Custom Classroom Observation Notes

Custom Classroom Observation Notes

Folio School Admin can create custom Observation Forms:

• These forms can be chosen (along with the original, default Classroom Observation form) by the observer when creating an Observation Note.
• On the Customizations page (Manage-->Customizations), in the Observation Focus section, type a name for your form in the Custom Forms drop-down and hit the enter/return key.

• You can then create any number of “prompts” or questions that the observer can respond to.

• The form content (prompts, template text) is saved with the Observation Note, so you can edit or delete forms if you like and it won’t affect already published notes.
• The user can select the custom form from a drop-down on the Classroom Observation Note page (NOTE: Observations 1, 2, and/or 3 need to be checked off and saved in the Focus Settings in order for any observation forms to be used as a Note).  

• Once the form is clicked on, the custom prompt(s) and response boxe(s) with the template text (if any) appears.
