Did You Know?
Collecting an offline file
- If working with an offline file you need only collect it from the Accelerus database once. From then on, each time you make changes to your offline file, or at the beginning of a new reporting cycle, such as a new year, just synchronise your existing offline file with the database.
- Once you have collected and logged in to your offline file, each time you open Accelerus to the Accelerus Login screen, the offline file will be listed as the most recently used file and you can then login to it.
Reordering your assessment item columns
- You can change the order of your assessment item columns by clicking on the assessment item's column heading and then dragging the column into the required order
Class Assessment Items
- Did you know that you can create your own assessment items to record results for students? Go to the Results menu, select Class Assessment Items > New Class Assessment Item or click on the icon in the Toolbar. Enter a code, description and marking scheme. The marking scheme determines the results you can give for the assessment.
