For assessments, you can view student work in real time in the Teacher dashboard.

The Teacher dashboard has four tabs at the top, each of which we will dive into here.

In addition to these views, the Teacher dashboard also includes facilitation tools, including the classroom facilitation tools and written feedback.

The first tab in the upper right of the dashboard provides access to snapshots of student work and any snapshot albums you’ve created.

When you open a dashboard, you will first see the Summary view. Here you will see a row for each student in the activity session, along with a quick overview of where they are in the activity and a symbol to let you know more about their work on that screen.

You can click on any of these boxes to see the current state of the student’s screen.

Student work is scored automatically. View the scores in the Summary view:

In the dashboard, you can use the Teacher view to answer questions like:

If the screen has components that have correctness, you can check the Show Correctness checkbox in the upper right of the screen. This will add icons to pieces of work showing whether they are correct or incorrect.

You can also leave written feedback, and create and present albums of snapshots from the Teacher view by selecting the student response checkboxes.

After you assign an assessment to a class, you can pull students into the assessment with just one click.

When you want to start an assessment with all enrolled students who are logged into the Amplify or Desmos curriculum, click the Pull to lesson button. Those students who are logged in will be pulled in immediately.

Pulling your students to an assessment is a one-time action, and students that join the lesson are automatically brought to Screen 1 (unless Sync to Me is set to another screen or pacing is on).

In an assigned assessment, click the Pull to lesson button at the top left of the dashboard.

After you click the button it will change to say “Pulling…” for 5 seconds while students are being redirected to the assessment. If not all students are present when you click, the Pull to lesson button will reappear, and you can click it again.

When all students are present in the lesson, the “Pulling…” message disappears and an “All present!” message displays.

After 3 seconds, “All present!” will disappear, and that space will be blank.

When students are pulled into an assessment, they are automatically brought to Screen 1. If you would like students to enter the lesson to another screen, you can use the Sync to Me feature.

You can click Sync to Me to bring students to whichever screen you are on. For example, if you are on Screen 5 when you click Sync to Me, your students will bypass Screen 1 and will go directly to Screen 5.

Once you have activated Sync to Me, the button will change to Synced.

When Sync to Me is on and you navigate to another screen, students are pulled with you.

For example, if you have Sync to Me on and navigate from Screen 5 to Screen 10, students are also pulled to Screen 10.

While students will remain synced with you until you turn Sync to Me off, they are not locked into the lesson itself, and can navigate out.

If a screen has components with correctness, you can now select a Show Correctness checkbox in the Teacher view to see the correctness for each response on that screen.

When looking at an individual student’s response, there’s a Correctness button in the header that shows the correctness for each component on the screen.

Use the Student view to preview screens for students. For example, you might work through a screen together with the class or talk through upcoming screens before students work on their own.
