About Measures

Measures provide a way to track a student's progress using a variety of assessments. Assessments may be standardized tests or other means of measuring a student's progress. By looking at how the student does on measures over time, it is possible to determine the effectiveness of specific interventions.

• Measures for multiple students can be tracked from the School Profile.
• Measures associated with an individual student can also be tracked from the Measures tab on the Student Profile.

Measures happen in two parts:

1. Create the measure - Define the assessment, area of concern and target score.
2. Add assessments.- After the student participates in a series of assessments, enter the results. This could be a series of assessments administered over time.

Once the measure is created and assessment results are recorded over time, the school can generate a Progress Chart based on the data collected using this measure.
