The Assessa+ application is designed to allow users of our data collection systems (universities, schools, organizations, and businesses) to collect observational data on subjects using forms that are designed and made available on our web application, Assessa.
The system can be used to collect peer reviews, classroom observations of teachers or students, environment or facilities walk-throughs/audits, and reviews of employees or services (such as in a restaurant or shop setting).
This plus (+) version includes timer and tally question types as well as new form-sharing and reporting options.
-- Quick Start --
With version of this app, users of iPhone or iPad devices can start collecting data immediately. After installing the app from the iTunes store, start it up and you will see a Settings page. Enter your initials and email address in the 'Observer' fields. Additionally, set 'Email Report' to 'ON' (the email is used only to send your observation reports to your email address for printing and storage, and allow you to access your data). Once you enter these fields, click NEW to pick a pre-made observation form. The chosen form will be loaded onto your device.
When you see the 'Subjects' page, you can start observing! To add a subject/person to observe, click the '+' button on at the ‘Subjects’ page; enter the first and last name and click ‘Add’. Then, click on the subject to observe, select and answer questions, and return to the 'Subject' page to 'Send' your observations to the system, which will prepare and email you a report.
- Customizing the System --
If you would like to create your own custom forms, view and print consolidated observation reports, and enter your subjects/persons to observe, you can use the web-based portion of this system by visiting the FacultyTools system. A single-user account may use the basic version of our system for free. You can set up your own form/questions, and enter a list of subjects to observe.
