Tech Tip
Many ODYSSEYWARE students are finding academic success with Prescriptive Credit Recovery. Working at their own pace, they are able to test out of material they understand while revisiting subjects in which they aren’t proficient.
Our tech support team offers the following tip to streamline the process:
When a student using ODYSSEYWARE is assigned a course in the CRX mode, the student should always access his course by clicking on the link for the course at the bottom of the homepage, instead of using the “my courses” button.
This will allow the student to take an “alternate” or “pretest.” Based on the results of the test, the student will either test out of the unit or be placed directly into that current unit. If the student tries to access the course by using the “my courses” button, the student will see all units skipped. Conversely, the teacher side shows assigned. While this can be confusing, it is the design of ODYSSEYWARE CRX mode.
If a student does not test out of the unit, be sure the student clicks on “Finish Assignment” when he completes the final review. Clicking on “Continue to next assignment” will take the student to the first lesson in the next unit and will not generate the next “alternate” or “pretest.”
