How do I create a tracker from a SIS section?

If Mastery Connect is integrated with your district's Student Information System (SIS), you can add class lists to your tracker directly from the SIS.

Notes:

  • After you create a tracker from a SIS section, the class roster on the tracker automatically updates when changes occur in the SIS.
  • If you previously added students to a tracker either manually or through a CSV file, you can connect those students to the SIS after your school or district has integrated with Mastery Connect. Edit the tracker and link it to a classroom.

Create Tracker

In the Global Navigation menu, click the Trackers link [1], then click the Create Tracker button [2].

To build a tracker from a standard set, click the Standard Set link [3]. To build a tracker from a curriculum map, click the Curriculum Map link [4].
