After Assessment View Data has been uploaded into eduCLIMBER, users need to consider different features and functions to view the data in the desired format. This lesson begins assuming an Assessment View from DnA has already been linked to eduCLIMBER and the 24 hour time period has passed that the data has been uploaded into eduCLIMBER.
Required Permission: Link Assessment Views to eduCLIMBER
Before You Begin
This lesson begins assuming users have linked Assessment Viewed to eduCLIMBER and have waited the 24 hour periods for the data to be uploaded. For more information on this, visit Create and Manage an Assessment View.
Users should verify if data needs to be Validated or if any errors need to be corrected. This ensures that all expected data is brought into eduCLIMBER to visualize.
- Go to Uploads.
- Select View All Uploaded Files.
- Review the Upload Type Illuminate DnA Assessments to access Assessment View data.
For more information on validating data, visit Assessment Validations.
- Go to System Configuration.
- Select Assessments.
- Choose the name of the Assessment Group from the list. This should match the name of the Assessment View from DnA.
- Performance Bands are uploaded and linked to the assessment from DnA. This can also be reviewed in Uploads as shown in the Review Uploads section of this article.
-
Score Details are automatically created based on information from the assessments. These include:

- Questions Answered

If the assessments in the Assessment View contained more than one Performance Band set, more than one Performance Band will be listed. Consider creating an Overall Performance Band for the assessment to view desired results. To learn about creating bands, visit Creating Performance Bands.
If a Default Performance Band is not set, all Charts display in grey. Performance Bands can be chosen on the Chart itself, but setting a default allows the Performance Bands to display automatically.
- Go to System Configuration.
- Select Assessments.
- Choose the name of the Assessment Group from the list. This should match the name of the Assessment View from DnA.
- Select Performance Bands.
- If the Assessment Group does not have a default Performance Band, it is denoted below the group name.
- Select an existing Performance Band as imported from DnA
- OR select Add Band to create a new common Performance Band if needed or if multiple bands were imported from DnA.
Toggle Default on to use the selected Performance Band as the default for Charts. Update the values or colors as needed.
Users may want to merge assessments into a New assessment for the purpose of better longitudinal reporting. Merging the existing assessments into DnA to a new eduCLIMBER assessment pulls all of the charts into one. While this is not required, it may be beneficial to admin level users that have access to more than one class of students.
- Go to System Configuration.
- Go to Assessments.
- Select the name of the Assessment Group and then select Assessments.
- Select New to create an additional assessment to Merge the assessments into.
- Enter an Assessment Name. This should be a more generic name that encompasses the convention used of the existing assessments.
- Enter a Category for the assessment. This should match the Category of the other assessments.
- Select an Assessment Type.
- Select Save Assessment.
- Select the original Assessments from the table.
- Select Merge.
Choose the New Assessment that was created for the purpose of merging. Select Apply.
If an error occurs when trying to merge, students have scores in more than one of the selected assessments. Please review the assessment data, students with multiple scores cannot be accommodated at this time in merged assessments.
