These additional assessments settings can be set for each Adaptive Assessment.
Adaptive Reporting Group
Adaptive Reports allow you to track progress over time and analyze scores for Learning Areas over time for assessments within the same reporting group. To group assessments, use the same reporting group name for each assessment you want to group together.
Grading Scale - Adaptive Options
Figure 1: Adaptive Options
Custom grading scales for adaptive assessments include:
Option | Behavior/Use Case |
Average of Sections |
All section scores are averaged. Good when sections are equally weighted. |
Highest Section |
The student’s highest section score becomes the overall grade. Useful for letting students focus on one section. |
Rounded Average |
Like average, but with rounding (explain rounding rules). |
Sum of Sections |
Like average, but with rounding (explain rounding rules). |
Time Accommodations
The Overrides Configuration provides time scaling options for adaptive assessments.
Figure 2: Time Accommodations
Since sections can have different timing, you can select:
- Time and a Half (150%)
- Double Time (200%)
- Custom – Specify a unique time scale.
- Unlimited
If no accommodation is selected, the total time will be the sum of the section time limits.
