What is "Basic" integration?

• The key feature of a Basic-integrated MLL class is a direct class link within your LMS course, streamlining student navigation to your integrated MLL class and its assignments. 
• By launching one of your integrated MLL class links, students are automatically enrolled in your integrated MLL class and will not be required to make their FADavis.com logins independently.
• With a Basic Integration setup, the grades for your integrated MLL assignments will not automatically write-back to your LMS gradebook, so you'll need to manually enter MLL assignment scores if you want to make them part of your class' final grades. For more information on MLL grading and how to enter grades into your LMS gradebook, please consult the "Grading" section of our Instructor "Grading" article.  

 

How do I integrate MLL assignments into my LMS course?

• Before you integrate MLL assignments into your LMS course, you'll first need to confirm you've got an FADavis.com account with access to the necessary textbooks and resources. Please contact your program's Educational Consultant (EC) or Business Development Manager (BDM) to set up your FADavis.com account. If you're unsure who your EC or BDM is, ask your program's admin or course coordinator to identify your EC or BDM. 
• In addition to confirming with your EC or BDM that you've got an FADavis.com with the necessary resources, please confirm with your program's admin whether you will need to personally insert MLL class links into your LMS course, whether your admin (or otherwise) will insert MLL class links for you, or whether you'll be able to copy an MLL class that's already been set up. 
• If your integrated MLL class links will be inserted into your LMS course for you, please consult our Instructor "Quick-start Guide" article for information on launching your integrated class links and finalizing your MLL Class Set-up. 
• If you're directed to copy an integrated MLL class that's already been set up, please consult our "Copying Classes" article. 
• If you're directed to insert MLL assignments into your own LMS course, please consult our "Create a Class" article. 

 

How do I edit the settings for my integrated MLL assignments?

• Confirm with your admin whether you will need to edit the settings for your integrated MLL assignments. In the event your LMS course and integrated MLL class have been prepared for you, for example, you will likely only need to edit the due dates for your integrated MLL assignments and confirm the settings chosen in your MLL Class Set-up. 
• For more information on editing the settings for your integrated MLL assignments within your MLL Class Set-up, please consult the "Finalize your MLL Class Set-up" section of our Instructor "Quick-start Guide" article. 
• Once your integrated MLL class links have been configured and inserted into your LMS course, you won't need to edit your MLL class links further, unless advised to do so by an Integration team member. 

 

How do I set due dates for my integrated MLL assignments?

• You will need to set due dates within your MLL Class Set-up for each respective assignment. For more information on setting due dates within your MLL Class Set-up, please consult the "Finalize your MLL Class Set-up" section of our Instructor "Quick-start Guide" article.
• In the event your student doesn't complete an integrated MLL assignment module exercise by the due date set within your MLL Class Set-up, including if your student completes an assignment module exercise after its due date, MLL will mark that entire assignment module with a red zero in your MLL Gradebook.
• If you would like, you'll be able to appeal this late-work zeroes using your MLL Gradebook's "Accept Late Work" feature. For more information on accepting late work, please consult the "MLL Gradebook Features" section of our Instructor "Grading" article. 

 

Why is my student unable to access my integrated MLL assignments?

• If your student is encountering access errors, direct that student to contact Customer Support via [email protected] for further assistance. Customer Support will diagnose then resolve student-reported access errors. 
• For more information on what could be causing student access issues, please consult our Instructor "Enrollment Issues" article. 
• To model the correct way to access your integrated MLL assignments, please provide your students with our Student "Quick-start Guide" article, ideally at the beginning of your course.
• Our Student "Quick-start Guide" functions as an asynchronous student orientation for your integrated MLL class, and will provide them step-by-step instruction on joining your integrated MLL class, completing its assignments, and accessing their eBook. 

 

How do I check student performance on integrated MLL assignments? 

• To access your MLL Gradebook, use the launch instructions as shown by our Instructor "Quick-start Guide" article. You will primarily visit your MLL Gradebook page for only two reasons: to confirm student scores, or to enter grading exceptions via your MLL Gradebook features.  
• In the case of grading exceptions, you'll be able to accept late work, extend due dates, and/or reset assignments via your MLL Gradebook features. 
• For more information on viewing student performance, using MLL Gradebook features, and/or how to export a spreadsheet to make manually entering MLL grades easier, please consult our Instructor "Grading" article. 

 

Why aren't my student's grades recording?

• When a student reports their score for an exercise isn't being recorded by MLL, please confirm whether the student has completed the exercise they've claimed to have completed. To confirm their exercise completion, navigate to your MLL Gradebook to check if there's a score for the exercise in-question. 
• If you find the student has a red zero for the entire assignment module which contains the exercise in-question, that means the student completed that exercise or another exercise within its assignment module after its due date. Please consult the "MLL Gradebook Features" section of our Instructor "Grading" article for more information on accepting late work. 
• If a student claims their grades aren't recording, and you check your MLL Gradebook to find no record of the student completing any work, it's possible they didn't enroll in your integrated MLL class and have been completing assignments under "Independent Study Mode." Please consult the "Independent Study Mode" section of our "Enrollment Issues" article for information on how to proceed. 

 

Why did my student's grade change, when they went back to review an MLL assignment?

• If a student reports that their grade for an assignment module changed after they went back to review its contents, the most-likely reason their grade changed is that student went back and completed exercises they didn't complete before your assignment module's due date. 
• To confirm why a student's grade changed, please access your MLL Gradebook, to check whether the assignment module in-question has a red zero as its total score. When an MLL assignment module has a red zero as its grade in your MLL Gradebook, that means at least one exercise within that assignment module was completed after the assignment's due date; that red zero functions as a late-work flag for you the instructor, indicating that you'll need to accept/reject late work to get rid of the late-work flag.
• For more information on addressing a red zero, please consult the "MLL Gradebook Features" section of our Instructor "Grading" article.

 

How do I preview my integrated MLL assignments, to get a closer look at what my students are working on?

• For an overview of each MLL activity and exercise type, as well as implementation recommendations for each activity and exercise type, please consult our Instructor "Assignment Exercise Types" article.
• For a step-by-step of what students will need to do to complete each MLL activity and exercise type, alongside examples of the exercise types found within each MLL activity type, please consult our Student "Assignment Exercise Types" article. 
• To get a closer look at the MLL assignments that are available within your integrated MLL class, you can launch an integrated MLL class link as if you were a student. After launching an MLL class link, you'll land on your Medical Language Lab My Products page, with listings for each of the MLL-enabled textbooks you've got access to. Choose the appropriate textbook, to navigate to the MLL Classes page of your textbook or further to your class' Dashboard.
• On your MLL Classes page and within your MLL class' Dashboard, you will see separate links to launch a "Preview Student View" for your class. When launching a "Preview Student View" from these two locations, the preview offered will reflect the settings choice you made for your integrated MLL class. Within a "Preview Student View," you'll be able to work through MLL assignments as if you were a student. 
• Additionally, you can navigate to the "Assignments" page of your integrated MLL class and click the "Preview Content" button for any of the activities and exercises you've assigned your students. 

 

Can multiple instructors manage a single integrated MLL class?

• Multiple co-instructors can manage a single integrated MLL class, and different access privileges can be given to each respective co-instructor. For more information on adding co-instructors to your integrated MLL class, please consult our "Adding Co-Instructors" article. 

 

Can I copy integrated MLL classes from one LMS course to another?

• For the sake of being able to copy integrated MLL content in the future, please never delete integrated MLL classes from your MLL Classes page. 
• Full instructions for copying your integrated MLL classes can be found in our "Copying Classes" article.
• To copy the setup of one MLL class to make another, perhaps for an upcoming semester or for an additional concurrent section, you'll first need to clone your MLL class via your Classes page. After cloning your class within MLL, contact [email protected] for instructions on inserting a class link into your new LMS course. 
• The majority of settings from your source integrated MLL class will carry over into its clone, but you will need to go into the cloned MLL class' Class Set-up to set due dates and confirm assignment Grading Options.
