As well as the options on the Goals/Targets screens themselves, there are also some additional configurable options for these within the Policies area of Databridge.
To access the Policies, you must have the relevant permission, then this will be available in the left hand menu at Administration -> Policies.
Options in Browser Policies
The following options are available in the Browser Policies tab:
Option | Description |
---|---|
Display Unachieved Goals only when adding Targets | By default, when adding Targets, the Medium Term Goal dropdown populates all Goals. By ticking this, it will only show those that have not yet been marked as achieved. |
Reset No. of Achieves when recording an Observation | This should be used with caution and recommended speaking to us before switching on. If switched on, when an Observation is recorded, the total number of Achievements tally is reset back to 0. |
Options in System Policies
The following options are available in the System Policies tab, under Targets and Goals Policies:
Option | Description |
---|---|
Core Objectives on Session | The total number of Objectives to display on a Session for each Learner from their Core Targets. |
Subject Objectives on Session | The total number of Objectives to display on a Session for each Learner from their Subject Targets. |
Default Objective Achieves | The default number used for total number of Achievements required when adding Objectives. |
Default Objectives sent to Session | The default number used for number of Objectives to list on a Session when adding Targets. |
Auto Achieve Objectives | When switched on (which is the default), when Achievements for an Objective total its number of Achievements required, the Objective is achieved automatically. If all the Objectives for the corresponding Target are achieved, it will also auto achieve that Target. |
Contextualised Objectives | If switched on, an option to contextualise an Objective within a Session becomes available. |
Goal Categories | If switched on, Long Term Goals use Categories for selection. Look at Setting up Goal Cache article for more information. |
Be able to set Achievement Date on Objectives | If switched on, when recording Achievement/Observation, the user can change the date it records for. |
Subject Targets Show All Targets | If ticked, when adding Subject Targets, the available list is changed to display all Subjects instead of just the ones they are timetabled for. |
Tutor Subject Targets | If ticked, as per the policy just above, it changes the available Subjects to choose from to include Subjects the related Tutor for the Learner teaches. |
Warn before Target is achieved | If ticked, when recording an achievement, if after saving both the Objective and related Target will auto achieve, it will prompt a warning beforehand in case you need to add additional Objectives. |
Allow unavailable Target Cache | If ticked, when selecting from the Target Cache when adding Targets, it will also display Cache areas marked as unavailable. |
Use Activate Date to determine if Target included on Session | If ticked (which is the default), it will add Objectives to Sessions only if the Targets Activate Date has passed. Otherwise it will simply list the first Objectives of all Targets. |
Use Completion Due Date to determine if Target is included on Session based on Academic Year | Similar to policy above, this determines if an Objective is listed on a Session or not. If ticked, Objectives where the corresponding Targets due date falls into the current academic year are the only ones listed. |
Automatically Prefix Objectives By Default | The default option for prefixing Objectives when adding. |
Show Target on Session Objectives | If ticked, the Objectives corresponding Target text/label will be displayed next to it on the Session screen. |
Require Scoring on Objective Achievement /Observation | If ticked, when recoding Achievement/Observation, the scoring option is a mandatory field. |
Scoring mandatory on adding Targets | If ticked, when adding Targets you cannot finish without adding Baseline/Predicted scores. |
Allow Unlinked Core Targets | If ticked, allows you to add Core Targets without having to link them to a Medium Term Goal. |
Mark Auto-Achieved Targets to prompt End Score | If ticked, when a Target is auto achieved it is marked to have a final score recorded for it. The list of these marked Targets are available in the dashboard widget Staff -> My Links. There you can record a final score and complete them. |
Default Academic Year filter to current year | If ticked, the Academic Year filter on the Targets screen is automatically set to the current academic year. |
Default displaying Achieved Targets | If ticked, when accessing the targets page for a learner, all achieved targets will appear on screen automatically. |
Default displaying Not Started Targets | If ticked, when accessing the targets page for a learner, all targets not yet started will appear on screen automatically. |
Default Target View | Determines which of the view types between Target, Goal and Area is the default view for all users. |
