Report Properties

  • Updated

District administrators assigned the ADMIN role have the ability to determine District Defaults for the different modules across the application.

These settings can be locked so other users cannot change them, or left unlocked to give other users the flexibility to adjust as they deem appropriate. All default settings appear for each user in My Preferences, located under the user’s name and role in the blue User Menu Bar.

This article covers the permission settings found in the District Defaults > Report Properties.

  1. From the Top Menu Bar Grid icon, click the Admin tile.
    • Or, from the Launchpad, click the ADMIN flip card to reveal the reverse side available options. Select District Defaults > Report Properties.

Report Properties

Click on the “i” icon for a short description of each property.

These properties apply to reports for all district, school, and teacher assessments. If left unlocked, the settings may be changed by any user while logged in to their account,  under My Preferences.

All Reports

Users cannot change this property: Check the open box to set and lock all properties for all other users. Or check the open box next to a specific property to lock only that one.

  1. All Reports - Sets the defaults for all reports as follows:
    • Popular Demographics - Select up to 5 demographics from the drop down menu to be displayed under the Filter Students tab in Reports. The rest will display under the More tab within Filter Students. Options will vary depending on the district SIS.
    • Restricted Demographics - Select the demographic options from the drop down menu that should be restricted from all but ADMIN and District Level users, as determined by permission.
    • Restricted Reports - Select the reports from the drop down menu that should be restricted from all but ADMIN and District Level users, as determined by permission.
    • Past Roster Visibility - District-level users can configure data access restrictions based on their own policies with regards to teachers viewing past rosters and assessments associated with students on those rosters. Slide No to Yes to allow access to past rosters, enter the number of years teachers can access past rosters, and/or slide No to Yes to allow access to assessment data in current year associated with past rosters.
  2. Demographics Profile and Summary - Sets the colors for Proficient/Not Proficient in these reports.
  3. Item Analysis - Sets the STOP Item Correct Threshold and Item Distractor Threshold on the Item Analysis Report. (Note: STOP stands for Scrutinize These On Performance, and are the items in which any students’ percent correct is below the Item Correct Threshold.)
    • Item Correct Threshold - This value is based on the average percent correct for a specific test item. STOP items are those in which the students’ average percent correct is below the set threshold and should be further scrutinized.
    • Item Distractor Threshold - This value is set as the percent of students who all choose the same incorrect answer. For example, when 30% of students all choose the same incorrect answer as displayed on the Item Analysis Report, the item will be flagged as a STOP item.
  4. Standard Analysis:
    • Display Always by Default: Standard Analysis Graph - Presets the display of the Standards Analysis graph in the Standards Analysis Report. Slide No to Yes to show the chart in initial display. Users can show or not show the graph when viewing the actual report.
  5. Standards Progression:
    • Standards Progression Report Options - At least one must be selected - Latest Assessment, All Assessments, All Assessments & Average.
    • Feedback for Standards - This permission will allow for staff and/or students to provide feedback on standards. Click the Staff Users and/or Student Users checkboxes to enable  comments for standards in the Standards Progression Report. By default, both the checkboxes will be unchecked and the feature will be disabled.
  6. Standard Analysis, Standards Progression, & Objective Analysis:
    • Standards Mastery Percentage - Controls the Mastery/Non-Mastery levels on these reports, and which standards will appear as STOP standards. This also controls the Mastered/Not Mastered results on the Summary by Standards Report.
    • Color Scale - Check the box to add a color scale to the Mastery/Non-Mastery results on the Standards Analysis and Standards Progression Reports. Displays scores in the chosen color range from minimum value of 0% to midpoint value of 50% to maximum value of 100%, rather than the two-color option.
    • Include Standards Mastery Performance Levels - Slide No to Yes to display results by Performance Levels, in addition to Mastery/Non-Mastery, on the Standards Analysis and Standards Progression Reports. Performance Levels and colors may be customized by clicking on Edit to make any changes to the Performance Levels. Click Save when done.
  7. Student History, Test Results & Objective Analysis:
    • Display Always by Default: Percentile Rank Bar Chart - Controls if the percentile rank graph or chart will display in the Student History, Test Results, and Objective Analysis reports by default.
  8. Test Results
    • Display Always by Default - Test Results Pie Chart - Presets the display of the Pie Chart in the Test Results Report. Slide No to Yes to show the chart in the initial display. If not the Pie Chart display is enabled, users can still show or hide the chart when viewing the actual report.

Click Save after making any changes to Reports Properties. A message will appear confirming this action.

Click Update District Defaults & My Preferences, or Cancel.
