How to interpret the ADAM K-7 Detail report
  
Answer

ADAM K-7 has five strands covering Numbers & Operations, Measurement, Data Analysis, Geometry, and Algebraic Thinking. The five strands are further broken down into 44 sub-tests, which in turn are broken into individual constructs. Grade-equivalent scores and raw scores are provided for each student on each sub-test. There are three substantive reports currently available for ADAM K-7: Summary, Detailed, and Standards.

Interpreting the ADAM Detail report

On the top right of the report, you will find the student information for the report. 

  • Report Run - The date you ran this report.
  • Last Score Improvement - This refers to the date when the Active Pulse score was updated.  This is not necessarily the date of the last assessment.  For more information about Active Pulse - Click Here. 
  • Age & Grade - This is the age and grade of the student when the last ADAM K-7 assessment was completed.

Summary of Scores - Each strand is broken into score ranges by grade and raw score.

  • Underlined Green range - grade-range level for score of strands that are at or above grade level
  • Underlined Red range - grade-range level for score of strands that are below grade level
  • Raw Scores - raw score total based on the results for each strand
  • Grade Level - grade-level score for each strand

 

When viewing the results of each sub-test and individual construct, read the scores from top to bottom.  Use the legend to help interpret data.

  1. A check mark in this box indicates that this particular sub-test was mastered or "on-grade" level.  An "X" indicates that this particular sub-test's results were below grade level.
  2. This section gives you the construct's raw score and grade-level score and indicates whether the construct was or was not tested.  You read this section from top to bottom.  If a student was tested on an individual construct, there will be a "+" or "-."  The "+" indicates that the student mastered the construct.  The "-" indicates that the student did not master that construct.  "NT" means that the student was not tested.  In this example, the first construct given to this student was "Cardinal & Ordinal Numbers."  The student mastered five constructs and then did not master the construct "Comma & Place Holder."  Since the last mastered construct was "Counting (By Hundreds and Thousands)," this is considered the mastery level for this sub-test and is highlighted in green.
  3. The double arrow represents the skill to teach first in each sub-test. If the double arrow is red, this indicates priority (below grade level).
  4. The single arrow represents the next skill(s) to teach in each sub-test. If the single arrow is red, this indicates below grade level.
  5. This is the instructional goal for this construct.

This is an example of a "below grade sub-test."

When you bring additional fields into a conversion, Quickbase often finds inconsistencies. For example, say you're converting your Companies column into its own table. One company, Acme Corporation, has offices in New York, Dallas and Portland. So, when you add the City column to the conversion, Quickbase finds three different locations for Acme. A single value in the column you're converting can only match one value in any additional field. Quickbase needs you to clean up the extra cities before it can create your new table. To do so, you have one of two choices:

  • If you want to create three separate Acme records (Acme-New York, Acme-Dallas and Acme-Portland) click the Conform link at the top of the column.
  • If the dissimilar entries are mistakes (say Acme only has one office in New York and the other locations are data-entry errors) go back into your table and correct the inconsistenciesin this case, changing all locations to New York. Then try the conversion again.
