Getting the most out of the interactions feature
Sorting using interactions From the manage page click on Sort and then choose Interactions . You will see all the types interactions a student has had added on to their profile.
Sorting using interactions Interactions are split into 6 categories which you can see in the coloured bars on the left. If a student completes some interactions in a category then the bar for that category turns orange. If a student completes all the interactions in category then the bar will become green, demonstrating they have met requirements. If a student has not completed any interactions for a category then it stays red. For example, Dawn Lloyd-Williams in the list above has not completed any careers interactions that relate to vocational routes. She has completed all the careers interactions that involve parents and some for all other categories.
Filtering using interactions From the manage page click on Filter and then choose Interactions . Clicking on a filter will show you only students for whom the statement applies. You could choose to see only students who have no world of work options recorded so you can address this group. Once you have filtered for them you could then email them or their form tutors, for example.
Problem 1 You copy in a list of names but a few stay in the box and don t get selected. If you paste a list of names into the matching box and some stay there then it means that those people didn t get matched and they didn t get selected. This happens because: 1. A student s name is spelt differently on Unifrog 2. The student doesn t have a Unifrog account in that yeargroup To rectify this, manually tick the student to add them to your list. Do not try to retype the name, it won t work.
Problem 2 You have made an error when creating an interaction for a group of students and need to correct it. If you need to correct an interaction for a group of students then click on the name of one student in the list. Go to the interactions section of their profile. Underneath a group interaction you will see two edit buttons. Edit will allow you to edit the interaction for ALL students it is associated with. You will always be able to check the list of students it applies to before making any changes.
Problem 3 You have included a student for an interaction incorrectly or you need to edit an interaction for one student. If you accidentally include a student who didn t attend a session the you can remove the interaction solely for that student. Open the interactions part of their profile. Each interaction has the option to edit. Click on Edit just for [name] At the bottom is the option to delete the interaction, just for that student.
