(New)1. Standard Detail Report : Located under Report Management. The report keeps track of all standards being tested by students. Identifies STAR and Non-STAR, along with levels and average level attained by students.
2. Classroom Grading: Under Test Management. Schools can design the percentage grade students receive on each assessment based on their grading scale or custom design. The percentage achieved by each student that goes into the grade book will be displayed on the results display. Students can immediately see how well that did on their assessment and their grade can be placed into the grade book for their levels. Great motivator for students, because it affects their grade. Two schools of thought, as to percentages: (1) Use school grading scale: 93, 86, 79, 40?, let's not zero a low score. (2) Use Met/Not Met: 93, 70, 68, 40. I like this one. Students that meet the standard get a passing grade. Students not meeting standard get a percentage less than 70% with no zero.
3. Default Grid: Located under Report Management. Allows Teacher to pinpoint concepts not attained by class or specific students on default tests. Truly a Learner Centered module.
4. STAR Monthly Report: Located under Report Management. Allows Administrators and teachers to quickly see how a specific graduation class has performed on all the standards in a given area. In addition, it identifies who has not passed, the number of times they have taken the tests and who hasn't taken the standard. This report makes it very easy to complete the NDE STAR Reported Standards.
5. NCLB-AYP Report: Located under Report Management. Allows Administrators and Teachers to see how their student are performing and to see if they are meeting baseline percentages at real-time. Used to complete the NDE's AYP Reports for Reading Comprehension and Math. Also includes access to the AYP Detail module.

8. Multi-Standard Selection in SIP : This module allows selection of one or all standards to be evaluated and placed into your School Improvement Plan. Basic SIP allows one standard at at time and divided by gender, race, socio, etc.
