Administrator Panel (Admin Panel)

With admin access, teachers will have visibility across all Cadmus assessments and the ability to update settings and timings in bulk.

In this guide, we’ll cover how to:

1. Access the admin panel
2. Navigate the admin panel
3. Bulk update settings

Access the Admin Panel

To open the Admin Panel, launch any Cadmus assessment via the LMS. From the Instructions tab in Cadmus, click the settings icon in the top right corner, then select Admin Panel. This will open the dashboard in a new tab.

Navigating the Admin Panel

At the top of the dashboard, you can switch between Exams and Assignments, with a total count shown for each. 

Filters are available to help you quickly find what you need. Teachers can filter by:

• Subject
• Author
• Format
• Key dates
• More

Selecting More filters allows teachers to refine further using options like special considerations, timings, auto-submission, resubmissions, security settings, marking tools, and more.

Once filters are applied, click Apply Filters to narrow your results, or Clear all filters to reset. 

Below the filters, teachers will see a list of assessments. Quick filters let teachers switch between live, released, draft, and completed items. The list has all the settings and requirements information for each assignment and exam. Teachers can customise the table using Manage Columns, or export the data using Export CSV.

Use the left side check box to select an assignment/exam. For Live, Released and Draft tasks, selecting an assessment displays an Action bar which allows you to update settings based on the type of task:

• View it in Cadmus
• Update assessment or exam settings
• Adjust timings (exam only)
• Adjust due date (assignment only)

These options are also available via the three-dot menu beside each item.

Clicking View Exam will launch the assessment in a new tab, where changes can be made directly to the instructions or settings.

The Exam/Assignment Settings and Update options allow changes to settings, key dates, and timings directly from the Admin Panel dashboard itself. Changes can then be saved by selecting Confirm changes.

For completed tasks, teachers will have options to:

• View it in Cadmus
• Send Reminder (for marking completion)

Bulk Update Settings

The Admin Panel allows updates across multiple assessments at once. To do this:

• Use filters to find the relevant assessments

• Select them using the checkboxes

• Choose Exam Settings or Update Exam Time

• Apply your changes and confirm

You can adjust Exam settings such as timings, reading time, writing time, and other configurations. For the Assignment, assignment settings can also be updated or changed in bulk.
