Delete attempts from reports.
You can delete attempts from a report by clicking the report you want to change and selecting View from the Actions Menu. If you scroll all the way to the right of the window, you will see an icon in the Delete column, which is how you can delete the grade or attempt for the assignment. Once an instructor deletes a grade, it is permanent and cannot be recovered.
Deleting an exam attempt will promote all subsequent attempts up by 1. So, if you were to delete exam attempt 1, attempt 2 would then become attempt 1, etc. This is done in order to provide the student access to the proper number of attempts.
Lessons and SIMbooks display results in the same screen.
Displays when the student completed all of the available points within the Lesson assignment.
Displays when the student last completed work within the assignment. This may be after the Complete date if the student continues to practice within the Lesson.
Displays how many of the tasks in the Lesson have been completed and the student's percent score for the assignment.
Displays each task in the Lesson assignment based on its title.
Displays the number of completed items within each task in the Lesson. May be worth as many points as the total number of task points available.
Displays how many points are available within each task in the Lesson. This value depends upon the content of the task and the Lesson settings.
Displays when each task within the Lesson was attempted by the student.
Displays each component of a task. Lesson tasks may have more than one of each type.
Displays time spent on each task component. Teach Me components are accessed by viewing the Lesson page. Show Me, Guide Me, and Let Me Try components are accessed by opening each individual part separately.
Displays the number of times each component has been completed. Show Me, Guide Me, and Let Me Try components can be completed many times but are only scored for credit once.
Instructors may elect to change a task to Complete from incomplete. This will change the Completed status and the Lesson Score and % Completed.
Instructors may load a preview of the task so that they can review it without navigating to a separate page.
When Deleting SIMpath Attempts, the Delete option only deletes the most recent step used by the student. Students who have completed the Pre-test, Lesson, and Post-test will have 3 different items to delete for a single SIMpath row. Pressing the delete icon once will delete the Post-test attempt, then the Lesson attempt, and then the Pre-test attempt. Each step must be deleted in order.

Prints the attempt and grade information from the top of the screen (1-12) and the written feedback from the left side of the screen (13-17).
Downloads the student's submission for that attempt.
This report breaks down each skill in the project and determines the user's score. If the student is scored on changing fonts multiple times within a project this report will show you how well the student displayed that capability in this assignment. Each objective corresponds to a SIMbook page. The Objective determines that page by the book series, version, application, chapter, and page: SA19-WD-02.01 is from the Skills Approach book series, Office 2019/365 version, Word application, Chapter 2, Skill 1. The Description is the name of that SIMbook page. Objective Mastery shows the score for all of the instances of that skill in the project.
Downloads a blank start file as the student would download when starting that project.
Brings up the Project assignment instructions in a separate window. Note: this option displays the instructions for the operating system of the current user, not necessarily the student. If the student completed their assignment using a Mac and the instructor is using Windows, the instructor will see the Windows instructions. Switch the slider to the appropriate option as required.

Correct Answers are displayed with green text.
Partially Correct answers are displayed in blue text and will contain both incorrect and correct sub-steps. Review each sub-step to determine where the student is losing points. This may be on two unrelated parts of the same larger step, like bolding two separate paragraphs where only one is bolded or may include two related parts, like an excel formula that is created improperly but displays the same result as the correct answer.
Each textbook has its own set of objectives that can be displayed. These objectives can also be hidden by selecting None from the drop-down list. Objectives show exactly where the information to correctly complete this step is located in the SIMbook.
Use the View Options to expand all answers on the left, collapse all answers on the left, or hide the visual feedback map on the right.
This is an image of the correct answer. This is not the student's submission. The visual feedback displays correct and incorrect bubbles at the location in the document where each step is being done.

Displays the total percentage score and points earned depending on exam settings. Instructors may choose to weight certain questions separately and this may make the Exam Points different than the Exam Questions data.
Displays the text of the question that the student was asked to answer as the student saw it.
This is automatically generated text based on where the student interacted with the simulated question. This requires a student to click, drag, or type in the simulation.

Additional attempts can be viewed by clicking the magnifying glass icon in the upper right corner of the submitted answer box.
Questions can either be Correct, Incorrect or Not Attempted.
If the student has answered the question incorrectly or has not attempted the question, the student will receive 0 points. If the student has answered the question correctly the student will receive the appropriate points based on the assignment settings.
The Exam settings may allow for multiple attempts at the same question. This column displays the number of attempts used. If the Attempts used is greater than 1, the additional Submitted Answers for that question will be available.
Displays the date and time of the most recently completed question attempt.
Instructors have discretion about whether or not they believe the student answered the question correctly or whether or not the question was functioning in a way to appropriately elicit a demonstration that the student knows how to complete the skill. Clicking the change grade icon changes the attempt status from Incorrect to Correct (and vice versa) and gives the student updated points for that question and for the Exam.
Click this icon to load the question as the student sees it. This can be used to review the question to ensure that it is working properly or test alternate methods for completion.

Bookmark, create, or view reports.
In SIMnet, reports are saved report queries that will automatically update each time you view the report. There is no need to recreate the report every time you want an update. For example, if you create a class overview report, the report will automatically update with the latest lesson and exam results for your entire class every time you view the report.
On the Main Report Page, the names of saved reports appear in alphabetical order. You can change the Name filter to display reports that contain a specific sequence of words, those that starts or end with a specific letter, those that do not contain a specific word, and so on.
Next to each saved report, the report type is displayed. You can choose to filter the saved reports to have all reports of the same type appear grouped together. You can also change the filter so that only one type of report is displayed at a time. You can do so by changing the type filter to display reports that contain a specific sequence of words, those that starts or end with a specific letter, those that do not contain a specific word, and so on.
From the Reports Actions Menu, you can view a selected report in the Course Manager in SimNet. This will display all of the information included in that report regarding the students, lessons, grades, exams, projects, and other associated assignments for the report. You can choose to print the report as a PDF or onto paper for your records. Some reports will have the option to export as an Excel spreadsheet, which you can save to your hard drive for your records. Lastly, if you have a duplicate report or a report that is no longer relevant, you can delete the report from the actions menu. This will initiate a pop-up to confirm that you really want to delete the report.
