Metrics - Assessment Dashboard

*The Genesis Metrics module is currently in development and running in BETA for select districts.* 

Genesis Metrics provides an early warning system that will empower school staff to quickly identify students who may be at risk of dropping out or not progressing to the next level of schooling. All Metrics widgets allow users to click directly into charts and drill-down to view the individual students included in each category.

Assessments Dashboard

The Assessments Dashboard provides a centralized view of NJSLA test scores based on loaded assessment data. Custom Assessments will also be added to the Assessment Dashboard. Users can filter Assessment data by:

• Class Of
• Score Setup (Exam type)
• Active Student status

Advanced Filters

• The latest Metrics build now includes filtering by Class Of, Grade, Race, Gender, 504, F/R, Gifted, ML, Spec Ed, Student List, Active, SCED Subject + Teacher + Course.
  • SCED Subject + Teacher + Course are connected to one another, selecting a subject will only display teachers in that subject. Selected teachers will only display courses that they teach.

  • SCED Subject + Teacher + Course is a special filter that allows you to filter out students who have been in a specific sced subject, had a certain teacher, or took a certain course section. By Selecting a SCED subject the teacher filter will only show teachers who teach that subject, for example Algebra 1 will only show Algebra 1 teachers. Additionally, the Course filter will then only show courses for those teachers for all school years. You can then select those courses by course code, teacher id, school year, and/or the school they were taught in. 

  
  

If multiple Class Of and Exams are selected, the charts will display with each class of being a column, allowing you to compare exams results from different Class Of categories, at a glance. 

Assessment Widget - Panels

Grades Tab

The course grades are displayed on the left Y axis and the blue column, while assessment scores are on the right Y axis and the red column. 
• Users can specify the following to view the course & exam data: 
  • Class Of
  • Assessments
  • SCED Subject

Performance Tab

• Added Performance Chart to display assessment performance for either Math or ELA NJSLA exam scores.
  • Can filter these by assessment year in addition to the default filters
  • Supports the groupings listed above.
  • Also displays the calculated averages for the NJSLA on the right side, comparing for example the average ALG01 score for the District vs. the average ALG01 for the State. These are stored by school year and go back to 2021-22.

Data Range Sets

Assessment widget panels categorize scores into predefined ranges, which can be customized under Metrics > Setup > Data Range Sets > Assessment Ranges. 

Assessment Score Setup

Proper setup of the Assessment Dashboard requires mapping Genesis Exams to NJSLA exams for accurate reporting. Assessment mapping can be configured under Metrics > Setup > Assessment Scores.

• Ability to flag score setups to be used in Tiers as rules, by default NJSLA setups that are auto generated will automatically be flagged as able to be used in tiers
• If NJSLA scores are detected during startup, the scores are automatically loaded into metrics if they can be properly detected
