Naming Protocol for Assessments

Roles and Permissions: Admin and District level users (and other roles as decided by the District Administrator) have permission to create and edit District Assessments. School and Teacher level users normally have permission to view, administer, and score District Assessments.

Suggested Naming Protocol: School Year_Subject_Grade_Topic name

Example: 2021_Math_Algebra1_Q1

Roles and Permissions: School level users (and other roles as decided by the District Administrator) have permission to create and edit School Assessments. Teacher level users normally have permission to view, administer, and score School Assessments.

Suggested Naming Protocol:

School Year_School_Subject_Grade_Topic name

Example: 2021_Maryland_ELA_Grade 3_Benchmark 3

Roles and Permissions: Teacher level users have permission to create, edit, administer, score, and delete their own created assessments. Because these assessments can be shared with other Teacher users according to District permissions, it is suggested that enough information be included in the name so others understand what the assessment covers.

Suggested Naming Protocol:

School Year_School_Subject_Grade_TeacherName_Topic name

Example: 2021_Maryland_Math_G6_Flanary_RP Check

1. Check with your district on established naming protocols.
2. Name the topic or specific content of the standard being assessed in the naming of the assessment. Identify the math unit or literature study for the assessment.
3. Create Collections: Collections are online organization tools, like folders. Your assessment can be added to an existing collection, or you can create a new collection for the assessment so that you are able to group assessments, such as vocabulary assessessments.
4. Searchable: The name of your assessment should be searchable.
