090533.
