Easily create comparative team-level reports by arranging data and visualizations in a structured manner.
Streamline your report-building process and ensure that key insights are communicated effectively.
Use Case: Dashboard Facilitator Reports
Team data reveals valuable insights into learners’ decision-making, thought processes, and skill mastery. Facilitators use this information, paired with impactful debrief discussions, to guide participants toward self-discovery and meaningful learning outcomes.
With the page builder's easy-to-use features, you can design custom report pages that showcase team performance in comparison to others. By adding rows, columns, and elements like text and charts, you can enhance facilitation and provide learners with the visual feedback necessary to support their learning journey.
NOTE: These are not templates but created in Studio, by SimGate Authors, and will need to be customized and built out based on the specific course criteria and what data/information facilitators, learners, and/or administrators need.
DIY Steps
Create your new “Page Builder” template
In your “Page Builder” template where you plan to build your Dashboard Facilitator Report
When you start with a blank slate, there is always Title and Subtitle at the top of the screen.
In the middle section, you start with one Row as the default and can begin to create your page layout by adding more Rows & Columns
Each Row or Column becomes a field in which you can add your custom elements (like text, pictures, videos, inputs or charts)!
Build out your Top Row - This is the row that will repeat!
Build the row you plan to repeat, follow these steps:
To add a column within that row, click the 3-dot ellipses and choose Add Column (up to 4 columns)
To add a component to that column within that row, click the + Add item and choose your element.
NOTE: Not all components are available with this feature - see the tool tip in the edit panel:
In the columns, select "Add Item" and add the Rich Text, Gauges or Rating outputs you would like to display for each team or participant.
You can customize the gauge's name, variables, and other settings as needed.
💡Tip! Best Practices
To optimize efficiency, fully develop your initial row before employing the Row Repeat function (below). This guarantees that each duplicated row aligns precisely with your desired layout. Additionally, consider these best practices:
1. **Consistency in Design**: Maintain a consistent design theme across all rows to enhance visual coherence and user experience.
2. **Clear Organization**: Use clear labeling and organization techniques to easily identify the elements within your rows, particularly when dealing with complex page layouts.
3. **Variable Injector**: Insert the Team Name by using the variable injector so each row is easily identifiable.
Add Row Repeat to your Report
After making your desired updates, select the row settings. In the edit panel, you will find the option for "Row Repeat."
Toggle the button for Repeat Mode until it turns orange.
You will also see a toggle for Row dividers. Choose to turn this feature on or off based on your preference.
SimGate Auto Connects Repeated Rows to Participant Data
By engaging the row repeat feature, session data for all teams or participants is automatically pulled into this report. You only need to configure the first row of information or outputs and the system will repeat it for each team or participant that is associated with this session.
Finish and Review Changes
Review the changes in real-time or via Preview mode to ensure the report meets your expectations.
If needed, continue to edit the TOP ROW using the edit functions and this will carry through to your rows below.
Click the 'Close' button when you're done.
Make your report accessible through the Dashboard
In the Pages tab, locate the page you created for this report.
Click on the three-dot elipses and choose + Add to Dashboard.
Now you will see that the location of your page is listed as a Dashboard Report.
You can confirm this via the Settings page as well under Dashboard Settings:
Your report is now available to all facilitators and administrators who have access to the sessions associated with this course!
