Chat GPT Update
Chat GPT is no longer blocked for RCSD Educatorson District Wifi. It is still blocked for students on district devices. A reminder for staff to never put any student information on platforms like this or any platform that we do not have a student data privacy agreement with. We look forward to continuing to learn how to use this tool as educators. We will share interesting/educational articles about GPT like the one below:

Otus Updates
Assessment View
On March 17th, Otus released an Assessments view in Gradebook, giving standards-based educators a quicker way to:
-View all assigned assessments in a class, no matter which grading scale was used
-Review and change the status of any assessment in a class
-Add or edit comments on any assessment in a class
What about student and family accounts?
-Students can view teacher comments added to all graded assessments directly in their gradebook.
-Family users can see the student's list of assignments, including total scores, statuses, timestamps, and comments. These comments do not show on the report card, they are tied to the assessment. Teacher view of whole class:
Teachers would need to mark missing for assignments for them and the student/family to see that an assignment is missing. A reminder that if you have multiple students that have a missing assignment, you can click on the boxes next to their name and then change the submission status and it will reflect that status for all students that you checked.
Missing Assessment Report
You can download a missing report for your entire class, or an individual student in your class. To download the missing report for your class (by period) go to the Assessment tab, then download Missing Assessments:
Upcoming Updates
By the end of the year Otus will be upcoming the family and student landing page. This page will include where families and students can see a student's overall summative grade in all classes, as well as Learning Behavior grades. Sample image:
Once this release happens, we would notify all staff and families.
