Get to know the Desktop menu. Create worksheets, folders and generate assesements and self-study materilas with the help of with AI.
When you log in, the Desktop is the first interface you'll see on Redmenta. It's essentially the landing page, where the content you've created on Redmenta and the task pages you've shared with it appear.
What do you find on the Desktop?
- folders
- courses (coming soon)
- self-edited worksheets
- AI-generated worksheets
- content shared with you (e.g.: worksheets, courses)
If you are new to Redmenta, your feed is still empty. However, by creating new worksheets and courses, copying from the Catalogue, creating folders, you will soon fill this section with content that will make your Redmenta feed colourful and unique, full of exciting assignments and digital lessons. If you're a student on Redmenta, most of your feed will be packed with worksheets that your teachers share with you.
What is the Desktop for?
1.) Here you can start editing worksheets, folders and courses. To do this, just click on the Create button at the top of the Desktop and select what you want to edit (e.g. folder, worksheet). If you choose to generate content with AI, click on the Generate AI worksheet button.
2) Here you can filter the content that appears on the Desktop. You can start filtering by the type of content that appear in the feed (e.g.: worksheet, folder, course).
3) Here you can sort the content items that appear in the feed. There are several types of order you can sort by:
- by the most recently used items, e.g. last edited, last received a completion (Recent)
- in alphabetical order by the title of the content (Alphabetical)
- alphabetical order by the name of the editor (Owner)
- by date of creation (Date created)
In fact, if you think it's more convenient and transparent, you can also change the order of the folders here. In this case, the folders are placed on top. To do this, tick the Folders first option in the sorting.
How is a worksheet card built up?
In the Desktop, content items are displayed as cards, which provide you with a range of important information, including the sharing settings for the worksheet and the status of its completion.
1) Each card shows the title and description of the worksheet (or course).
2.) Optionally, the card can be accompanied by a cover image to make the feed more colourful and transparent (coming soon).
3.) The top left corner of the card will contain the initials of the editor's name.
4.) The top right corner of the card shows the sharing settings, the number of people who have completed, and the number of completions you have approved (if all completions have been approved, a tick will appear next to the number of completions). In student view this is different, it's the percentage of their work that appears.
5) The cards also have buttons such as Preview, Fill, and Results. This button varies depending on whether you are the editor or the filler of the worksheet.
- As an editor, the Preview button appears, which takes you to the Edit page of the worksheet.
- For fillers, the Fill button appears, which takes them to the Fill page of the worksheet.
- Fillers may also see the Results button, which takes them to the Results page of the completed worksheet.
This button also shows the deadline for completing the worksheet.
6) The other button is located at the bottom of each card. Clicking on it will bring up all the menus and settings related to the worksheet. The first four items represent the different menu items, so here you can switch to the editor interface, the settings menu, the fill and the results page. This is also where the additional action buttons are displayed, i.e. this is where you can:
- sort the worksheet into a folder, move it to another folder,
- clone it (make a copy),
- print it,
- upload it to a catalogue,
- delete it,
- copy its Jumper Code.
