MasteryGrids system is an interactive learning tool that helps you improve and track your understanding of course concepts. The system visualizes your progress through different course topics using a color-coded grid, where darker shades indicate higher mastery levels. As you work through the exercises and questions, you’ll not only strengthen your knowledge, but you can also earn extra credit. Specifically, you will receive a checkmark for a topic when you complete at least two Independent problems in it, and you can earn up to two extra points toward your final grade if you get checkmarks for all the topics presented in MasteryGrids. However, beyond the extra points, active engagement with MasteryGrids is an excellent way to reinforce learning. You can access the system anytime to practice and improve at your own pace.
Introducing a new learning tool: MasteryGrids (Extra Credit)
Please note that your activity in MasteryGrids will be evaluated based on your progress until each exam date. For instance, you can get extra credit for the SQL part for your work completed BEFORE exam 1.
To get started, simply follow the http://adapt2.sis.pitt.edu/kt/ and log in using your existing MySQL data server username with “s26” added at the beginning. For example, if your data server username is m123, your MasteryGrids username will be “s26m123”. The password is the same as the one you use for the MySQL server. If you would have any questions, please reach out directly to Prof. Bauman at kbauman@temple.edu.
