General Assessment Process

The general assessment process is the bread and butter of the SkillGrader system. Here we take paper forms and digitize them for use through our app. The results of these assessments then flow through to the SkillGrader dashboard for analysis.

Let's take a look at the entire assessment process from start to finish:

Once logged in to the SkillGrader app, we will be presented with the following landing page.

To begin a new assessment, select the "Start New Assessment" button highlighted in red. Our next step will be to select our assessment. We can use the search bar (red magnifying glass icon) to find a specific assessment by name, or we can use the drop down menu to sort our assessments by type and then browse the available list.

Once we have chosen our assessment, there will be a brief confirmation window that shows us the assessment template that was chosen. Select the "Use This Template" button to proceed. On the following page, we will have the opportunity to app participants to our assessment by selecting the "Add Participants" button.

Here we have the ability to select up 20 participants for assessment (20 is the default limit, this number can be increased by request). We have several selection options available to us, there is a search by name option (red magnifying glass icon), a customizable drop down menu that can sort by tags (e.g squad, team, class, program), and bulk selection options. You can also browse the available list without using any filtering options to select your group. Once you have selected the appropriate users, click the "Done" button on the upper left hand side of the participant window to proceed. Next we will be brought back to a confirmation window to confirm our selections.

Once you have confirmed the assessment and selected users, click 'Continue' to open the assessment interface.

To begin, click "Start" in the top-right corner. This launches the assessment timer and unlocks the indicators for evaluation. You can't populate any indicators until the start button has been selected. Proceed through the assessment and fill in all of the available indicators.

Once the indicators have been populated, click the "Finish" button in the upper right hand corner (The 'Start' Button becomes the 'Finish' button after it is initially clicked)". This will take us to the results page.

The Results Page offers a preliminary view of performance metrics. To sync this data with the SkillGrader dashboard for long-term tracking and analysis, you must finalize the process by clicking "Submit Assessment". 

The overall objective is for all assessments to end up in the 'Submitted' category. In order to do so we need to make sure that we are selecting the 'Submit Assessment' button after completing each assessment.
