Where to Start

- Click on the widgets gray bar title and drag and drop it.
- Let go of your mouse to the desired location where you will see a yellow box to where it can be moved to.
Expand the widget by clicking the arrow icon (1) again.
Edit, Delete, or Add a Widget
- Click the pencil icon to edit the widget's title.
- Click the X to remove the widget from your screen,
- Select Add Widgets to add more widgets (including any you delete) to your screen.
Manage Widgets
Each widget has its own way to present data or information about your students.
- Use drop-down menus to change the students for which data is displayed on the screen as a whole or within individual widget.
- Hover over graphics for a description of data they contain.
- Some widgets have tools to export or download the data with MS Excel, Adobe PDF, Word Processing Tools, or a More... button for additional download options and setting.
