To view your MESHA Science report, open the assessment and click View report in the Reporting section. Your results show up as soon as students submit, so you can start spotting trends and learning gaps straight away.
Each MESHA assessment comes with two reports:
- an in-app report, which you can explore online and which suggests where students should focus next; and
- a full report you can download as an Excel spreadsheet, for deeper analysis with your school.
Open your report
- Log in to Edrolo and click Assessments in the left-hand menu.
- Find your MESHA Science assessment and click View assessment.
- In the Reporting section, choose the report you need:
- Click View report to open the in-app report.
- Click Download full report to download the Excel spreadsheet.
- Click a class button, such as View SCICLASSA, to jump straight to that class's results.
When you're ready for students to see their own results, click Release student marks.
Adjust your comparison
At the top right of the in-app report you'll see two settings:
- Cohort to compare against: choose All schools to compare with every school that sat this MESHA assessment, or Similar schools to compare with schools like yours (this will only be available if a quintile of Schools within your ICSEA band are available for comparison).
- Filter by: choose All classes or a single class.
Throughout the report, differences are shown in percentage points (pp). For example, +3pp means your students scored 3 percentage points higher than the comparison group.
What's in the in-app report?
The in-app report has five tabs. Click a tab name to switch between them.
Overview
Overview gives you a quick summary of the assessment:
- Assessment wins: features highlights such as how many students beat the cohort average, your top question, and questions mastered school-wide.
- How each class performed: how many students in each class sat below, in line with or above the cohort.
- Which strands need more attention: your school's average for each Science strand (Biological, Chemical, Earth and space, Physical sciences, and Science inquiry) compared with the cohort.
- Opportunities: actionable steps that teachers can take to address specific misconceptions or intervene with teaching resources.
Learning Gaps
Learning gaps breaks down how students went on each question. Pick a question from the list on the left to see:
- your class, school and all schools accuracy for that question;
- the question itself and its curriculum strand; and
- which option each student chose, and the misconception behind each wrong answer.
A wrong answer is flagged as a learning gap when at least 3 students chose it. It's labelled Pervasive if more than 50% of students chose it, Common if more than 30% did, or Frequent if more than 20% did.
You can filter questions by strand, using the dropdown box in the All questions section.
Learning gaps will always be specific to a class, with the Filter by dropdown in the top-right always defaulting to the first class in the list, unless otherwise specified.
When a learning gap is found, Edrolo automatically creates a follow-up task that you can send to students. This includes content specifically addressing this learning gap. Click here to learn more.
Student gap to growth
Student gap to growth compares each student's score with the cohort average. Green bars show students above the cohort, grey bars show students within 3pp, and red bars show students below.
Student engagement
Student engagement confirms which students completed the assessment, their progress status and their time elapsed (if completed online).
Results grid
Results grid shows every student's answer to every question in one table (sometimes called a Guttman chart). Correct answers are green and incorrect answers are red. The top rows show the all schools, school and class averages for each question.
Click a column heading to sort by student, marks or score. You can also click on any question to navigate to the Learning gaps page for that question.
What's in the full report spreadsheet?
Click Download full report to get an Excel spreadsheet with four sheets:
- Student report: each student's performance compared with the MESHA cohort, plus a grid of every student's answers.
- Class report: each class's performance side by side, compared with the MESHA cohort.
- Learning gaps report: how students went on each question, and the most common learning gaps at your school.
- Charts: visual summaries of key results.
