Hello! When you edit a file, under FILE OPTIONS, it asks if I want to Add alignment to content
Can somebody explain me what that does? I cannot test it, because I have read in the institution's manual that the option is not available. Still, I am curious and would like to know.
Thank you!!
Lara
Hi Lara,
This is about learning goals in a course. You can align a goal to an assignment. A goal can be of this type: "Be able to use LSQM to create a best fit line for a given set of data." The institution has to activate the goal module and import or create the goals to be used for this tool.
Hello Lara,
I'm late to this party. I hope you have been able to get your administrator to turn on the Goals for you...if not, beg and plead! There is a wealth of free reports such as the "Course Performance" Report and the Performance Dashboard (found under the Evaluation section of the Course Management bar in your course) that will break down students' performance against each of the goals/objectives/standards you have for your course(s). You can see each student's individual break down in the performance dashboard. Each course objective is broken down in the Course Performance report and by assessment type (Discussions, Tests, Questions, etc.), student progress as well. See the images below.
Very powerful tool that all educators and trainers should be using to measure the effectiveness of their lessons and student learning.
Enjoy!
Brad
