Standards Coverage Report

Previous Topic   |   Next Topic   |  Return to Contents

The standards coverage report will show to what extent state standards have been addressed in the units you have scheduled for a given time period, in a given subject and grade.

The first step in generating a standards coverage report, is to choose the criteria for the report. The criteria choices appear in the gray box at the top of the page, as pictured below.



All of the criteria appearing in the drop-down menus are required. You need to specify the range of unit scheduled start dates you want to report on. Then, choose a subject and grade from the Unit Subject and Grade drop-downs. Finally, choose which standards document you want to report against. If you think you will use this set of criteria frequently, you can put a check mark in the "Make these my Default Settings" box. If you do this, the next time you choose this report, the settings here will run automatically. You can always adjust them later. Finally, if you'd prefer to generate an Excel spreadsheet rather than see the results printed to the browser, place a check mark in the "Send Results to Spreadsheet" box.

When you have all your criteria set, click the "Get Report" button.



Above you see the report that is generated for a specific set of criteria (shown in the gray area above the report). The units are arranged left to right by class. Classes with the earliest scheduled start date are first. The standards for the chosen standards document, in this case Language Arts Literacy (2004), appear down the left most column. If a unit includes the standard, it receives one of the indicators in its column. An empty cell indicates that the standard is not present in Stage 1 Goals for the particular unit.

A circular, red icon inside the cell indicates that the standard is present in the unit, but no Stage 2 Assessments or Stage 3 Learning Events have been aligned to the particular standard.

The yellow icon indicates that the standard is present in Stage 1 Goals but is missing an alignment to either Stage 2 or Stage 3.

The green icon with 3 parallel lines indicates that the standard is both present in Stage 1 Goals and that the standard is aligned with at least one Stage 2 Task or Other Evidence as well as at least one Stage 3 Learning Event.

Hovering your mouse over the standard code will reveal the full text of the standard (or indicator/benchmark). This also works on the unit headings (full unit title revealed) and the red, yellow, and green icons.
