Overview of the Assessment Reports

Each Assessment Report provides information about how students performed on a particular assessment. Assessment Reports display a section showing student performance data for the assessment as a whole and, typically, additional expandable sections showing more detailed performance data, such as performance within reporting categories Topics or skill areas.

Assessment Reports are available for each assessment at various levels:

• The Corporation Performance on Test report, available to corporation-level users, provides information about how your corporation performed on the assessment, by school.
• The School Performance on Test report, available to school- and corporation-level users, provides information about how a school performed on the assessment, by roster A group of students typically representing a class and by student.
• The My Students’ Performance on Test report, available to teachers, provides information about how a teacher's associated students performed on the assessment, by roster and by student.
• The Roster Performance on Test report provides information about how a roster’s students performed on the assessment, by student. If students are not grouped into rosters, any students in your jurisdiction can be found in an ad hoc roster called (Students Not In Any Roster).
• The Student Performance on Test report provides information about how an individual student performed on the assessment.

Navigation between Assessment Reports is simple:

• Users can easily navigate from a higher-level Assessment Report to a lower-level one and vice versa. For example, school-level users can access the Student Performance on Test report for each student listed in their School Performance on Test reports. To navigate back to a higher level, use the links in the breadcrumb trail at the upper-left corner of each report.

• Assessment Reports for groups of students may display a dropdown list in the heading of each report table. This dropdown list allows you to switch to the report for any other assessment in the same top-level test group An assessment type, as listed in the top level of the Dashboard Generator options that was taken with the same test reason A category for test opportunities. You may find it easier to navigate using the assessment dropdown list than to return to the Performance on Tests page to find a different assessment.
