Fields marked as "Visible on Student Grades" in Student Fields are displayed along the top of the screen. The assessment section shows the EOC and Assessment requirements, and indicates which requirements the student has met; for post-secondary students, this module displays program and credit hour requirements. Note: The information that displays here varies depending on district settings.
When the Test History Summary is displayed, the students graphed test parts appear as line graphs that show score trends over time for tests taken more than once.
Each graph represents a single test part and score type selected in the Graph Score setup via Assessment > Standardized Tests by administrators.
- The graph title displays the test name and score type (for example, FST ELA Scale Score (Expanded Standard Score)).
- The horizontal axis (X-axis) represents the test administration dates.
- The vertical axis (Y-axis) represents the selected score type value.
- Each plotted point corresponds to a test attempt, and the points are connected to illustrate the students performance trend over time.
These data points are plotted chronologically and connected by a line, allowing you to quickly see changes in the student's performance across multiple test administrations. This visual trend helps identify improvement, decline, or consistency in scores without reviewing each individual test record.
You can also review all of the student's test administrations in the Test History Report, which includes the Gradelevel of the student when the test was taken, the Date the test was taken, the Test, test Part, test Score, Achievement Level, and Pass indicator.
