Hello - We have been trying to use the Observation Checklist function for sometime now… Sadly, the functionality seems to be very limited. Two things:
Thank you for your help in advance!

We use it to gather information from course designers and users, as well as for peer coaching. It does need a few tweaks but works OK for now...if you plan to use it, make sure you look at the options as you can add one to a course but when you do, you cannot schedule it or re-use it. If you want something that can be used on a schedule, you must assign it outside a course. Also make sure to turn on your notifications otherwise users and approvers may not know that something is pending...and then you can also add the Checklist page to your menus so they can access. Last, there are not reports for OC so it’s all onscreen only and not downloadable, sadly.

Good luck. I hear there is a PM established for OCs. But that is about it.

I saw your comments frequently on the topic as I was researching so I was very happy to see your reply as it is obvious you have really tried to make this a functional feature. Thank you!
Perfect, thank you!

Wow, this is great! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for your response. How do you have your managers provide feedback since the system diesnt allow for two-way conversation?

Since you aren’t using the Oberservation Checklist feature because it doesnt work like it should, how are you capturing/encouraging interaction and accountability between mangers and learners?

Staying outside of the system for this use case. Support good old non-cloud based digital copies of observation PDFs. I know it may seem archaic, but it works.
