Using the Standards Tab in the Content Manager and Standards CSV

The Standards tab in the Content Manager allows administrators to view either the global standards framework or any custom outcome hierarchies configured for the instance.

The Standards tab in the Content Manager allows administrators to view either the global standards framework or any custom outcome hierarchies configured for the instance.

  • The Standards tab is only visible if standards are enabled for the application instance.
  • Instructors can expand the hierarchy to preview its structure and see which questions are available.
  • The standards browser displays item totals based only on content from the current course and publisher products.
  • Only administrators can upload and make changes to the hierarchy.

CSV Format

You can download a CSV containing the hierarchy available in the Standards tab. In a future release, you will be able to make changes to the CSV and import to apply changes globally to the hierarchy. The CSV format is case sensitive.
