5. Groups

5.1 Creating Groups

• For students to begin playing the Simulation, the instructor must create a new Group. Groups allow you to keep student performance results separated by class, school, region, or any other grouping that you prefer. Students can join multiple Groups.

• Use the Instructor Dashboard to create a Group. 

  • Follow the on-screen directions to choose your Group settings — including the specific Project Scenario you want students to play.
    
    
  • Copy and share the 7-digit Group number with your students. Students will join your Group and be able to play the Simulation. Instructors can also use the Group Number to play as a student.
    
    
  • When students join your Group number, they will automatically appear on your Instructor Dashboard. Rostering is automated so you do not have to input student names or other information.
    
    
  • To allow students to play more than one Project Scenario, you mus

  • Restaurant Franchise — In this simulation you will direct the development of a new restaurant within a franchise of health food restaurants. You will take the project from the initial renovation of an existing building through to the grand opening of the new restaurant. 
    
    
  • Smartwatch Spinout — In this simulation you will direct the launch of a spinout company that will manufacture a new smartwatch device. You will take the project from the registration of the new company to production and distribution of the s

7. Saving and Resuming Progress

• Student progress is automatically saved online.

• Students can quit and resume their progress at any time.

• Students will automatically continue from where they stopped playing.

• Groups settings provide instructors the option of allowing students to reset their Simulations. Resetting restarts a Simulation from the beginning — all progress for that Simulation in the specific Group is deleted (but has no effect on other Groups the student may be playing). Instructors can use the Dashboard to reset a student at any time, even if the student is not give the option to reset their own Simulation.

8. Assessment

8.1 Monitoring Student Progress & Performance

• Student progress and performance are tracked automatically and detailed reports are instantly available on the Instructor Dashboard under Groups & Reports.

• Instructors can view and compare summary results for all students in a Group. Clicking a student name displays a detailed Performance Report for the student.

• Assessment is fully automated as described below.

8.2 Performance SCORE — Metrics & Weights

Assessment is fully automated and summarized in a Performance Score (0 to 100%) that is weighted across multiple metrics:

• Project Completion is the most significant metric because it rewards students for putting in the time and effort to complete the activity. Students who do not fully complete the Project Scenario
