   Teachers can optionally log the students mood/disposition prior to the lesson. RoboKind is not presently doing an analysis of changes to a students mood before & after lessons, but this data will be available for future reporting for teachers/therapists who choose to record this.

2. The optional ability to add notes prior to the lesson. (We expect most teachers will be more likely to add a note after a lesson, but we support notes at both points).

3. An updated toggle for selecting the lesson mode before starting the lesson.

   

   1. Full Lesson - includes the full curriculum for the lesson, including teaching and then assessing the student.

   2. Teach - The concepts are presented, but the student is not assessed on their understanding of the content.

   3. Practice - For use when a student is simply reviewing a concept, it is possible to skip straight to Practice mode in which a student is tested/assessed on the content without the up front learning portion of the lesson.

   4. Note: A few lessons, such as introductory lesson 1, do not contain a mastery assessment, and such only the Full Lesson option will be available.

4. New! Before a lesson starts, it is now possible to access links to related extension activities.

   

5. New! If applicable for the selected student and lesson, we now display IEP Goals that are relevant to the lesson. Teachers are encouraged to review and keep those goals in mind during the lesson, and then comment on progress at the end of the lesson.

6. New! A list of the students previous attempts of that same lesson with date, time, score, and progress outcome (in stars). This historical information is intended to help teachers to coach and assist students in any areas where they have struggled, or to select a different lesson if appropriate.

   

7. If a teacher/therapist decides to choose a different lesson, they may use the left arrow button in the top left to go back to the lesson selection screen..

• Lesson Controls:

  • End Lesson - for ending a lesson early.

  • Previous Lesson Section - for moving to a previous lesson section. Button may be pressed more than once.

  • Restart Lesson - restarts lesson from the beginning.

  • Speech Speed: The default speed is about 80% of normal speech speed for students who might benefit from a slower pace. For other students, we recommend trying out the Typical or Fast speed settings, which will be saved and retained for that student in subsequent lessons.

• New! We have a new, faster way of assessing a students progress and and engagement at the end of a lesson.

• 

  Step 1: Select NEEDS WORK, IMPROVING, SKILLED, or N/A. Only use N/A in cases of practice lessons or where a lesson ended before meaningful progress can be captured. Lessons marked as N/A may not count towards certain progress metrics in future reporting.

• Step 2: The new Engagement field tracks the students overall level of engagement during a lesson as LOW, MED, or HIGH. This is intended as an informal point in time snapshot and not as an overall assessment.

  

• Step 3: Select the students disposition at the end of the lesson. If used consistently, trends in changes to student disposition will be available in future reporting options.

  

• Step 4: A facilitator can optionally log notes against a students file. We recommend including notes here that would remind the facilitator of any progress or challenges the student faced during the lesson.

  • New! Note that on newer iPad’s, it may be possible to use the microphone button in the lower right hand corner of the screen

    

  • The post lesson screen will show totals for the use of distracted and accomodated cueing buttons during the lesson.

    

  • Similar to the pre-lesson screen, the post lesson screen will display:

    • Any IEP goals practiced in the lesson

      

    • Related extension activities (if applicable)

    • Detailed logs of past lessons, scores, progress assessments, and notes. Note that for stats on the recently completed lesson attempt, see the information at the top of the page.

    • 

      Upon clicking the Submit button, the students progress and notes are saved, and the facilitator is returned to the lesson selection screen to select the next lesson or activity.

  • If a teacher wishes to switch to a different student, there are 2 options:

    • Use the back button until reaching the student selection page, then change which student is selected by clearing the current student and selecting a new student.

    • Use the menu icon in the lower right hand corner of the screen, which allows the teacher to start over using the Session Setup screen and then to select a new student.
