About the Assessments Table

The assessments table in the Performance on Tests report displays a row of data for each assessment.

This table allows you to access the corresponding Assessment Reports for each assessment listed. The report that you access by clicking the name of a test (or beside it) depends on your user role:

• Teachers access the My Students' Performance on Test report.
• School-level users access the School Performance on Test report.

From any Assessment Report, you can return to the Performance on Tests report by clicking Performance on Tests in the upper-left corner of the page.

The data that appear in this table depend on the options selected in the filter panel. When you first navigate to the Performance on Tests report from the Dashboard, the data are filtered by test group. For more information, see Filtering Tables.

Table 1 describes the columns in the Assessments table.
