Engaging a Session

After a database is created containing classes, standards, lessons and team activities, you can gather performance data by
engaging a lesson or activity. All sessions of available lessons or activities use the Engage icon found in the Lessons,
Standards or Team Activities sections. Whenever you engage a lesson or activity, session options can be set through the CPS
- Session Setup
window. Lessons, FastGrade lessons, standards and There It Is! team activities can be engaged.

Follow the steps below to engage a session using a lesson or standards.
