ASSESSMENT TECHNOLOGY, INCORPORATED A Guide for Galileo K-12 Online School Performance Dashboard: Risk Level Summary PURPOSE This report shows progress reflected in performance on a series of benchmark tests that have been placed on a common scale. Since the tests have been placed on a common scale, the scores can be directly compared and an estimate can be generated related to each student s risk of not meeting the standards on the next state standardized assessment. This risk level is based on where his or her Development Level (DL) score falls relative to the Meets cut score on each ATI benchmark assessment taken. The cut scores on the benchmark assessments are set to correspond to the cut score on the state standardized test. ACCESS Risk Level Summary Data may be easily accessed from the School Performance Dashboard page s Risk Level Summary widget. Please note, risk level data may also be analyzed by running the Aggregate Multitest with Risk Levels report.
