SD analyzes scores by skill domains and cognitive levels; selecting this creates the SKILL DOMAIN CLASSIFICATION field.

SKILL DOMAIN CLASSIFICATION

(Skill Domain Analysis only)

Select 1 from the available for:

Iowa

  • Common Core State Standard Domains
  • Iowa Assessment Domains
  • Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (Texas only)

Score Filters

 

a. For the SCORE FILTERS field, click Change. The filter box appears with filter options available for the report. These options vary depending on the type of report.

 

b. In the SCORE list, select the specific score type to use as a filter for the test results.

 

Note: Lexile is not available for filtering because it is represented by a range.

 

c.  In the CONTENT AREA list, select one of the skill domains.

 

d. Select a relational operator (is equal to, is greater than, for example) from the COMPARISON list and type a VALUE in the box.

 

e. (Optional) Specify one or two additional filters by selecting AND or OR in the AND/OR list and repeating steps b - d.

 

Note:  Selecting AND adds the additional filter requirement to the previous filter(s); the results contain only those values that meet both filter requirements. (For example: If your filter states “greater than 40 AND less than 50,” then the results include only values between 41 and 49.) Selecting OR includes the additional filter results together with the results of the previous filter(s); the results contain those values that meet either of the filter requirements. (For example: If your filter states “greater than 90 OR less than 10” on a scale of 0 to 99, then the results include values 91 to 99 and values 0 to 9.)
