Overview of CP Reflective project Gradebook

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Toddle offers a dedicated Gradebook for the CP core component - Reflective project (RP), providing a centralized hub for educators to track and update student progress on RP, record supervision hours, and manage their grades. Coordinators can use this gradebook to access and edit RP data of all students in the selected batch, while supervisors can view and edit data only for the students they supervise.

Explore this article to learn more about the RP Gradebook.

Navigating to RP Gradebook

To begin, navigate to the Reflective project Gradebook from:

Curriculum (DP/CP) homepage → Reflective project module → Preferred year group → Gradebook

Within the Gradebook, you can view each student’s supervision hours, RP criteria-wise score and comments, final grade, and supervisor comments. Additionally, you can track and update the current status and overall progress of each student's Reflective project. Let’s explore this in detail.

Adding grades and feedback

You can update all key grading components directly in the grid view:

  • RP scores: Double-click into a criterion cell and select the appropriate level.

  • Final grade: Choose the overall grade from the dropdown in the column.

  • Student hours: Type in the total number of hours into the relevant cell.

  • Criteria-wise and overall comments: Double-click the comment icon to type in the feedback.

  • Completion status: Use the dropdown to mark a project as ‘In progress’ or ‘Completed’.

  • Overall progress: Select from dropdown options like ‘On track’, ‘Exceeding expectations’, or ‘Not quite there’. The values you see in the dropdown are based on the configuration done by your school administrator.

Viewing or editing student records in detail

You can also choose to access a more focused, student-specific view for reviewing individual records. To do so, click on the arrow icon within a student’s cell, as highlighted below.

This opens a side panel displaying the same Gradebook components for individual students in one place. This panel is particularly helpful when you want to focus on one student at a time and make edits for them.

Use the up/down arrows in the top-right corner, or navigate using the keyboard arrow keys, to move between students and update any fields. Any changes made in this window will instantly reflect in both the main Gradebook view and individual student projects.

Key features

To help you manage student projects more efficiently, the RP Gradebook offers several handy tools designed to simplify navigation, locate specific records, make edits, and export data with ease. Let’s take a look at each of these features below:

Keyboard-first navigation

When managing a large number of student projects, keyboard-first navigation can help you work quickly and avoid repetitive clicks. Here are some handy ways to navigate and input data within the Gradebook:

  • Navigate using arrow keys: Use the arrow keys on your keyboard (up, down, left, right) to move between different student and column cells.

  • Select dropdown values: For all dropdown-based fields - such as scores - press ‘Enter’ (or ‘Return’ on Mac) on a cell to open the dropdown menu and use the arrow keys to navigate and select the appropriate value. Alternatively, you can type the intended value directly into the cell, provided it corresponds to one of the pre-defined options.

  • Add comments: For criteria-specific or overall comments, pressing ‘Enter’ (or ‘Return’ on Mac) will bring up the comment window so you can type feedback without needing to click. Once done, press Enter again to save it.

  • Apply bulk updates via copy-paste or drag handle: Use Ctrl + C (or Cmd + C for Mac) to copy a value and Ctrl + V (or Cmd + V) to paste it across cells for quick bulk updates. Alternatively, select a cell and drag the fill handle (bottom-right corner of the cell) to copy the value across cells.

  • Undo recent changes: Use Ctrl + Z (or Cmd + Z on Mac) to undo recent changes instantly.

Filtering, sorting, and searching

To help you quickly locate specific records within the Gradebook, you can use the following tools:

  • Filters: Apply filters based on supervisors (only visible for coordinators), status, overall progress, and registration category to customise your view.

  • Sorting: Click the arrow icon next to the ‘Student’ column to sort entries by full name, first name, or last name in ascending or descending order.

  • Search bar: Use the search bar to find a specific student by their name.
