Featured Features: 

1. Impersonation Icon and 'Stop Impersonating'

When you're impersonating a user, you will see a "secret agent" icon that will imply that you're impersonating a user. To stop impersonating you simply click the "secret agent".

2. Navigating to containers just got a whole lot easier!

Instead of scrolling through many containers, you can now open up the Table of Contents on a Dashboard, and click on a blue container name, to automatically navigate you there!

3. Spotlight students from ANY clickable region!

When you see a chart anywhere inside the Homeroom dashboards, you can click on the region to reveal the students that represent the region.

In this list, you can now hover over the student images, to reveal a profile icon. Clicking this icon quickly navigates to that student's spotlight, in a new browser tab. This allows you to more quickly and efficiently drill into students to view more detailed information. (Student photos in the screenshot are obfuscated for FERPA compliance).

4. Dashboard Builder changelog! 

This log will track basic changes to the dashboard builder. This is great for districts working in collaboration with SDS staff on dashboards, or if there are multiple "builders" inside a district. This changelog will indicate to you what users and what changes have occurred, trying to limit the "stepping on toes". As we get more data to track, we'll include it in the table, so that you're very informed as to what changes are occurring on dashboards.

5. Assessment Set creation and Editing - now one screen accomplished with better efficiency.

Now, users have a single screen and don't need to decide which of the two options to select. In this new single Assessment Sets Screen, you still have the ability to both EDIT and ADD assessment sets.

This was specifically designed with the purpose of providing context, to each application in a bundle, and how each bundle collectively make up one of the many SchoolData.net applications suites.
