MP Best Practices

Wow!! Mastery Paths are so totally Tubular.

  • Think BIG. Start small.
  • Use Pages, Quizzes, Assignments, Discussions to build Paths. Assessments must be graded.
  • Provide options within the Path by using "Or."
  • For Assignments, Quizzes, and Discussions assign to Mastery Paths, instead of Everyone.
  • Can utilize no more than three levels or tiers
  • Test Mastery Path in Student View before going live with students.
  • Track students progress by returning to the initial assessment to see the breakdown in the right margin.
