Can I mark a roll in PxP for Multi-Periods?
This functionality allows you to treat multi-period classes as a single roll. These rolls can be marked once, and any student absences will cover the multi-period.
Note: the current requirements for a roll to be treated as valid multi-period marking are as follows:
The same class must occur consecutively across multiple periods
The class must be taught by the same teacher across all periods in the set
The class must be taught in the same room across all periods in the set
Note: this needs to be turned on in PxP > Setup > Settings > Multi-period Roll Marking. (Scroll down, this is the last option).
If set to Yes, accessing a roll that meets the criteria will take you to the multi-period view.
If set to No, all rolls will use the single-period view. By default it will be set to No.
Note: it will still be possible to switch back to a single period view of each class if this is enabled.
Marking the Roll
Click on the first period of the multi-period.
The Start time will indicate the beginning of the first period.
The End time will indicate the end of the last period.
2. Mark the roll as previously outlined in steps above. If a student is marked absent, this will display they are absent for all periods.
If a student is late to class, the time shows for both periods, absences will be inserted into the appropriate period.
If a student needs to leave class early, the time shows for both periods, absences will be inserted into the appropriate period.
