Learning Focus by Student
The Learning Focus report
identifies areas where a student
needs to focus his/her learning
efforts. Based on a proficiency
level you set, the report lists the
learning objective/standards that a
student has not mastered. For
each of the learning
objectives/standards the student
has not yet mastered, the Learning
Focus report lists the learning
objective/standard, the associated
number of items, the points earned
on items, and the proficiency level
that the student has attained.
You can customize the Learning
Focus report to generate the performance data that best meet your needs. You can select one or more class assignments by
category and the date range for the assignments. You can set an appropriate focus range (e.g., 0% - 70%) for the class
assignments at a particular time in the term. As an example, you might set the focus range at 0% to 70% with the first class
assignment that covers a particular learning objective/standard. Then, on a subsequent class assignment on the same learning
objectives/standards, you might set the focus range to 0% to 80%.
You can use the Learning Focus report to help a student know exactly what to study in order to attain mastery level on the
identified learning objectives/standards.
1 Click Report from the menu bar and select Learning Focus by Student.
2 Select which assignments the report should include. You can choose assignments by Category or Term. Or a range of
assignment dates.
3 Select the student for which you wish to display the first report.
4 Select which focus area (learning objective, national standard, state standard, local standard) to include on the report.
The available choices will depend on the information available in the selected assignment.
5 Set the focus range. To change the default setting, set it in the Preferences.
6 To view reports for selected students only, select a report filter. Click Filters to create, edit, or delete an existing filter.
7 Click OK to view the report.
NOTE
The shaded area shows the performance for the median 70% of the students in a class. For
example, if there are 20 students in a class, the top 3 scores (15%) and lowest 3 scores
(15%) would not be included. The range of scores for 14 students (70%) would be
represented. The diamond shows your students' actual performance. Use the graphs to see
how a student performed in relation to his/her class. For example, if the diamond appears
near or past the right edge of the shaded area the student’s performance is in the upper range
for the class. If the shaded area is relatively short, students’ scores were similar.
8 To view the report for a different student, click Previous or Next or select a student from the drop-down list.
