Tech tip #57 - Some SDS updates and tips

Here are a few new/updated SDS features that you might want to know about:

The teacher cover page now separates today from the future, and includes information about who is covering you and whom you are covering.

SDS Calendar export includes teacher cover, lunch and quad duty, invigilations, and reports deadlines.

Home room advisors have access to the concerns/interventions information through My advisees.

For faculty using the SDS markbook to manage their marks (as opposed to Integrade, Freshgrade, Gradekeeper, MOODLE gradebook or Google sheets), assignments in the markbook have a "radio button" option, which makes it easy to input marks on a touch screen.

Another addition is that an assignment in the markbook can be designated as a "major assignment". This is then tracked on the Schedule Tests page, counting as an assessment for that week.

If you have SDS-specific questions or suggestions/comments please send them to sdshelp@smus.ca
