Making Standards “A bit easier to read!!”
Sorry I have not blogged for a while. Today I want to share something that I learned from another person! I plan to implement this tip into my standards class from now on. (Thanks Stacy!!!)
I just taught a standards class a few weeks ago and this individual from a brand new school asked if there was an easier way to separate out how the standards are viewed by teachers in PowerSchool teacher. The standards can be hard to read, especially if you have a lot of them, when the font is the same all the way down the page. I had her try putting html tags next to the subject headings and it worked. It makes it a ton easier for teachers to read! So now when you look at her list of standards, the subject area, such as the word reading, is bigger and bolder and then the standards below appear in regular font! If you already have standards in your site and want to do this follow these directions!
1. Change to the District Office
2. Click on District under Setup
3. Click on Standards and List Standards.
4. Click on the name of the standard. Before the name add in the html tag, such as < b > (less than sign, the letter b, greater than sign with no spaces) So for example the standard name Reading would look like this < b >Reading< /b > (the / closes the html tag!)
5. Click Submit
