Coach your learners in Kolibri¶
You can track progress of the Learners, create and assign Lessons and Quizzes to classes or learner groups from the Coach dashboard. The default view presents the list of Classes with their assigned coaches, and the number of learners enrolled in each class.
Click on a class to access the progress-tracking features and create lessons, quizzes and groups.
Choose one of the classes from this view to access the Kolibri coach features.
Note
Kolibri progress tracking features are available by default in the classroom model, when learner devices are in the same local network as those used by coaches. However, in case of the at-home usage on personal devices, it is necessary to sync facility data between devices for coaches to be able to track learner interactions with resources that happen while they are outside of the local network.

Coach support resources¶
Kolibri Studio supports the option to set visibility for any resource added to channels as a Coach resource. These materials can be lesson plans, professional development readings, training materials, etc. only viewable by coaches and not learners. When content curators set the visibility this way, the resource will not be visible by learners while browsing Kolibri Channels, but only to admins, facility coaches, or other users assigned to coach classes.
However, coach can decide to include any of these resources in lessons or quizzes, in which case they will be visible to learners in the context of that lesson or a quiz.
Setting the visibility of resources in Kolibri Studio.
Coach resources and channels that contain them are marked with the (coach resource) icon in Kolibri.
