Essential Questions Coverage Report

Previous Topic   |   Next Topic   |  Return to Contents

The essential questions coverage report will show to what extent overarching essential questions 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 the 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.



Some general criteria are chosen for you by default. You can narrow the criteria for the units and question types searched. For example, you can specify a range of unit scheduled start dates or choose a subject and grade from the Subject and Grade drop-downs. 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.

Note: the more targeted the filter criteria is, the faster the report runs.

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 overarching essential questions run down the leftmost column.

An empty cell indicates that the question is not present in Stage 1 Goals for the particular unit.

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

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