 Hi, this is Shannon Gilman and I'm going to show you how to use progress learning for student engagement and student differentiation. Okay, so in order to get into progress learning what was formally known as USA test prep, you're going to go to the Ori County website and you're going to go to the student learning commons and log into Clever just like you would any other thing. Now I already have progress learning like so it pops up right at the top but if you don't on the district page you're going to scroll all the way down almost to the very very bottom where it says test prep and you're going to come over here to progress learning. Strongly suggest that you hit that little like button so it automatically pops up in your favorites at the top and you can also set it to your teacher page. So if I click on this and students go to my page when they log in they can easily get to the things that they need for my class specifically. So once you get through Clever and you find progress learning you simply click on it and it will automatically log you in. Now once you're logged in the very first thing you're going to need to do is to set up your classes. So you'll see that my first two classes have already been set up but my third class still needs to be set up. So super super simple to set up your class there's really only one thing that's missing you click into it and you'll see that it says your class is pending please complete the sections marked below. This section is marked so I'm going to click on the subjects and you'll see that there's no subject found so what you have to do is add the subject that you need for that class specifically. So I am currently assigned to high school so I don't have access to any of the middle school ones except for a couple so I'm going to scroll down to the high school and since my class is biology I'm going to scroll all the way down to the science and I'm going to find the biology. I'm going to choose both the old biology standards and the new ones that we are getting for next year because both of them have some really good questions that I can choose from. Once I have those subjects I'm going to click okay and you'll see now that it has this and if I go back to my class management or you can click the home button either one you'll see that this third class no longer has that pending setup next to it and your class is good to go so that's step one and step two once your classes have been set up now you can start building assignments building assessments and differentiating with your classrooms so we're going to start with building a simple assignment so right here at the home screen at the top you'll see that there's one called assignment builder so I'm going to click on assignment builder and I'm just going to name my first assignment practice 23 and I'm going to choose the subject I want my subjects that I added to the class are going to be the first two that pop up but you actually have access to everything that you are currently assigned to so again I'm high school so I have access to all the high school content so I'm going to click on the standard that I want and then you'll see when you come down here that you have lots of options so if you were a former user of USA test prep you still have the option to build assignments with multiple things within it so I can use assessments that I have pre-built so I have like a biology pre-assessment I also have access to all of the assessments that have been built by either previous biology teachers that shared within USA test prep or any of the ones that were created during curriculum work in the summer that were in USA test prep those were also imported into progress learning so I can choose any of those if I want them you can have it generate its own test you can make it a practice assessment you can choose how long I'm going to save that for when I do build assessments so I'm going to just do a practice assignment so I'm going to go to practice questions and I'm going to choose my standard or what they call domains and then you can choose multiple if you want but I'm just going to stick to one for now and once you've chosen your standard underneath that you'll get all of the indicators for each one so we're currently working on biomolecules so I'm going to choose biomolecules and enzymes now in this case it would assign two separate 10 question sets to my students which I'm okay with but you can also combine them into a single activity so it takes those two and puts them into one single question set and makes it only 10 questions total so it gives them that if you choose all right you can also add video lessons so if you're familiar with USA test prep these are very similar they're the same ones that were in that so you choose again your domain and then your standard and the videos that were there still pop up so I'm going to assign them the carbs one and lipids you also have options for constructed response again it's exactly what it sounds like students would actually type a response I'll show you one as well and you can actually click and see exactly what that assignment would look like so you can read the question say okay yes I would like to include that one or I don't know if I like that one let me read what this one says pick one that you like when you check it it automatically adds it to the assignment and now I have all the parts that I want so I'm going to click save and continue and then here's where you have the chance to assign it to a class now if you don't want to assign it to a class yet you can choose this option right here creating an assignment without assigning to a class or you can assign it to one or multiple classes the other great thing that this is different from USA test prep that they added there was always a eliminate one option choice in USA test prep but you used to have to create its own assignment now you can click plus on your class and choose which students you want to assign to so if I don't want to assign it to someone they're at sore and they don't need to assign to them right now so it doesn't include in my grade book I can choose them off I can also for any of my students who have IEPs, ILPs, 504s that for whatever reason might call for you to eliminate one answer choice or I just know these students might do better if I get rid of one for them you can individually select and no other students know that they only have three options versus the four options so I click save and continue and then you can add notes as you choose so you can put no note I can attach a text note I can also do text speech I can make a video and embed that for my kids if I'm going to be absent telling them what they need to accomplish you can do any of those things that's kind of different from what USA test prep had and then save and continue and then you have your final settings so again you have a start date you have a due date you can add to the school bank so if you're working with a team and you created the assignment and you want to share it with your teammates you can easily click this and anybody who's assigned to your school can also see that in their assignment center which I'll show you once I finish and then here you can set your settings this is also super similar to what USA test prep had so you can change it to unlimited attempts or however many you want if you choose to have a minimum score requirement it will automatically swap the first one to unlimited so you can choose however you want to set that if you choose a constructed response you have to give it a point value again you can give them a maximum you can limit their characters however much and then you can reorganize how you want the assignments to be and you can make it so that they have to complete the activities in a specific order or if you leave that off then they can do any of the activities at their leisure in whatever order they want once you have everything set to the settings that you want you simply click save assignment it'll automatically bring you back to your assignment bank under the assessment and assignment center so under your assignment bank you can see that this is the one I just created right here the practice 23 it is shared because I allowed it to be shared with my colleagues and up here you have kind of like what each one is so this is a group assignment and I can tell it's a group because it has that little plus you can click on it and it'll show you that it has all of those things you can preview them at any time and then when students complete it it'll go to your grade book so I go back to my classes class management and I click on my grade book you'll now see that those students have that practice 23 assignment and when they due date passes it should automatically change to a zero so that's the second part of creating in okay so now that we have built our assignments now we're going to go back home and we're going to work on building an assessment an assessment is different than assignment because assignment is typically more of practice and you can build those multiple pieces in assessment builder is where you can create your own assessments that you can assign to students so under assessment builder the first thing you're going to do under settings is you're going to do the same thing you're going to create an assessment name so I'm going to put practice test and then same thing you're going to add your subject and then you can choose what you would like to do do you want to share that assessment do you have a team you want to work with or not do you want to allow the students to view those results so similar if you use USA test prep where you could they could just see their score but they couldn't see any of the questions view the questions only or view questions and answers you can choose to display questions in a random order um and allow for calculator or not since our EOC has a calculator I always embed that and I just do the scientific calculator and leave it as that once you have those set up then you click save and continue and it automatically brings you to content and you can do two different things you can show that I will select the questions in which case you simply select the domain that you want or what I call standard then the indicator and then you can change it to all questions the question type you can pick anything that you would like and then you can go through each one preview the type of question that you want see if it's a question that you would want to include so like this is a technology enhanced question which is great if you have like an EOC or you have a pass test at the end um how you can do drag and drops which is very common in those tests nowadays so you can include those I personally like to do progress learning will select the questions because you can now actually change what you want it to select so question show we chose them for all domains according to the percentage in the pie chart so you can choose it based on what you want and you can make it however I'm going to do small and then I'm going to click save and preview now this is where you can change some things and this is different if you used USA test prep before and allowed it to choose your questions for you so now that I'm here you can see that it chose questions based on different things so that is a little bit different because I did want it to be simply I just chose EOC so when I go back and I choose this here's the only issue with this one is that it doesn't allow me to choose a specific set of indicators so that is a little different so if you want to choose specifically the questions then you're going to want to choose this one instead and choose those specifically if you want something that kind of has a little bit of everything then you want to do it the other way so this does give you an option to do it that way but you can really choose either one whichever one works for you so I'm going to go ahead and go this way just so you can see some other options you have here this is where you can change some things so like there's domain six standard 17 standards you can group it by however you want so it'll like change it based on the standard so all the cells as a system at the top energy transfer heredity ecosystem evolution but now I can look at the question view it what it looks like as a student and if I don't like the question I can replace it so this is actually how I built my pre-test that I did I took it so it took a little bit from everything and then I went through and I looked at the questions and I was like okay I like that in that question that one's good if you don't like the question you can now click replace and I'll give you five different options that you can replace it with instead previewing each one and go oh I like this one better and you'll see that some of them are simple multiple choice and some of them are select all that apply and so you can choose to select that question and if you don't like any of those you can refresh the list and it gives you all new sets of questions and if you're like maybe I did like the first one better you can go to this x and you have that so I'm going to select save and you can do that for all of them you can view every question that was chosen and replace anything that you want so I'm going to go ahead and click save assessment and since I didn't click assign it's automatically going to take me to a assessment bank which again has everything that either you had from USA test prep pulled over or that the district pulled over as well so these ones were all ones that were created before I only created these two these were ones that were already in here when I logged in so these are all ones that have been created by the district at some point so now if I wanted to assign this you can do it two ways you can click here assign or you can actually click into it and assign from there but the easiest way is just to assign here you can always go back and edit it and you have the same options that you did with the assignment so you can click on any classes that you want you can show all the students you can click any off again you can choose which students you want to eliminate one answer choice from saving continue add notes or no notes make your assignment dates and then again you can change your number of assignments if you want a minimum score and then save assignment once that's been saved again if I go now to my my assignments I can see that my practice test has been assigned to all my students my practice assignment has been assigned to all my students and if I went to my classes and I clicked on my grade book you would see that now that practice test is also in there and I can specifically click on that and it will bring me to the whole test and I can start looking at results as students take it okay so after you've built your assessment the last thing that we are going to do is start learning how to differentiate instruction using those resources so from here we're going to go back to the home screen and you've got something where you can look at progress reports so I'm going to go right here to you can choose any of your class but I'm going to choose my first class and I'm going to click on progress report so when you click on progress report you're going to see that it's going to choose your class and it's going to automatically select a standard I'm going to select the EOC since that's still the one that we're currently using and then once you select all the options you can do it for all your classes you can do it for one class so I'm going to specifically do my first class and then anything that's been taken and then you click run report if you used USA test prep previously this was called the green dot challenge they have a green dot challenge as well super similar basically that was something that has been imported now since these classes were just set up I don't have a lot of data in fact I just used an example dataset of a student giving them a pretend assessment so you could see what things are but here I can see the class dot rank and I can see that in this case anything that's gray we haven't learned about yet they haven't had any assignments on they haven't taken any data from and that's okay so I know that this student is kind of there on interpreting data um they didn't hardly answer they had one question or one question here but there's not enough data for them to actually give them a dot yet um since they didn't get any question correct so it's going to tell me that they have a red there were two that they answered here so they gave them a red three here they answered two questions correctly here green so you can kind of see this is over the classroom you can also go to student rank and you'd be able to see where all of your students are in regards to any assessment or assignments that you've given them we'll start taking into account these things so right now again mine is relatively empty because my students have my classes just reset so I don't have a lot of data yet but you can see where they have strong points and where they have not so strong points once you have actually given students an assessment or an assignment you can assign them remediation and so what you'll do is glow go back to your class management center and if you look at the grade book so I just had a student complete a practice test just so that I could show some data so if I click on their results it'll take me to where they're at so I can see everything that they have completed where they're at I can look at things like this I can look at what they missed I can do all of those things I can also go specifically to the practice test itself and within the practice test you can see where things are scored and now now that I have data I can actually click on assign remediation so this is something similar that USA test prep added a few years ago where you could actually assign remediation you can do one week one week area two week areas or three um you can also it will not assign it to any students who scored less than an 80 so any students who scored over an 80 percent for all the assignments will not get remediation so you're not assigning random things to students who don't need it which I think is great so I'm going to click two week areas so let's say I gave our test on Wednesday we have our common assessment coming up so we're doing some remediation and make sure that we are good I'm going to go here I'm going to choose what days I want to assign it when do I want the due date to be by and then you select all the students who you need you can select any or you can select all again it will automatically tell students who scored 80 it will not give you an option to assign it and then you simply click assign it'll pop up in that student's center so I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to click on a student for you so you guys can see what it would look like on their end so this is kind of what they would see when they log in so they would see their score the tokens that they earned if they earned any and some additional practice that they can do for each thing that they didn't so here this is what it assigned them some videos and questions for conducting investigations they can see a breakdown of everything and they also have a lot of other things that they can do as well so I'm going to show you one last thing that students themselves can do after I show you I'm going to go back to the class center so that you can see if I go to my gradebook it's got that practice test they would also see the remediation so I'm going to go back to my class and I'm going to click on the class and this is where you can log in and see what the students look like so I'm going to log in as a student and you'll see that this is what theirs looks like so here she already took that practice test but now that she's completed the practice test and I assigned her remediation these are the two remediations that she has to take in order to get whatever maybe you're giving them points back on that test or however you choose to do that that would be a great way that you could bump students up because they completed their remediation so just so you can kind of see what theirs looks like when you take give them an assessment of any kind on old USA test prep with the assessments it used to be one long page that they would go in and click through now whether you're doing an assignment or you're doing an assessment the questions look like this so it's one question at a time you can have it read to them if you need it to so the oral accommodation is built right in for you another way that you can differentiate for students they have all these different options of things you can do calculator built in response masking so getting rid of answers that they're like I know that one's wrong and I know that one's wrong so all of these are built in features they can have sticky notes they can literally draw on top of their questions if they so choose they can erase all that kind of stuff so they have lots of features built in now that were not necessarily there before and they only get one question at a time the only thing that they cannot do is go back so once they've answered the question they cannot go back to the question but it will make them answer it so they're working on that feature it has been given to them so when they're doing those remediations if they miss it right then in there it's going to tell you that they missed it and then it's going to make them try and answer it again so it's like okay no that one's not correct here's an explanation so it the remediation actually walks them through what they did wrong the other thing that they can see they can see all of their graded work what they've gotten etc they also get a study plan so if they have more than one class they can look at the multiple class but they can go here and they can actually see their own progress report which shows them their own dots and they can work on anything at any time so this is another way that your students can you can remediate for your students themselves based on what they've already completed so so we are going to go back to that study plan they can look at their dot rank they can actually also see it here so when they click on this right here they can see where they're at on any of them if they've completed anything so like here their dot rank she's a 50 in photosynthesis so there's videos that she can watch there's questions that she can complete and it'll show the practice progress and how that can increase their percent and they can do these multiple times until they bring their dot rank up and as they do practice assignments for you and other things it'll increase their dot rank so this shows it right here they can click on okay I want to do the questions pull that up it'll say begin and then they can start working on those so there's lots of ways that you can differentiate for students they can have lots of different things and at any time you can go back through I can go to assignments she can see so their view is very very easy I actually like this view better than I did on USA test prep and you can message students if they're working while you're on they can message you um you can message them it you do have to both be on but there's a lot of things you can do so I'm going to return to my account all the things you need you have your school center the class center the assessment assignment center it's where everything is home everything's at the top and linked right here with your classes so there's lots of things you can do you also have a calendar lots of reports you can get those reports here the progress report the grade book this one is for elementary so you shouldn't need to worry too much about them you can see how much time kids are spending you can get assessment results reports basically everything you need and then there is that USA test prep fall if you need to go back to anything they are pretty good about responding as well so if you ever have questions feel free to email them or go to that help center and request some things or you can also ask your tech team and we can put in requests as well thanks for watching don't forget to like and subscribe
