Reviewing Community Engagement (MYP) Progress

Review Community Engagement Progress

For Community Engagement Coordinators via Year Groups > Community Engagement

You can access the Community Engagement roster from the Community Engagement tile of your MYP Group. The default view shows you the planned Community Engagement hours.

You can adjust the information viewed in the Community Engagement Roster from the dropdown menu on the upper right. The Outcomes option will allow you to view the number of outcomes that students are targeting across their activities, the count of evidence that they've submitted, and the number of meetings that have been held to date.

Click on a student name to view their individual Community Engagement worksheet, which will display a list of activities and the planned Community Engagement hours for each activity.

Outcomes are listed under the Community Engagement Progress section. The Outcomes tab shows that the student’s activities are balanced across all learning outcomes. The yellow bars provide a count of the number of activities that are targeting each particular outcome, whereas the green bars indicate the number of activities completed with evidence. Over the course of the programme, the green bars will gradually overlap the yellow ones as the students complete their activities.

Community Engagement Progress Indicators

Community Engagement Advisors can add progress indicators via a student’s Community Engagement worksheet. On the top navigation bar, they can mark the student's overall Community Engagement progress as ‘Excellent’, ‘On-track’ or ‘Concern’. To remove the progress indicator, select ‘To Be Determined’.

Once defined, the ‘flag’ or 'status' icon will appear in the Community Engagement Roster before the student's name. You can also filter students by these progress indicators by clicking the Filter tab on the top right.

For Community Engagement Advisors via Home > Reviews & Progress > Community Engagement

As a Community Engagement Advisor or Coordinator, you can easily review progress for your students from Reviews & Progress > Community Engagement. This tile will show the fifty most recent updates made by your students, including new activities, journal entries, photos, files, videos, and meetings. You can filter the updates for different MYP Grade Levels by using the Filter tab.
