81 What is a Simulation? Navigate 2 Simulations provide rich study aids for your course. A Simulation is a lesson on a particular topic that includes live-action videos, animations, screens with narration and illustrations, and pop-up definitions and information. Lessons also include review questions that students must answer to continue. When a student launches and completes a Simulation, it is recorded in the Gradebook with a score of 100. Any Simulations not launched or viewed to the end are recorded as 0 in the Gradebook. Note: Your browser must allow pop-ups for a Simulation to work. How do I see a summary of class progress on these Simulation exercises? Navigate 2 Simulations store and analyze summary data about class progress. They also store detailed data about each screen, slide, or question in a Simulation. You can access these data via the Course page. 1. From the Course page, click the Learning Tools PATHWAY tab. 2. Click the Simulation down arrow. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 81

82 3. Click the LAUNCH button for the Simulation for which you want to see data. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 82

83 Navigate 2 displays an Overview of Analytics for the Simulation, including the average grade and lesson completion percentages. You can also see the number of students online in the last hour as well as the median time spent on the Simulation. One of the core goals of the Simulation is to detect, or trap, the student s behavior or misconceptions and then respond to them. This is done with trap states. A trap state consists of conditions and actions. In the simplest terms, when the conditions of a trap state are fulfilled, its actions are executed. The Adaptive Feedback in Use detects the overall percentage of the trap states that were triggered by the student cohort. In this example, students triggered 46% of trap states, which means there may be some misconceptions that you will need to address. If students triggered 0% of the trap states, that means they did not trigger any trap states that were set up in the lesson; in other words, they fully understood the concepts covered by the Simulation and answered all of the questions correctly. Conversely, if students triggered 100% of the trap states, they completely misunderstood the concepts and answered all of the questions incorrectly. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 83

84 To view the detailed class summary, follow these steps. 1. Under the Simulation name (for example, Allergic Reaction), click Overview. Question Explorer lets you explore student data by screen (in other words, the individual slides in a Simulation). Student Results breaks down the data by student. 2. Click Question Explorer. Navigate displays a list of all the screens or slides in the Simulation. The four columns provide the following information: Average Grade: The average grade per student per slide. If a slide does not have a grading component, this space does not contain a bar (is blank). In the screenshot above, none of the questions shows an Average grade because the Simulation is graded only upon completion, at which point the student receives a grade of 100%. Median time spent (mins): The median time, in minutes, spent by students on each lesson component. Average no. of attempts: The average number of times that students attempted a question or viewed a component. No. of students that attempted: The number of students who attempted a question or viewed a component. Note: The scale of each graph will vary, depending on the number of students taking the course. By default, the data are Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 84

85 sorted by screen sequence. You can sort on any of the columns by clicking its heading. 3. For a summary of information about any individual component, point to the component name. The example below shows the data for the Upper Airway Pathologies lesson. 4. To see more detail about how students fared on a particular question, click the component name to display a solution trace graph. In the example above, one student answered correctly on the first attempt at the Lung Assessment, while six students gave incorrect answers on their first attempts. On the second attempt, four students gave the correct answer, and the remaining students once again gave incorrect answers. On the third attempt, another student gave a correct answer, while the others gave incorrect answers. On the fourth attempt, the students who had answered incorrectly on all other attempts finally gave the correct answer. Note: Some Simulations are set up to give students a limited number of attempts to answer a question. Others provide Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 85

86 feedback for incorrect answers and, if a student consistently answers incorrectly, provide the correct answer with an explanation. How do I drill down into individual student result reports? Navigate 2 Simulations also give you the opportunity to view reports on individual student results. 1. To see individual student results, click the down arrow under the Simulation title (it will read either Overview or Question Explorer). 2. Click Student Results and, if necessary, scroll down to view the table, which lists all of the students in the course, along with the number of Lesson Attempts, the Time Spent on a lesson, the Grade (if the lesson is graded), and whether the student Finished.

Navigate to the question by scrolling the left side of the screen and clicking the question name. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 87

88 6. If a question includes a Simulation that the student must complete, click PREVIEW to view the animation and then click the Back to Author button or press ESCAPE to return to the open lesson. OR If the question does not include a Simulation, as in the screen below, you can simply view it in the open lesson. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 88

89 Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 89

90 The next diagram shows the question in the lesson as well as the student s response to the question in the table. To view only the data for a particular student, use the Search text box to enter an address, given name, or surname. Doing so will filter the table so that it displays only that student s responses. You can also filter this table on any of the fields using the Search text box. For example, to see data on a particular question, type the question name in the Search text box and press ENTER. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 90

91 To work further with the data, export the information to a CSV file and open it in a program such as Microsoft Excel. How do I navigate back and forth between a Simulation and Navigate 2 itself? When you select a Simulation from the Learning Tools PATHWAY, it opens in a separate browser tab. To return to a screen you viewed previously, click the browser Back button. To return to Navigate 2, click the Jones & Bartlett Learning tab. To exit the Simulation, click the Close button for the browser tab. How do these results relate to the Gradebook? Results from any Simulations are automatically entered in the Gradebook. If your course is set up to grade students based on participation, the score is 100 for any student who finishes a Simulation. If a student does not finish a Simulation, the grade is 0. Note: In a course set up to grade students based on participation, it is not necessary for a student to answer all questions to get a grade of 100. The student must simply go through the entire Simulation. Navigate 2: Instructor Help and Walkthrough 91
