Additional Categories
Note the following for the additional categories shown on the report:
- The performances on all the additional categories are given in Achievement Levels 1-5. Refer to Proj Ach Level description above for details on each achievement level.
- The aggregate data for teachers, schools and districts in each category are the averages of all student's achievement levels for that category.
- Under the names of the categories “n=#” indicates how many items there were under the particular category.
DOK [6]: Depth of knowledge indicates how each student performed on items for higher and lower order thinking skills. DOK levels 1, 2 and 3 are the categories for thinking skills. DOK Level 1 items are lower order while levels 2 and 3 are higher order.
Text Difficulty [7]: How each student performed in each of the three levels:
- Readily Accessible (Easy)
- Moderately Complex (Medium)
- Very Complex (Hard)
Reporting Category/GroupResults [8]: How each student performed in each of the reporting groups covered.
Note: The category used in the Results section depends on the subject and the number of standards covered on the assessment. If there are enough items per standard/objective (i.e., the most specific category available), the report is by standard/objective. Otherwise, the report is by a higher (less specific) category (i.e., strand, domain, etc.) that best reflects student understanding. Some categories may also be grouped together when most appropriate.
Genre Results (ELA only) [9]: How each student performed on the items for each of the Reading Genres:
- Literary
- Informational/Nonfiction
