View Dashboard
You can view information related to your testing administration within the dashboard on your Home page. The dashboard contains the Testing Information section with widgets that track students, tests, and tests sessions. When applicable, the Home page dashboard displays the Accommodations and/or Testing Exceptions sections. You can monitor or take action on this data when necessary.
Depending on the amount of data received and current traffic from all Pearson Access customers, dashboard updates may take time to process within the system. Refresh the dashboard until your data syncs before attempting to perform further action. You can see the date and time the Pretesting widget was last updated next to the Testing Information header.
Each widget on the Home page dashboard contains links to more detailed information, depending on your role.
For example, you can click the number of Registered students to see the Districts to which they belong. Then, click the number of schools in that district to see its Schools. Then, click the number of students in that school to see student details.
You can also export the detailed information to a CSV file as shown in the example below:
- Click Export to CSV above any list when clicking through details from a widget.
- Open the exported file to view and format details.
Testing Information Widgets
Widgets retain completed test counts for students unenrolled from an organization; however, you cannot access the student's profile page, or his or her reports after unenrollment.
Enter search criteria to locate and select an Administration, then select Subject and Grade above the Testing Information section to view associated information within each Home page dashboard widget. Click the tabs below to learn more about each widget.
The system marks a student as registered when they exist in the system and are assigned to an online test. The registered student count can contain multiple registrations for a single student, as it reflects test registrations within the system. Not Registered students exist in the system, but have not yet been assigned a test. You can see the date and time the Registered widget was last updated next to the Testing Information header above the widgets.
The Not Registered count includes test attempts marked Void. The Registered count includes students with the Not Tested status.
The Registered widget includes test attempts marked Do Not Report (DNR). See Student Test Statuses for more details.
