Q:     How to Enter Independent Assessments.
A:
How to Enter Independent Assessments...


When Grading Both the Assessment and the Learning Targets


  • Create one event (Type will be Independent)
    • Name the event
    • Set max score as points if applicable
    • Set the Type as Independent
    • DO NOT add the domains and standards
    • This will post your event in the Independent Assessment section on the grade book report
  • Create another event with the same name
    • Set Max Score as Letter: P
    • DO NOT indicate a Type (the drop down should read: "Choose Type")
    • Add your domains and standards to this event
    • This will post this information in the Learning Path section on the grade book report

Example:  An assessment called Short Story which is a Term-Paper in Writing

  • Create an event called "Short Story"
    • Max score: 100
    • Category: Term-Paper
    • Type: Independent
  • Next, create an event called "Short Story" again
    • Max score: P
    • Category: Term-Paper
    • Type: None (the drop down should read: "Choose Type")
    • Domains and Targets:

      • Writing: TEXT TYPE AND PURPOSES
