The Standards & Outcomes Report
The Standards & Outcomes Report allows administrators to select standards and outcomes and view the associated "met" or "not met" data. By default, the report shows all data. However, you can customize reports by selecting filters to refine the data.
Building a Standards & Outcomes Report Query
A Standards and Outcomes report query is built by choosing a standard or outcome set to report on and giving the query a name. Optionally, data filters can be added to refine the reported data.
To build a simple Standards & Outcomes Report query:
-
From the Reports page, click the
Create New Report button and select
Standards & Outcomes Report.
- On the Select Report Criteria page, select a Set.
- In the Query name field, type a name for the query.
-
Click the RUN button to display the data for
the selected standard or outcome set.
Adding and Removing Filters
To add optional data filters to a report:
- After choosing a standard or outcome set, click the Add Filter button to expand the filters menu.
- Select a filter by clicking the plus (+) icon next to the filter name.
-
After selecting a filter, click on the filter’s text field, and
select the value that should be included in the report from the
drop-down menu.
- Click the RUN button.
To remove a filter from a report:
- Hover over the filter field and click the trash can icon that appears.
- Confirm by clicking the Delete button.
The Standards & Outcomes Report Screen
The Standards & Outcomes Report lists all standards/outcomes in the selected set, displays the number of times each was scored as "met" and "not met," and calculates the percentage of total assessments.
The top half of the report displays scores using pie charts, with green representing "met" data and red representing "not met" data. The bottom half of the report displays the same information in a table format. By default, the report displays all standards/outcomes. However, you can use the drop-down menu near the top of the report to view only specific standards/outcomes.
Tip: Clicking on a number in the chart or table will display a list of the students assessed at that "met" or "not met" status, their assessor, and the assessment timestamp. From this list, clicking a specific assessment will open the student’s assessed submission.
Adding Additional Queries
Once a query has been built and run, additional queries can be built to appear on the same report screen "side-by-side." This is useful for comparing assessments among different groups of people. For example, you can compare current semester data with previous semester data, or data from female students with data from male students. The scores from the two queries can easily be compared in one report.
To add a query to an existing report:
- Create a query and run the report.
- On the report screen, click the Add Query button.
- Build the query, just like any other query.
- Click the RUN button.
The report will now display both queries on the report screen. By default, the data will be sorted by standard/outcome. To sort the data by query name, click the Section By drop-down menu and select Query.
Tip: The visibility of each query can be turned on or off by clicking the checkbox next to the query name.
Copying, Editing, and Deleting Queries
Queries that have been added to a report can be copied, edited, or deleted. To manage a query, hover over it and select one of the following icons:
- Pencil icon – edit the existing query
- Paper icon – copy the query and, optionally, edit it
- Trash can icon – delete the query from the report
