The District Totals report is only available in a District Admin Account and is best used with District Managed Subject Tabs. This report will give an overview of the entire district, by school or by individual teacher.
1. From your Admin Dashboard, select “Data” located on the left side of the application window. This will take you to the Data Page, which will always default on the “Schools” tab. (Please note, the “District Reports” button in the bottom right corner of the application window will remain constant throughout all levels of the Data Page hierarchy by default).
2. Click on the blue button in the bottom right corner of the application screen to see all the available reports associated with your selection.
3. From this pop-up, click on District Totals:
4. Once the report runs, easily switch to run the report for another Subject Tab by clicking the drop down arrow. To run the report for a specific grade level, click the “Grade” drop down arrow and select the grade level:
Select the Settings Options:
"Display results as":
- If the "Score" radio button is selected, the student score for the test will be shown.
- If the "Percent" radio button is selected, the percentage will be shown.
"Display not tested as":
- If the "NT" radio button is selected, an "NT" will display if the student was not tested.
- If the "Zero" radio button is selected, those same values become 0.
"Scores/Percents":
- If "Carry forward" is checked, the score will reflect the student's last test session regardless which marking period they were tested in. If the student is not tested during the 2nd marking period, the 1st marking period's score will remain.
- If "Carry forward" is not checked, only the scores from specific marking periods are shown.
"Marking Period":
- If the "Current" radio button is selected, only scores from the current marking period will be shown.
- If the "All" radio button is selected, scores from all marking periods will be shown.
“Marking Period Columns and Scores”:
At the beginning of the school year, the District Totals Report will have only two columns of data for each test. The "B" is the baseline and the "1" is the First Marking Period.
- The Baseline Score is the number of questions the student answered correctly the first time tested (regardless of the test date or marking period).
- If the student was in ESGI last year (as a full student or for a pre-assessment), then the “B” Score is the final score from the previous year; this only happens when the exact same test is being used in both years. The "B" Score can be changed only by deleting the Baseline Test.
- The first marking period score is the score from the most recent test administration within the 1st marking period. This score will continue to change as the test is re-administered.
- When the second marking period begins and the test is administered again, a “2” column will appear
“Comparing the Baseline Score to Other Marking Period Scores”:
- If the "B" score is 0, but the "1" column has a number, then:
- the first time the test was given, any (or all) questions were marked incorrect and can happen if just one question was marked incorrect, and the test was closed. When the student was tested again during the 1st marking period, at least one question was answered correctly. - If the "B" score is the same as the "1" column, then:
- the test was given only once or
- the test was given more than once, but the student did not get any additional answers correct. - If the "B" score is less than the "1" column, then:
- the test was given more than once, and the student answered more questions correctly on the 2nd (or 3rd, etc.) time the test was given within the 1st marking period - If the "B" score is more than the "1" column, then either:
- the test was given a second time within the 1st marking period, Retest All was selected, and the student did not answer as many correctly as the first time
- the test was given in the 2nd marking period. The 1st marking period will be "0" and the "2" column will display the score from the most recent test administration in the 2nd marking period.
5. Sort the report by clicking on School Name, Marking Period for a Test, or the Average % Correct. The arrow next to the column heading identifies the sorted column.
