Purpose: to use your Benchmark Assessment results to make instructional decisions in the classroom.
*For online assessments in grades 3–6 and grades 1–2 Math
Over the course of the 2019-20 school year, Assessment and Reporting Committee (ARC) teams in second and fourth grades developed and piloted cumulative math benchmark assessments. Through this journey, the teams generated a list of data sets to help them gather student progress at the point of administration (summative), make decisions on instruction moving forward (formative), and identified the available reports in DnA by Renaissance (formally Illuminate) which projected this data. Below are the reports teachers can access to find the data sets listed by the ARC teams.
Individual vs. class overall performance on an assessment
Student vs. class performance on items, standards, or question groups
Identification of common misconceptions and error patterns for an entire group
Overall class performance by student
Student raw response data for preview of download

Identifies a single student's overall score and proficiency level on a test.
A letter that provides information on a student's score, standard performance, performance level, question groups and answers on a specific assessment.
