{bgcolor:E6E6FA} h3. The Section Gradebook {bgcolor}
The Section Gradebook is accessed through the section subsite(s). It displays only the participants in a particular section. The Section Gradebook does not prevent Graders or TAs from viewing the whole class Gradebook or sections other than their own, it merely allows them to focus in on the section to which they've been assigned. Calculations and histograms display section-based data in the section-filtered Gradebook.
h5. Directions to Add a Section Gradebook:
# Choose a section from the left-hand navigation bar.
# Click 'Website Setting' on the navigation bar.
# Click 'Navigation Bar' at the top of the screen.
# Check the box next to "Section Gradebook"
# Click 'Submit'.
#* If 'Section Gradebook' does not appear:
#*# Click 'Advanced Mode'.
#*# Type "Section Gradebook" in a blank field
#*# In the adjacent field type "Gradebook" and check the corresponding checkbox
#*# Click 'Submit'.
{info:title=Note}
* This process must be repeated for each section you wish to add the section Gradebook to.
* Permissions in sections depend on permissions for master Gradebook, in order to see a section, TAs and Graders must have access to the master Gradebook.
* A Gradebook must be added to the master site and sections must be created before adding the section Gradebook link to sections.
* Assignments in Gradebook are global. There are no section-specific assignments or exams.
