This lesson will guide users through using an Assessment View. This feature allows users to view results from multiple assessments simultaneously. For example, users could see the distribution of how students are scoring within proficiency bands for ELA in grades 3-8.

This lesson assumes users have already created an Assessment View or have access to one that a colleague shared with them. If users have not, see the Create/Edit an Assessment View lesson for details.

  1. Go to Assessments.
  2. Select View Assessments.
  3. Select the title of an Assessment View.
