August 2022 Roadmaps Update
In order to improve your experience, new functionality and features have been added! Follow the links below to learn more.
- Informed skill assignment which will allow you to assign a skill to an individual student, a group of students, or the whole class, while indicating if the student(s) are ready for the skill, not ready, or have already completed or placed out of it.
- Manage skill assignments by monitoring which students have completed the skill, change the date of the skill assignment, and delete to remove the assignment from the student’s homepage.
- The Resources section is a library of all skills available within Roadmaps. Now you are able to search for teacher primers without having to go through a student profile. A help article is under construction.
- An aggregated assessment history report can be used to view all assessments taken by the class, and filter by skill, strand, student, and more.
- Disable/enable functionality handled by your Site Admin
- Submission of help tickets defaulted to OFF - students are no longer able to send messages through HelpScout unless enabled.
- Mark as Complete/”I worked on this skill” defaulted to OFF - students are no longer able to select this checkbox on the Skills page unless enabled.
Your students will also notice some updates, namely:
- A homepage that emphasizes the skills you should work on with two sections: Your recommended skills list and Teacher Assigned skills.
- Skill resources and lessons that guide you through how to approach a skill by starting with an introductory video and ending with a reflection.
- You can now filter and sort your assessment history so you can find skills more easily.
If you have any questions about the new appearance or function of the Roadmaps platform, please reach out to our friendly Roadmaps Customer Support team by clicking on the Help Center button in the bottom right of your screen. Thanks!
