Reports
Once you have a sufficient quantity of test data for one or more students, you can create a report to view their test results. Test data is gathered whenever students complete tests.
The type of test completed will define the types of reports available for you to create. For example, some tests will enable you to view results by class or group, whilst others will focus on the outcomes for an individual student.
If students have taken tests using more than one GL product, you may be able to create combination reports which will enable you to compare data across different tests, or to compare progress with a previous test. A guide to available combination reports can be found in the Downloads section.
Reports can take 15-30 minutes to fully populate, sometimes more depending on traffic level on the platform.
Creating Reports
All the templates required to create reports are included in Testwise. See Create a New Report for more information on the report creation process.
Types of Reports
Testwise is continually being improved to provide schools with analysis and reporting to support teaching and learning. Each assessment has a range of reports which are available to view and filter on screen and download. These include:
- Interactive reports within Testwise *New*
- Printable analysis (PDF)
- Excel data output
Excel
This collates your results in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This spreadsheet can then be saved locally, edited, formatted and have any relevant local macros applied to it. Please note that Excel downloads do not include narratives – they are records of scores and rankings.
Written Reports
Depending upon which type of Report you choose, your reports may be in PDF format or available as online reports. GL is in the process of upgrading PDF reports to appear in the improved online format. Both these Report types have graphics and narrative explanations of the results and can be generated for individual students, or student groups.
Availability of reports
You will only be able to create the reports associated with the services you have purchased. Most reports are included in the cost of your services, however, some reports are charged for separately. Any reports that do include a charge are clearly marked, so that you can differentiate them from the reports which are included in your subscription.
