Step	Task	webBook Details	✅
1	Overview.	Read the overview in webBook Progressive Assessment (Overview). Important! It is very important that you read and understand the concepts that are outlined in this overview before attempting to set up the Progressive Assessment functionality.	🔲
2	Staff Kiosk program Assessment > Parameters (Setup).	Enter the location of the school's Assessment Repository.	🔲
3	Student Admin > Student Records > Setup Information > Student Records Setup on the 'Subject Areas' tab.	Create the Subject Areas that teachers will use when creating Activities and other Learning Objects.	🔲
4	Student Admin > Student Records > Setup Information > Student Records Setup in the 'Subjects' tab.	Ensure that all subjects that will be used by teachers (when creating Activities) have the 'Reporting Flag' set to 'Yes'.	🔲
5	Student Admin > Student Records > Setup Information > Student Records Setup in the 'Subjects' tab.	Ensure that all subjects that will be used by teachers (when creating Activities) have the 'LMS Flag' set to 'Yes'. Set the 'LMS Flag' to 'No' for those subjects that you do not want displayed or used. For example, Homeroom or Tutor Group Comment.	🔲
6	Student Admin > Student Records > Setup Information > Student Records Setup on the 'Subjects' tab.	Map the subjects to the appropriate 'Subject Area'. This will prompt teachers with the correct Subject Area to file their Activities under (in the school's Assessment Repository) when creating Activities in webBook.	🔲
7	Student Admin > Student Records > Setup Information > Student Records Setup on the 'Subject Depts' tab.	Define' Heads of Department' (H.O.D) and 'Department Administrators'. These users will be able to assign Activities to multiple subject classes in webBook program Progressive Assessment and Staff Kiosk program Assessment.	🔲
8	Student Admin > Academic Reporting > Setup Information > Assessment Setup on the 'Result Periods' tab.	Set up the reporting period that teachers will use when creating and assigning Activities. The 'IA Lock' for this reporting period must be set to 'Teacher Class Access'. Very Very Important! If you are setting up an 'Interim' reporting period (e.g. Term 1 'Tick and Flick' reporting period) it is strongly recommended that the IA Lock is set to 'Teacher Class Access (Disable Progressive Assessment)'. This will stop teachers from accidentally assigning Activities to students in this period. You would normally have two reporting periods open during Term 1, for example: Term 1 2013 Interim Report with IA Lock = 'Teacher Class Access (Disable Progressive Assessment)', and Semester 1 2013 Report with IA Lock = ‘Teacher Class Access’. Using this example, teachers will only be able to assign Activities against the Semester reporting period.	🔲
9	Student Admin > Academic Reporting > Setup Information > Assessment Setup on the 'Objectives' tab.	Review and/or create the 'Objectives' that will be available to teachers to use when creating Activities.	🔲
10	Student Admin > Academic Reporting > Setup Information > Assessment Setup on the 'Result Formats' tab.	Set up the 'Progressive Assessment Options' for each subject that teachers will use when creating Activities.	🔲
11	Student Admin > Academic Reporting > Setup Information > Assessment Setup on the 'Result Formats' tab.	Once the result formats have been finalised, validations must be created. Click the 'Validate' button in the 'Result Formats' screen to create/update result validations.	🔲
12	File sizes.	Review the allowable maximum file size for: Activity files submitted by students using Student Café. Resources uploaded by teachers using the Staff Kiosk Assessment program. Feedback files attached by teachers using the Staff Kiosk Assessment program. Refer to 'How to Modify the File Size Limits for TASS.doc (Including Staff Kiosk Assessment' for details.	🔲
13		System Admin > Users > Reporting User Maintenance. Provide teachers with a webBook license to the reporting period.	🔲
