Locate and click 'Methods and Measures' contained in the left-hand menu:

Then click 'Check Out' in the top righthand corner.  This will prevent other users from making edits while you are working.

Once you have checked out the workspace, your edit options will appear in the bottom left corner of the work area: 

For this area you have the option of adding/editing text or attaching files (most file types supported).  Most programs will only add/edit text for this area.  Click 'Text & Image.'

This area has a lot of functionality to customize your information.  You can do everything from tables and images to special characters and anchors.  The Office of Assessment encourages all first time users to keep it simple with text and bullet points/numbers or a simple table.  Once you have entered your Assessment Cycle, click 'Save and Return' on the right side of the screen.  

You will be directed to back to Check-In/Check-Out screen.  Click 'Check-In' in the upper right corner.

If you have made a change to an area you will then be directed to a comment screen:

For initial entries, you can click 'Return to Work Area.'  However, if you are making edits to your Assessment Plan, it is a good idea to leave a comment briefly describing the change(s) made.  Once complete, click 'Submit Comment.'  This lets your colleagues who work in the area after you what you did and why.
