Use this report to learn how well your students are meeting your usage and achievement goals for Reading Assistant Plus by checking student performance at the selection level; that is, how well the students performed in the reading selections as a whole. Students who consistently use the Reading Assistant Plus software and progress through content while maintaining a high level of performance typically gain the most benefit from the component.
For a detailed breakdown of student performance at the task/skill level, see the student level reports for Reading Assistant Plus.
This chart provides a summary of how well your students are meeting usage and performance expectations. The selection performance metrics—Reading Level High Score and Developing or Above—measure actual achievement. The component usage information—minutes per week and selections per week—allows you to quickly measure implementation for the group.
Students. The number of students who used the component within the selected date range. These are the students included in the report.
Reading Level High Score. The average Reading Level High Score for the students. Students who have not mastered any selections are not included in this calculation. If none of the students have earned a Reading Level High Score, this field shows N/A. To learn more see Reading Level High Score.
Developing or Above. The percentage of selections completed at a performance level of developing or proficient. mySciLEARN uses colors to rate this percentage as excellent (green), good (blue), or needs improvement (red). To learn more see Developing or Above. Note that the software calculates this percentage using the performance levels from all completed selections, rather than averaging the Developing or Above scores that appear in the Averages by Student table (at the bottom of this report).
Minutes per Week. The average number of minutes per week the students spent using the component, including time spent repeating selections and selections that are still in progress. Students who spend the expected amount of time using the software each week—as prescribed by either the component schedule or by your own classroom schedule—are more likely to improve their performance and achieve success.
Selections Completed per Week. The average number of selections per week completed by the students. Students who consistently complete content each week have a greater chance of improving their performance and achieving success. To learn more see Completing selections.
When viewing a single group, this scatter plot graph provides an at-a-glance view of how well your students are performing in the component. Click the arrow next to the section title to expand the section and view the graph.
Note that because this graph presents results on the student level instead of the group level, it only appears when viewing a single group.
X-axis. Maps the student's average reading level—that is, the average reading level of the selections completed by the student.
Y-axis. Maps the student's performance—that is, the percentage of selections completed at a performance level of Developing or Above. To learn more see Developing or Above.
Each student who has completed at least one selection in the date range appears on the graph, represented by a small bubble. Students at the same average reading level and within five Developing or Above percentage points of each other are grouped together in the same bubble, which becomes larger as it includes more students. These groupings can help you quickly identify students at similar reading and performance levels. Each bubble is color coded to indicate the Developing or Above percentage for that corresponding reading level. Hold your cursor over a bubble to see the students represented by that bubble, along with the actual Developing or Above percentage.
When viewing a single group, this section of the report includes two graphs that illustrate group implementation and achievement trends. Click the arrow next to the section title to expand the section and view the graphs.
Note that when viewing all groups, the two graphs appear independently in the report instead of within the Group Usage & Group Performance and Reading Level Trends section.

WCPM (Actual/Goal). The student's performance in the Read and Record activity, which indicates the student's fluency skills. It shows an average of the highest words correct per minute (WCPM) scores from each of the completed selections over an average of the WCPM goals from each of the completed selections. The highest WCPM score could be from an additional reading of the selection. See the student's Selection report for details on the fluency goal for a selection. If the student has not completed a selection in the date range, this field shows N/A.
Comprehension. The student's performance in the Take the Quiz activity, which indicates the student's comprehension skills. It shows an average of the percent correct high scores from each of the completed selections. The percent correct high score could be from an additional retake of a quiz. The score is based on a scale of 0% to 100%. A score of 80% or higher indicates that the student has a good understanding of the skills worked on in the selections, while a score below 80% indicates that the student needs to work on these comprehension skills. See the student's Selection report for details on how the student's comprehension skills are measured within a selection. If the student has not completed a selection in the date range, this field shows N/A.
Tip: Because the WCPM and Comprehension scores measure individual skills rather than overall selection performance, their calculations may also include partially repeated selections. For example, if the student retakes the quiz in a selection but does not read the selection again, the results from that quiz will still be considered when calculating the Comprehension score.
