Guide
+
+ This page provides a quick guide to using the Classroom Compliance
+ application.
+
+
+
+
Classes
+
+ In Classroom Compliance, all your students' data is linked to a
+ particular class. You'll start by clicking Add Class for
+ each class you teach. It doesn't really matter if your school uses a block
+ schedule or daily period schedule; each class just needs a number and
+ school year to identify it.
+
+
+ You can view all your classes with the View My Classes
+ link at the top of this page. Click on any of the classes you see listed,
+ and you'll go to that class' page.
+
+
+
The Class Page
+
+ This is the main page you'll be working with in Classroom Compliance.
+ Here, you'll find actions to add / remove / edit the list of students in
+ the class, add notes to the class, and most importantly, record students'
+ attendance, behavior, and phone compliance.
+
+
+ The following actions are available here:
+
+
+ - Add Student - Add a student to the class.
+ - Import Students - Import a list of students in bulk. This is useful when you've just created
+ a class, and you want to copy and paste a list of student names from a spreadsheet.
+ - Clear Assigned Desks - Resets every student's assigned desk. Useful if you've just removed
+ assigned seats or are reshuffling everyone.
+ - Delete this Class - Pretty self-explanatory. This will permanently delete this class. This
+ CANNOT be undone, so be careful to only delete the class when you're sure you won't need it anymore.
+
+
+
Notes
+
+ Sometimes, you might want to write a note to remind yourself of something for a class. Write a note in the text
+ box, then click Add Note to add the note.
+
+
+
+
Entries
+
+ The main point of Classroom Compliance is to make it easy to keep track of each student's behavior,
+ attendance, and phone usage. On each class' page, you'll find a large table with a row for each student, and a
+ column for each day of the week. This is the Entries Table.
+
+
+ Simply click the "+" icon to add an entry for a student, or click on the day's "+" icon to add an entry for each
+ student that day. Then, just click the emoji to edit the entry. A sample entry is included below for you to play
+ around with.
+
+
+
+ - Attendance: {{ EMOJI_PRESENT }} for present, and {{ EMOJI_ABSENT }} for absent.
+ - Phone Compliance: {{ EMOJI_PHONE_COMPLIANT }} for compliant, and {{ EMOJI_PHONE_NONCOMPLIANT }} for
+ non-compliant.
+ - Behavior: {{ EMOJI_BEHAVIOR_GOOD }} for good behavior, {{ EMOJI_BEHAVIOR_MEDIOCRE }} for mediocre, and {{
+ EMOJI_BEHAVIOR_POOR }} for poor.
+ - If you'd like to add a comment, click 💬 and enter your comment in the popup.
+ - Click the 🗑️ to remove the entry.
+ - Note that if a student is absent, you can't add any phone or behavior information.
+
+
+ When editing, changed entries are highlighted, and you need to click Save or Discard
+ Edits to save or discard your changes, respectively.
+
+
+
Table Views
+
+ Above the Entries Table, there's a selection of views to choose from. By default, Full
+ View is selected.
+
+
+ - Full View - Shows a full week's entries for all students, including their scores.
+ - Grading View - Only show students and their scores. Useful when transferring grades to
+ another system.
+ - Whiteboard View - Only shows student names and their assigned desks. Useful for showing to
+ your class so they know their assigned seats.
+ - Today View - Same as the Full View, but only shows today, which can be useful when entering
+ data for a class.
+
+
+
Scores
+
+ Students' scores are calculated per week. The calculation is shown below:
+
+
+ phone_score * 0.3 + behavior_score * 0.7
where
+
+
+ phone_score = days_compliant / days_present
+ behavior_score = (good_days * 1.0 + mediocre_days * 0.5) / days_present
+
+
+
+
Adding / Editing Students
+
+ As mentioned briefly in The Class Page, you can add students one-by-one, or in bulk.
+
+
+ When adding a student individually, or editing an existing student, here's what you need to know:
+
+
+ - Each student in a class needs a unique name. Unless you have twins with the same first name,
+ this shouldn't be an issue.
+ - If a student has an assigned desk number, you can set it. Set the desk number to 0 if there's no assigned
+ seating for the student.
+ - To preserve a record of students who have since been removed from a class, you can check the
+ Removed checkbox to indicate that the student is no longer in the class. Their old data will
+ still show up, but you can't add any new entries for them.
+
+ -
+ The Move to another class button will, as its name implies, move the student to another one of
+ your classes.
