How do I manage an Assessment Scores mapping definition for an assessment for my institution?

As an Elevate K-12 Analytics admin, you can normalize your institution's assessment reporting methods using Assessment Scores performance indicators. To create an assessment score performance level, you must first define the mapping. You can also edit existing mapping definitions.

When you define the mapping, you must select the source, reporting method, and included assessments, and configure the performance levels.

Once the mapping is defined, you can configure the mapping, including reporting methods with non-numeric scores. Additionally, you can customize Assessment Scores by school year and grade level.
