🛠️ Student Data Grid Sorting

In student data grids, you have two levels of sorting. 

  1. Overall sorting of the grid: Configure all aspects of a student data grid in the Design Tab when adding a dataset.  In this example, the overall grid will be sorted by student name in ascending order.

  1. Sorting/row selection for an individual data point. This is done under the Design Tab: Column > DataSet > Row Selection Tab. NOTE: In Connect, the Row Selection Tab corresponds to the Apply Configuration Multiple times in V2.
    1. In the example below, the configuration selects records based on the most recent score.
    2. The selected ordering properties serve as a sorting mechanism for the multiple records per student. However, this does not impact the overall sorting of the grid as a whole.

In this example, both sorting configurations have been applied. The overall grid would be sorted by student name in ascending order. Then, when examining the assessment data individually, the rows will be sorted by test date in descending order. You are actually selecting rows of data for the assessment columns (number of rows, which in this example would be 20 for one student) and choosing the rows based on the field you have chosen for the First Ordering Property, which is the test date.
