Create Test Scores Overview Reports

Benchmark Reports help teachers better understand how their students are performing on tests over the course of the year. The Test Scores Over Time graphs allow you to see how individual students and entire classes are performing on each test given. Using these graphs it’s easy to identify trends and issues that can help inform your instruction and improve the outcomes for your students.

You can begin by making a selection in the table on the left.

Why do overall average test scores sometimes differ for Standards Performance reports and Test Scores reports for the same assessment?

Standards Performance reports add up the points earned for each standard tagged to a question and in some cases a question may have multiple standards associated with it. Test Scores reports look only at the points earned for each question on the assessment. Because of this, an assessment can have a slightly different overall average test score based on whether you are looking at a Standards Performance-based vs a Test Scores-based report.
