You-Attend Gradebook Integration

Overview

The You-Attend widget can be integrated with the Brightspace Gradebook. Once the integration has been completed, a grade item will be created in the Gradebook. Whenever a student entry is created or updated the widget will run a process that will recalculate the student’s score and update the value in the gradebook. If at any time the gradebook seems out of sync with the You-Attend widget use the “Update Grades” button in the Instructor view to run a process that will update all student grades.

Description

Export to Excel

The “Export to Excel” button does what you probably expect. It exports all student attendance entries to a downloadable Microsoft Excel file. The first sheet, or “Home” sheet will contain data about the course attendance overall. The rest of the sheets contain detailed student data, with a sheet for each student.

  2. Entries Summary - The entries summary table provides data for each Attendance Code.

Student Sheets

  1. Entry Totals – The student’s entries are totaled by Attendance Code.
  2. Attendance Stats – The student’s entries are totaled by days of the week. 
  3. Entries By Date – The student’s entries are listed including: the date, entry status, any notes entered and the IP Address from where the entry was made.

Accessing You-Attend Course Settings

Use the “Course Settings” button to return to the You-Attend course settings at any time. The settings can be changed without any issues with one caveat, if you change the Grade Entry Name you must also change the grade item name in the Brightspace Gradebook. Otherwise the widget will create a new grade item.
