Performance Category Management automatically assigns a label (a performance category) and optionally its description to each Learner's overall performance in a certain Activity. With Performance Category Setup you can create custom performance categories related to a certain Activity. Based on their performance throughout the Activity, Learners will be categorized.
In order to assign a category to the performance of each individual, you have to specify the categories for the Activity. On the Performance Category Setup page, you can name the categories, enter their description and specify the requirement sets.
Note
Two category tables are displayed by default: Category #1: New Category and Category Failed. Each added category is numbered sequentially and is presented in its own panel.
Important
Requirements are made up of two parts in the categories.
- Scope: the kind of score the requirement is about.
- Check Value: the value the particular score should be compared to. This could be an absolute (50%) or a relative value (class average - 2 STDEV).
The Scope and the Check Value are always separated by the > sign, indicating that the selected score should be greater than the selected check value to fulfill the requirement.
You can set the Scope for the
- Activity level,
- Case level,
- Skill area level.
When reviewing reports, the performance category labels are assigned to each student based on their performance and show on the reports page.
You can see the performance category on the Performance Matrix page, on the Grade Report page, and on the Skill Report page – or on the Group performance Report by Section if set so in the Activity Reporting setup.
