User Dashboard Settings

An overview of the 'User Dashboard Settings' page within 'Settings'.

Welcome to the 'User Dashboard Settings' section of R1 Discover. This is where Super Admins have the capability to customize the presentation of topics within user's dashboards. The way topics are organized here creates the 'Company Default' view option on My Dashboard and the User Dashboard.

Accessing User Dashboard Settings

  1. Navigate to the 'Settings' page on the left navigation.

  2. Click on the 'User Dashboard Settings' tab.

The User Dashboard Settings helps ensure users see the most relevant topics in an order that aligns with your program's objectives. Here’s how you tailor this section:

  1. Reordering Topics: Simply drag and drop the topics to rearrange their order. The sequence you set here will determine the default view on both 'My Dashboard' and the 'User Dashboard'.

  2. Previewing Changes: As you reorder topics, consider how they will appear in the user dashboard. Ensure the flow of topics makes sense for a user navigating through their learning journey.

  3. Saving the Configuration: After you've arranged the topics to your satisfaction, click 'Save' to apply these settings. If you wish to discard changes made, you can select 'Reset' to revert to the previous configuration.

Understanding the 'User Dashboard Settings' Logic

The 'User Dashboard Settings' is used to personalize the user interface of 'My Dashboard' and the 'User Dashboard'. Here's a breakdown of how the settings determine what users see on their dashboard:

  1. Initial Dashboard Display: When a user navigates to 'My Dashboard' or 'User Dashboard', the system initiates a check to populate the dashboard charts.

  2. Chart Population Logic:

    • The system begins with the first topic in the order you set in the User Dashboard Settings.

    • It checks whether the user has completed an activity in that topic.

    • If an activity is completed, that topic becomes the first chart on their dashboard.

  3. Sequential Check for Subsequent Charts:

    • The system then moves down the list to find the next completed topic for Chart 2.

    • It includes an additional validation step to ensure the topic for Chart 2 is not already represented in Chart 1.

  4. Continuation of Logic:

    • This process is iteratively applied to Charts 3 and 4.

    • Each chart must represent a different topic, ensuring a diverse overview of the user's progress.

  5. Completion of Dashboard Setup:

    • The system continues these steps until all charts on the dashboard are populated, providing a comprehensive view tailored to the user's activities.

This logic ensures that 'My Dashboard' is a dynamic reflection of a user's progress.
