Xitracs provides a simple and intuitive way for teaching faculty to add student score information at a course section level. Scores relate to outcomes that have been mapped or optionally selected.

Entry of this scoring information is via the Xitracs Portal.

 

The aggregate counts of, for example, Met, Not Met or Above1 can then be added, either by manually keying the data or by linking the assessment to a gradebook column in the Learning Management System (LMS)2.

For systems with the Student-level Data (SLD) option, individual student scores can be added directly, via rubric or via the LMS. See also Outcomes Methods.

 

For completed assessments, a summary report is available. See Courses > Section > Assessment.

More extensive reports are also available. See the Reports tab.

The assessment data related to each outcome can be viewed for a single or multiple semesters.

1 These are the default scoring fields for section-level assessments. A maximum of 3 fields is available. The label for each field can be amended if required. This must be done by Xitracs Support.

2 Gradebook column linking is an optional feature and is currently available for Blackboard®, Brightspace®, Canvas® and Moodle®. Check with your Xitracs representative for additional LMS availability.

 

The functions available in the Portal can be controlled. See Control Panel > Portal >Settings. See also Credentials > Control Panel > Manage Semesters re locking a semester.
