Exporting Individual Student Reports (ISR) per Test Opportunity

You can use Reporting to generate and export Individual Student Reports (ISR), each of which details a student’s performance on a test opportunity. ISRs are useful for sharing performance information with students and their parents and guardians.

ISRs vary according to the type of test and the options you select. Here are some common ISR features:

At the top of a typical ISR, you will find information about the student, the name of the test, the district, and the school..
Each ISR includes a summary of the student’s performance.
Some ISRs include information on standard error of measurement (SEM).
Many ISRs include a comparison table showing the average performance of the state, district, and/or school.
Many ISRs include a table detailing the student’s performance in each reporting category.

There are two ways to generate and export ISRs:

Select the button to the left of any listed individual student test opportunity to download a quick-printed ISR with a single click directly to your computer (not to the Secure File Center). The quick print option is available beside each student name in the Performance by Student tab and the Student Performance on Test report, as well as beside each assessment name in the Student Portfolio Report. For more information on reports, refer to Viewing Reports. An advantage of the quick print button is that it allows you to quickly download an ISR for any test opportunity in these reports, even if a student took the same assessment multiple times with the same test reason. All quick-printed ISRs are detailed and in English.
Use the Student Results Generator to export single or multiple ISRs to the Secure File Center. You can select any combination of a test reason, assessments within a subject or grade, and students. The Student Results Generator can be opened from almost any Reporting page and be used to simultaneously print large numbers of ISRs. It can also optionally print the following:
- Simple ISRs instead of detailed ones
- Non-English-language ISRs

To use the Student Results Generator to export ISRs:

1.Select the Download Student Results button in the Features & Tools menu. The Student Results Generator window opens. Depending what page you open the Student Results Generator from, the options available to you may be prepopulated or preselected; for example, the Student Portfolio Report prepopulates a single student, and the Student Performance on Test report preselects a single test opportunity. (The filters applied to the page have no effect, however.) You can change the selections.

2.In the panel on the left, select Individual Student Report. Always do this before making other selections. Switching between the Individual Student Report and Student Data File options may revert some selections.

3.Optional: Select Include only those students who were mine when they tested. This setting allows you to include students who were within your jurisdiction at the time of testing (regardless of their current associations or enrollments). If you select this checkbox, students who were not within your jurisdiction at the time of testing are excluded.

This option appears only if the reporting school year and time are set to the present in Change Reporting Time Period.

4.If you’re generating multiple ISRs, choose either a single PDF for all the ISRs, or a ZIP file containing a separate PDF for each one. If you select Single PDF, the Student Results Generator may nonetheless create a ZIP file of multiple PDFs depending on the number of schools, grades, and test opportunities included.

5.Under PDF Type, select either a simple or a detailed ISR.

6.If the test opportunity options are not preselected, or if you want to change them, there are two ways to make selections:

Search for students. In the search field at the upper-right corner, enter up to five comma-separated student IDs and select Search. The resulting list of students and all the tests they’ve taken will replace any previous selections. To deselect and clear results, select Clear Search Results.
Use the three accordion sections. (If a student is prepopulated by the Student Portfolio Report, first remove the student by selecting Clear Search Results.) Starting from the left, select the section bars to expand them or use the Next and Previous buttons to navigate. Within each section you must make selections:

i. In the Select Test Reason section, select a test reason. A test reason always indicates the test window in which a summative test was taken.

ii.In the Select Assessments section, choose either Select by Subject or Select by Grade. Then select a single subject or grade and any number of tests within it.

iii.In the Select Students section, choose students from the expandable school and/or class (roster) options. If you're a district-level user, you may choose students in up to three schools. Students not grouped into classes are found under (Students Not In Any Roster).

Before choosing students, you may filter by a date range. Select Filters, choose start and end dates in the menu, and then select Apply. Students are filtered by Reporting processing date, which is not always the same as the date a test was taken. Selecting Clear Filters and then Apply clears the filter.
Sometimes the list of students is truncated. You can display the entire list by selecting Click to Load More.
Selecting the checkbox for a student in one class (roster) or school also marks it for that student in all their classes or schools, and the same goes for clearing the checkbox.

7.If more than one language is available, then from the Language dropdown list, select a language for the ISR.

8. Select Generate. Once ISR generation is finished, the ISR or ISRs are exported to the Secure File Center and available for download.
