Gradebook Assessment Column Switch

As a group of schools, we have standardised all of our assessment short names to adhere to our reporting, transcript and PowerBi requirements.

We then leave the assessment name field for the school to personalise to make it user friendly. Would it be possible to add a switch to allow schools to display the assessment column name instead of the shortname.

This would help with teachers as a visual aid rather than having to hover over the shortname.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your feedback. We are currently finalizing the development of a report tagging configuration area within the Gradebook module. This is the first step in a larger initiative to integrate report tagging with the Curriculum Manager module.

    In Curriculum Manager, you'll be able to create and manage Gradebooks for multiple classes within a templating area. Our goal is to extend the report tagging configuration from the Gradebook to Curriculum Manager, so that these tags are automatically applied to all Gradebooks on a column-by-column basis. For example, if you have a particular column that is important for reporting purposes, you can apply a tag to that column. Systems like Reports Manager and Central will then be able to capture this for end-user reports and Power BI analytics. This will allow you to report on the column itself while maintaining flexibility with naming conventions that are more user-friendly.

    Many thanks

    Shawn



    Please let me know if this approach would address your concerns, or if you have any further feedback. Curriculum Manager is on track to be released for beta testing in the next couple of months, and we hope these features will meet the requirements you're looking to address.
