There are some further settings for each block depending on what it is, and these are highlighted below: \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Capability blocks \u2013 these are blocks that enable further evidence to be added. When tracking is added to these blocks, further terms can be set for the block to be marked as complete (see section \u2018evidence blocks\u2019 below).\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multi-line text boxes \u2013 where students have been given a text box to complete, tracking can be set to be marked as complete as soon as any text is entered or once the minimum word count has been reached. *Please note: if the minimum wordcount is set to 0, this will immediately show as complete.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also some blocks where tracking (at present) is potentially limited:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tables \u2013 if using repeating rows, the table will be marked as complete once the first row has been completed. If there are a set number of rows the table will show as complete once ALL cells have been completed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check list \u2013 this block will be marked complete if 1 item is ticked. At present there is no option to indicate how many checkboxes should be ticked to verify completion.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PebblePad video below demonstrates progress tracking in action and also gives some insight into how this data can be viewed on your ATLAS dashboard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PebblePad | Configurable Progress Tracking &amp; Insights Dashboards\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ne2wn4H0ql4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you would like a sneaky peek at progress tracking in action, please take a look at the workbook example found here: <a href=\"https:\/\/v3.pebblepad.co.uk\/spa\/#\/public\/Hct5793rxwm6d6cHpc6G7jw7ZM?historyId=V8rEWT8IGj&amp;pageId=e948f3ac-e841-4d6a-9341-7fde1b66a016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Progress tracking example <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"evidence\">Evidence blocks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the option to &#8216;attach evidence&#8217; is added to a block, progress tracking can be enabled along with a selection of criteria that needs to be met before the evidence is marked as complete. Criteria include:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The number of pieces of evidence needed\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The evidence type used\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Required tags\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creation date\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Only completed evidence (i.e. a fully complete template)\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A set signature requirement\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A verification requirement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, if tags are used as a criterion for evidence collection, these can now be automatically added as evidence if the \u2018Automatic Criteria\u2019 option is selected.
