Account Settings | Point System | Behavior Suite

Design

• Point System will show a list of Behavior Categories and Behaviors within those categories, as well as the point value associated with the positive behaviors

• Users may click on Edit to adjust the default settings.

• Users can click to view the positive or negative categories and behaviors

• Users may click the up/down arrows to re-order the categories/behaviors

• Users may edit the category or behavior name by clicking in the category/behavior name box and editing the text.

• Users may change the point value of a behavior

• Users may click the X to remove a behavior category or behavior from the list

• Users may add a new category by clicking on add new category

  • From here, the user will enter a category name and select whether this is a positive or negative category.

  • 3 lines will appear to enter default behaviors

  • If this is a positive category, users will enter a point value for each behavior

  • If this is a negative category, users will not enter a point value

• Users may add a new behavior by clicking on add new behavior

  • A line will appear to add a behavior name

  • If the behavior belongs to a positive category, users will have the ability to adjust the point value

  • If the behavior belongs to a negative category, users will not have the ability to adjust the point value.

• There must be One category for positive and one category for negative behaviors and One behavior for save to be active

• Users may click add new category to add another category

Business Rules

• Users with permission to Edit Behavior Settings and who are marked “is admin role” will see this section.

• Only the highest level admin users will have permission to edit/reorder the behavior categories/behavior list. If multiple account levels exist, users with access to all buildings may adjust the behavior categories/behavior list. If account does not have multiple levels, any user marked “is admin role” may edit/reorder the behavior categories/behavior list.

• If an admin edits the behavior categories/behavior list, all users in all child accounts will see the default behavior categories/behavior list entered by the user.

• If a behavior category is removed, all behaviors underneath that category (both in settings and in the actual point tool itself) are also removed. We may report on these behaviors as they have already been tracked, but we may no longer track behaviors tied to this category.

• If a behavior category is re-named before any data is tracked on that category, this new category name will show on all reports.

• Once data is being collected on the behavior category, it cannot be renamed.

• If there is data being collected on a behavior category, it can be removed and the user can add a new category.

• There must be One category for positive and one category for negative behaviors and One behavior under each to be able to save

• The Rethink Default behavior categories are:

  • Positive

    • Organization

    • Respect

    • Responsibility

    • Accountability

    • Cooperation

  • Negative

    • Disrespect

    • Non-Compliance

    • Aggression

    • Off Task

    • Irresponsibility

• If a default behavior is removed, it will no longer show as a default when tracking for a student/group/classroom for the first time. If a user is already tracking that behavior for the class, the behavior will remain.

• If a default behavior is renamed, the new behavior name will show as a default when tracking for a student/group/classroom for the first time. If a user is already tracking that behavior, the behavior name will not change.

• A user may not change whether a behavior category is positive or negative.

• By default, all positive behaviors will have a point value of +1

• Points may be set to any whole number 0 or higher. If the user does not meet this criterion, they will see an error message

• No point value can be associated with a negative behavior

• If the point value of a behavior is changed in the defaults, it will not impact any classroom/group/student who is already tracking that behavior. The change will impact any new classroom/group/student using the defaults for the first time.

• Users may not have more than 5 positive and 5 negative behavior categories (10 categories total)

• There is no limit to the number of default behaviors within a category

• Behaviors and categories must have a name. If the user does not enter a name and clicks save, the screen will remain open and they will see an error message that reads “Please enter a name for all categories and behaviors.”

Design

• Users can set custom alerts

  • Alert after __# of negative behaviors are recorded for a student within __ # of days/weeks/months/years

    • Users will have the option to edit the numbers

    • Whenever any one student reached this criteria, the user will receive an alert

Business Rules

• Users with permission to Edit Behavior Settings and who are marked “is admin role” will see this section.

• Only the highest level admin users will have permission to edit/reorder the behavior categories/behavior list. If multiple account levels exist, users with Role 7 access may adjust the behavior categories/behavior list. If multiple account levels exist and no Role 7 users exist, any user marked “is admin role” with access to all buildings may adjust the behavior categories/behavior list. If account does not have multiple levels, users with Role 5 access may edit/reorder the behavior categories/behavior list. If an account does not have multiple levels and no Role 5 user exists, any user marked “is admin role” may edit/reorder the behavior categories/behavior list.

• By default, we will alert after:

  • 5 negative behaviors are recorded for a student within 1 week.

• Users will receive alerts for all students in all accounts the user currently has access to (see alerts section)
