Promoting Student Agency with the new My Lesson Dashboard
Giving students the tools to monitor and track their own lesson completion and performance allows them to take control of their learning. The new My Lessons Dashboard provides students with information on lesson status (completed vs. not started vs. in progress) and includes grades for any scored lesson steps. New icons and sortable columns help students easily find the work that needs to be completed and linked lesson steps help students jump right into the lesson and finish any incomplete assignments.
The Dashboard has 4 tabs: Class Lessons, Not Started, In Progress, and Completed
- Search bar: allows students to search within that page
- To clear, press Search again!
Class Lessons
Under this tab there are 6 options: Lesson, Lesson Type, Assigned, Next Step, Featured and Due. When you enter the page, it is sorted by most recent and teacher-assigned first. Students can adjust this by selecting the arrow next to either 'Assigned' or 'Featured' to sort accordingly!
