This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Activity Roster Summary page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Activity Roster Summary page

Administrative users have access to both Activity Rosters and Result Rosters for a specific course root. The Activity Roster is similar to a class roster – showing students’ academic information and enrollment status – but is available for each activity of a course root. Use the Result Roster to enter or view student results for each activity of a specific course root.

Accessing the Roster Summary

The roster summary component is available as soon as the class or EOC has activity IDs generated in the Activity Generator. Rosters for classes are accessed by the term while exam-only rosters are accessed by an academic period. Access into the component is controlled by Academic Organization security. You must also have access to the SSR_ACR_ROSTER and SSR_ACR_RESULT pages to gain access to the specific rosters.

The Activity Roster and Activity Result icons become visible to the user once students are associated with an activity. In addition, an activity must have been identified as Assessed on the detail page of the Activity Manager before the Activity Result icon can appear.

Activity Result

You can filter for students with results, students without results or both. The count for each is displayed by the status label. Students with results are those where a value exists (score, mark, grade, or outcome) from the associated result scale.

Result Type

You can filter using any result type that exists for the given content type as defined on the Result Type setup. The default when entering the page is the primary result type that was defined on the Academic Institution Table.

Result Sub-Type

Users can filter using a subtype. Subtypes include Capped, Insuff Mrk, Late Pen, Mand Fail, and Mid Term. Rows for insufficient mark, late penalty, and mandatory fail are inserted automatically based on Rules Engine calculation.

Result Scale

You can filter using any result scale that exists for the given content type as defined on the Result Type setup page.

When assigning grades, the grading basis associated with the student's enrollment must match an existing grading scheme/basis on the corresponding result scale.

Result Status

This filter option looks at the result status of each student. Those statuses include: Undetermined (00), Manual (05), Imported (07), Calculated (10), Awaiting Approval (20), Approved (30), Overriden (40), and Final (50). A blank row here returns all result statuses.

Default Submission Date To Due Date / This Date

This group of fields appear for assessment items. You can prepopulate the Submission Date field for the entire grid by selecting Due Date, where the due date for the activity is populated or This Date, which allows the user to define the Submission Date. When using Due Date, if an Extended Due Date exists for a particular student then the system populates the field with that date.

Accept Late Penalty Without Warning

This field appears for assessment items. Clear this check box to turn off the system warning that the late penalty rule will be applied to any activities submitted after the due date or extended due date, if one exists.

Select

Result Type

This column only appears when no result type is entered in the filter above. If a result type is entered in the filter section above, the system displays only the rows for that result type and does not display them in the grid.

Result Sub-Type

Subtypes include Capped, Insuff Mrk, Late Pen, Mand Fail, and Mid Term. Rows for insufficient mark, late penalty, and mandatory fail will be inserted automatically based on component processing that triggers the primary result calculation.

See Understanding the Delivered Rules in Activity Management

Result Scale

The result scale, associated with each activity, defines the scores, mark, grade, outcome combination that can be used as a result for the given activity. The Result Scale defaults from the Activity Manager as long as the result scale is represented on the Result Type table. It can be overridden as necessary.

Show Result Scale Show Result Scale icon

Select the icon to view the result scale mapping for the specific result scale.

Result Status

When you select Create Initial Result Row, the Result Status defaults to 00-Undetermined. When the status is changed to a different value the Include in Calc, Earned Mark, Grade, and Outcome fields will display as applicable. When the Create Initial Result Row option is cleared, the Result Status defaults to 05-Submitted. The delivered translate (SSR_IAM_RSLT_STAT) values for result status are:

00-Undetermined

05-Submitted

07-Imported

10-Calculated

20-Awaiting Approval

30-Approved

40-Overridden

50-Final

Submission Date

This column appears for assessment item activities. The default value is based on the setting for the Default Submission Date To above, either the due date or a date entered. Regardless of default setting, you can override the value as needed.

If the date entered here is later than the due date for the activity or the extended due date of a specific student, and a late penalty rule exists, then the entry of the mark triggers the Rules Engine and the system inserts a row with the subtype Late Pen in addition to the calculated late penalty mark.

Include in Calc

The system automatically calculates this value, but you can clear the check box to exclude the mark from a calculation.

Mark

Enter the student-earned mark for this activity. This mark should be in the range of the minimum and maximum mark defined on the Result Scale.

Maximum Mark

This column appears if the Display Maximum Mark is invoked and selected on the Installation Student Admin page. The maximum value defined on the Result Scale appears.

Grade

When you enter a mark, the system populates a grade based on the result scale mapping. You can override the populated grade as necessary. When you enter a grade instead of a mark (and the mark field exists) the system populates the mark field with the minimum mark of the grade range. Students must possess the grading basis for the grade being assigned on the student enrollment record.

Outcome

Enter the student outcome for this activity. The system populates this value automatically based on the Earned Mark (result scale mapping), but you can override it with any other outcome that is applicable to the mark range for the selected scale. Delivered values available on the result scale include: Audit (A), Fail (F), Incomplete (I), Pass (P), and Withdrawn (W). The values entered here (SSR_IAM_OUTCOME) should match the values on SSR_RESULTS_STATUS.

Result History Result History icon

Select this icon to transfer to the Activity Result History page where you can review a student’s entire result history for the activity. Common Attributes defined for a result are accessible through the Result History icon. The initial result row must be saved for this icon to appear.

Select the option to update the student's enrollment record if a result already exists. The options include: Apply Grade Change (replaces the existing grade), and Keep Current Grade (keeps existing grade and disregards the posting update).

Population Selection

Population selection is a method for selecting the IDs to process for a specific transaction. The Population Selection group box is a standard group box that appears on run control pages when the Population Selection process is available or required for the transaction. Selection tools are available based on the selection tools that your institution selected in the setup of the Population Selection process for the application process and on your user security. Fields in the group box appear based on the selection tool that you select. The fields behave the same way from within the group box on all run control pages and application processes. If your institution uses a specific delivered selection tool (such as PS Query) to identify IDs for a specific transaction, you must use it.

There are two delivered Population Selection queries, SSR_IAM_RSLT_PST_BY_TERM, and SSR_IAM_RSLT_PST_EXAM_ONLY which prompt users to enter the institution, and term or academic period. You can create additional queries as needed.
