LiveSchool comes pre-loaded with an example rubric, but you can clear it out by clicking the red “X” on the Category names and deleting the three categories.
A few notes about deleting behaviors that have already been recorded for students:
Creating a new category allows you to create a new group of behaviors. In our Insights data reports, you can view data for a whole category of behaviors.
Keep in mind that everyone will be able to hide/show categories while recording points.
Creating a new behavior updates all teachers’ and admins’ rubrics, and it will be a new point you can view in your data.
You can name a behavior whatever you’d like. This will be the name of the point on the rubric, and in your Insights reports.
You can set points to be both positive and negative, or just one or the other.
Since you can clearly track when students are or are not on time, you might make “Being on Time” Positive/Negative. But you might not want to give negatives for “Outstanding Participation,” so you could make that Positive Only.
Keep in mind that you have the option of subtracting points for negative behavior, but this is turned off by default.
If there are certain behaviors your school is focused on reinforcing, make those behaviors worth more points so students earn extra for following those expectations.
You can send email notifications to any LiveSchool user at your school each time a certain behavior is recorded. Notifications are generally used for negative behaviors that need immediate attention, like office referrals or bullying.
Repeat steps 3-8 until your rubric contains all your school’s categories and behaviors! Congratulations, you’re ready to start recording points!
