UPDATE (March 2020): Expose SIS Information in the Grade Book and Health and Medical

Expose SIS Information Health and Medical

In some districts, nurses only have access to the Health and Medical application, limiting their ability to add information to a student record. To remedy this, OnCourse has created a way to add new questions or make existing fields visible in the Health and Medical application.

For instance, there may be health history questions that nurses need to have on hand. If  this is the case, OnCourse can create a new tab in the Health and Medical application and add questions. We are also able to expose existing student profile fields that can be editable or read-only. This tab and these fields will be visible within every student's profile.

If you would like to use this feature in your district, please contact OnCourse Support, and we'll get you set up right away.

Expose SIS Information in the Grade Book

In some districts teachers have limited access to information in student records, thus they aren't able to view or add information to student records. To remedy this, we've created a way to expose existing student record fields right in the OnCourse Grade Book. 

For example, districts may want teachers to track when students return their Technology Agreement or when parents give permission for their child to use the Internet. So teachers are able to add this information to the system, OnCourse has created the Show SIS Info button, located right in the OnCourse Grade Book. Clicking on the button allows teachers to see the fields that the district has chosen to expose. As each field is edited and saved, the information is automatically updated in each student's profile. These fields can be read only or editable. The button and fields will be visible within every student's profile.

If you would like to use this feature in your district, please contact OnCourse Support, and we'll get you set up right away.
