Overview A Custom Assessment is used to assess knowledge of particular skills, strands and/or standards. It can be administered frequently and is used to measure a small number of very specific skills or used broadly to measure a full nine week period. It can also be administered as a pre- and post-test to measure learning gains.

When creating the assessment, you can refine it by subject, grade, state standards or strand/skill. An individual learning path (ILP) can be created for each student or the test can simply be used to assess knowledge.

Student Progress Report

The Student Progress report is used to view student results on a Custom Assessment. From its results, you can monitor student progress and view the impact of an ILP against weakness.

What to Look For

Step Action

8 As you read the report, notice the following items:

• For failing scores, notice the amount of time the student spenttaking the assessment. How does this compare to the other students? Is the amount of time adequate?

• In the heading of the Student Results by Strand page of the report, you can see the grade level of the student as well as the grade level of the skills that were assessed.

• Has the student taken this assessment more than once? If so, did the student show growth?

• How did the student perform on his/her ILP? Did the student get enough time-on-task in Classworks to complete his/her ILP? Are there any units that the student did not master? If so,you may want to generate an Assignment Results report to view additional details. (See separate job aid for the Assignment Results Report).

• Have you conferenced with the student to discuss his/her scores both on the assessment as well as on the ILP?
