ClassJuggler News — October 2020

ClassJuggler's Alerts Just Got More Fun and Useful!

With our most recent ClassJuggler release, you now have clear animated alerts at the top center of each screen giving you feedback on your actions.

Whenever you perform a save, update, or delete — and many other actions — an alert pops up, with an animated timer bar, to confirm your action; then automatically disappears when the timer runs out. You can also hover your mouse over the alert to freeze it (to give you more time to read it) or click on the alert to automatically dismiss it. You also don't have to wait for the alert to disappear to move on to another action. This new alert format helps better notify users that their actions were successfully completed.

If you are not seeing this new alert feature, or the font size is too large, here's an easy fix; simply clear your web browser cache files and do a page reload on ClassJuggler's Home Page Screen. We even made a simple How-to-clear-your-cache video if you need help.

Skills Tracking in ClassJuggler

You may not have discovered the Skills feature in ClassJuggler yet. But when you do, you'll find this feature to track skills for students as easily as tracking their attendance. Skills can be tracked in groups by class, or simply added to a student’s record as they master each skill.

Here's how to take advantage of this useful ClassJuggler feature:

  1. Set up a list of skills under the Preferences > Skills Management screen.
  2. If you want to track skill assessments by class, add one or more of your skills to selected classes from the Class Maintenance screen. These skills are now quickly accessible from the "Assign and Manage Skills" screen from your selected classes.
  3. To individually assign skills to students a la carte, simply go to any student record, click on their "Manage and View Skills" screen and you'll be able to easily add any skill to that student's record.

If you are interested in learning more about skills, sign up for our October webinar on skills. And be sure to check out the online help guide for additional guidance on setting up and using skills.
