Entering or Modifying Item Scores

Reporting allows authorized users to enter or modify scores for certain items:

• Unscored Items: These are items that require hand scoring and arrive in Reporting without any scores. All field-authored writing items must be scored by hand. For more information, refer to Entering Scores for Unscored Items and Submitting Scored Test Opportunities for Processing.
  • You may also be able to assign test opportunities to other users for scoring. For more information, refer to Assigning Test Opportunities to Be Hand-Scored.
• Machine-Scored Items: These items would typically require hand scoring, but arrive in Reporting with automated scores generated by the machine scoring system, which can be overridden by users. For more information, refer to Entering Scores for ELA Performance Tasks and Modifying Scores for Machine-Scored Items in Reports.
