Individual Pie Chart Report

Figure 6.12: Individual Pie Chart Report
The pie chart report for a particular student shows the student's current progress toward mastery of the curriculum (Fig. 6.11). There is also a menu giving access to earlier points in the student's progress; the menu choices are dates with the notations "Assessment" (meaning the pie chart represents the student's knowledge immediately after the assessment on the given date) or "Learning" (meaning the pie chart represents the student's knowledge just before the next assessment).
Objective Pie View. When instructors are viewing a student's latest learning result, they can toggle their view from the full ALEKS Pie view to the Objective Pie view by clicking on the "Switch to Objective Pie" link. For more details about this feature, see Sec. 6.2.8.
Beneath the pie chart is a list of concepts the student has recently mastered ("What student's name can do") and another list of concepts the student is currently (as of the given assessment) ready to begin learning ("What student's name is ready to learn next"). To see a complete list of topics mastered by the student, click on the link "and many other more elementary concepts."
Show me what the student sees. This link will be available for a student who has completed the current Objective in a class where Objectives with end dates are in use. By default, the report uses the current textbook chapter or Objective for the class as a frame of reference, that is, the last chapter or Objective whose due date has not passed. To switch to the frame of reference for a student working ahead of the current Objective, click on "Show me what the student sees." In classes where Objective completion by Mastery Level (without end dates) is in use, the instructor and the student will always have the same frame of reference. For more details about Objectives with End dates and Mastery Levels, see Sec. 6.3.4.
At the bottom of the page there will be a "History" section that contains the student's progress for the current class (Fig. 6.12). The assessment currently being viewed is indicated with an orange dot. To view the student's progress in other classes, the instructor can click on the "View" link under "Previous Results" (if applicable). Clicking on the date for any listed assessment will show the student's pie chart and progress as it was at that point in time. (Sec. 6.2.4).
