The Class PBIS tool in Student Admin enables teachers to reward students with QuaverDollars. This acts as a virtual currency for purchasing items for Avatars or QuaverRooms found on student dashboards. Teachers have an unlimited amount of QuaverDollars they can award to students.
Before using Class PBIS, you must set up classes and student accounts.
Class PBIS Layout #
The Class PBIS screen contains three tabs, Class, Students, and Setup:
Class
You can view all transactions for a selected class in the Class tab. You can see the transaction’s recipient(s), reason, date, and amount. If you have multiple recipients, click on the transaction to see a list of the students.
Students
The Students tab shows all of the students in your class along with information about their QuaverNotes. Use the purple arrow at the top of the window to select from your list of classes. As you switch classes, the Class PBIS window will update to display the students in each class.
From left to right, it includes:
- Beginning Balance – the student’s balance before the latest transaction.
- Last Transaction Date – this also includes transaction reason notes, if applicable.
- Amount – Last transaction amount.
- Transaction Type – Last transaction type.
- New Balance – Current Balance in the student’s account.
- Awarded to Date – the total number of QuaverNotes awarded to date.
Setup
In the Setup tab, you can edit, add, and remove Class PBIS categories for rewarding or redeeming. For example, if you want to reward a student for good classroom behavior, such as being an “Active Listener,” you can add a default reason to select when awarding QuaverDollars to a student.
There are two tabs to choose from: Awards and Purchases.
Under Awards/Purchase Categories on the left, you can edit (purple edit icon) or remove (red trash icon) category titles. Below the Award Categories, you can add custom categories (+Add Category).
On the right, you can add, edit, and remove item names within each category.
Rewarding/Redeeming QuaverDollars #
There are two ways to navigate to the Reward/Redeem QuaverDollars window:
- Click Menu, then Reward/Redeem QuaverDollars.
- Click the Reward/Redeem QuaverDollars button at the bottom of the screen.
The Reward/Redeem QuaverDollars window contains tabs for Reward and Redeem:
Reward
First, select one or more classes using the top dropdown menu to reward students. If assigning to one class, choose one or more students using the bottom dropdown menu. Next, pick a predetermined QuaverDollars amount or enter an amount up to 100. Finally, optionally provide a reason for the students receiving the reward.
After making your selection, click Save to reward QuaverDollars.
Students’ accounts will not be notified if you reward more than one class at a time.
Redeem
To redeem QuaverDollars from students, select a class using the top dropdown menu. Then, choose one or more students from the selected class. Next, select a predetermined QuaverDollars amount or enter an amount up to 100. Finally, optionally provide a reason for redeeming the students’ QuaverDollars.
After making your selection, click Save to redeem QuaverDollars.
History #
You can select any student in the Students tab to view their transaction history. Click any student’s name and the View History button near the bottom. The Student History Panel displays all QuaverDollars transactions in a student’s account. You can view purchases made by the student for avatars or the quaver room, QuaverDollars codes the student has entered from their own account, or any transactions where the teacher has rewarded or redeemed QuaverDollars.
Student Notification #
When awarded QuaverDollars, students receive a notification in their account. By selecting this notification, they can view the number of QuaverDollars received and read a message from the teacher.
