Viewing Score Reports

Score reports provide data for different entities and individual student performance on Ohio Assessment tests. ORS provides score reports for the overall subject of a test, as well as the measurement categories within a subject.

You can use score reports to identify areas where students are performing well and where student performance can be improved. You can view performance trends to see if overall performance is improving over time. Data can be compared with the overall state and district averages for the test you are analyzing.

All score report data are based on the number of students with scored tests. Students who completed but did not submit their tests for scoring are excluded from these reports. If students continue to complete tests over the course of the testing window, the data may change constantly.

Alert: Since ORS presents data as students complete and submit their online tests, it does not take into account any accountability rules. Hence, ORS data is preliminary and may not be used for accountability purposes.

Note: For tests that include both computer-scored components and hand-scored components, students must complete both components within a subject and the ORS must receive the scores for each before it displays the corresponding score reports. For more information about test scoring, see the Ohio Assessment Portal (http://oh.portal.cambiumast.com/).

Depending on your user role, you can view different types of score reports at different levels of aggregation (see Navigating Score Reports with the Exploration Menu).

Table 1 provides an overview of the types of score reports available in the ORS and the levels of aggregation at which they can be viewed.
