LiveText Support @ SXU

  Tips and tricks to make your tasks quick and easy in LiveText!

  • Use the CTRL key on your keyboard to disable the pop-up blocker when opening a link. Often you do not get a screen you expect, or your browser displays a message like 'Error on page'. Try pressing down the CTRL key and clicking on the link again (you may have to click multiple times). Although you may have disabled one pop-up blocker on your machine, there may be multiple ones installed. Use the CTRL key to override all of them.
     
  • Faculty, assess all students on the same rubric first and then go to the next rubric. If you are doing multiple assessments, this can save you a lot of clicks! LiveText remembers the last assessment rubric you have used. If you use the same rubric on all the students first, you will save the effort of looking up the rubric each time.
     
  • Faculty, create a smart label "Assessments" to reduce your effort when grading with rubrics. The label will group all the assessment rubrics shared with you, and thus, you do not have to look up the inbox each time you want to find a rubric for grading. This will be the label displayed by default when you open the assessment window for grading.
  1. Click Edit labels... link under the heading "Materials" in the left column.
  2. Click the Create button and select the Smart Label option.
  3. Title it "Assessments" in exactly this spelling and letter case, and enter an optional description if you want.
  4. Match "all" conditions.
  5. Select the drop-down menus on the second line such that they display: Document Type is Assessment.
  6. Click the Add button to add a new row. Next to the new row, click the Remove button.
  7. Hit Save under Description box.
