Deploying the .ASP type lesson allows us to view student performance results on-line for the lesson currently being deployed.
To make this functionality available, the Digital Teacher web application comes with the following three files. See Digital Teacher Web Application file list for more details about the files included.
- dtLoginNT.htm (teacher login page) - dtGradeSelect.asp (gradebook selection list) - dtGradeBook.asp (online gradebook)
The teacher login allows us (or other authorized teachers) to access the Digital Teacher gradebook selection list page, from which we can access the gradebook for a selected lesson. To access, we need
The Site Password (case sensitive) prevents unauthorized people from accessing the grade books. If you are a site-licensed user, your organization’s network administrator or the web master can create the password for all teachers/instructors in your site. This password is defined and checked in the dtGradeSelect.asp file.
The Teacher Name (case sensitive) is either an individual or organization's name under which the Digital Teacher license has been issued
The Teacher Password (case sensitive) is the password that is defined in the Digital Teacher authoring program. For example, if multiple teachers in your organization use each (licensed) copy of Digital Teacher, your password can be different from the other's.
Once we access the Digital Teacher gradebook selection list, we can move from one folder to another that contains our lessons. Then, by clicking a lesson name, we can open the gradebook for the lesson. (Note: Clicking a lesson name does not load the lesson itself. It loads the gradebook for the lesson.)
When we click a lesson name, our Teacher Password is checked to see if we have the right to access the lesson we have chosen. That is, if the lesson we attempt to access the gradebook for was not created by us, we will not be allowed to open the gradebook.
The gradebook in the figure shows that we have three students participating in the Final Exam lesson. Of the three students, Donald Duck has completed the exam. Mickey Mouse is taking it now. Bugs Bunny hasn't been logged in yet.
The IDs of the students who have completed the lesson become clickable. By clicking the link,
we can view the student's performance results in more details.
Also, read Chapter 9: Performance Report and Grade Book to see how to change the look of the gradebook.
The Performance Report is the score report for an individual student. The report shows the score point on each question, and the grade average point in a single lesson.
All the student results can also be added to your Digital Teacher authoring program's
student database (school.adb) so that you can perform various analyses, and print reports.
