Instructors can choose to use either gradebook tool -- or BOTH! The two Gradebook tools share the same data, so you can do some tasks in one tool and the data will appear in the other. For example, you can set up categories, weights, and items in Gradebook Classic, and then use the newer Gradebook tool for entering grades if you like.
