Instructor Feedback

Your students are on a never ending journey of progression through the ranks of your martial arts program. AXIS tracks the progress of sessions and days on each rank, but how does it know if a student is really ready? Have they learned the skills? Do they have the right attitude? 

Giving feedback to students is an important step in their journey of improvement and learning new skills in time for grading day.

Instructor Feedback in AXIS allows you to give written feedback to a student, which then gets emailed directly to them. It's quick and easy to use, and designed to be used on a tablet or other mobile device by instructors on the floor teaching.

Here's how to set up your student list...

The first step is to add the students to your list, this might be everyone in your class, or you may be working with a few students to the side whilst another instructor is taking the main group.

1. Navigate to Grading.
2. Select Instructor Feedback.
3. Click on the filter button.
4. Use the Checked-In Today option if you want someone from the class you are in.
5. Choose the program and syllabus.
6. Select ranks (for example, you may just be working with the Green belts today in an all rank class).
7. Select the students by clicking on the checkbox.
8. Click Add Feedback.

Here's how to give feedback...

Now you have set up your student list, it's time to start leaving feedback. 

As you work with the students, make a note of the skills being worked on for each of them.

Note: It is common for a group of students to be working on the same skills, so there are handy copy and paste buttons to save you time and allow you to focus on what is important... working with the students!

As you are wrapping up the session, write up your feedback and then just hit Post to send the feedback directly to them via email.

1. Click on the Edit pencil.
2. Add the skills worked on.
3. Add your feedback.
4. Click Post Feedback.

You can view the feedback history on the student's profile...

You can use the sorting options to change the order of students in the grading list.

1. Click on the Sort button.
2. Select your sorting preference (e.g. Last Name, Ranks, Days or Descending).
