- On the Home page, select Star CBM Reading, Star CBM Lectura, or Star CBM Math; then, select Data Insights from the menu that opens.
- On the Renaissance Next teacher page, select Reports on the left side of the page; then, select Data Insights under Star CBM.
- On the Home page, select Reports; then, select Star CBM Data Insights.
- On the Home page, select Star CBM Reading, Star CBM Lectura, or Star CBM Math; then, select Data Insights from the menu that opens.
- Then, for the Reading - English, Reading - Spanish, or Math % Moving Up tile, select Explore the data.
Note: You can choose to see Data Insights pages in either English or Spanish using the language links at the top of the page. - Use the drop-down lists to choose the data you want to see and the screening windows that you want to include. Then, select Update. (Note that the data shown will only include students who have tested in both screening windows.)
- Select the number of students in a specific category to see detailed information for those students. You can select students in a specific category in the starting screening window or students who transitioned to a specific category in the ending screening window.
Star CBM Reading and Math screening measures have three benchmark categories available: At/Above Benchmark (green), On Watch (blue), and Intervention (red); Rapid Automatic Naming measures have two categories: At/Above Benchmark (green) and At Risk (red). Scores within the At/Above Benchmark category are considered proficient. For detailed information about the scores that fall into each benchmark category for different measures and grades, see Star CBM Score and Benchmark Tables.
Star CBM Lectura screening measures have two benchmark categories available: Satisfactory/Optimal (green) and Alert (red). Scores within the Satisfactory/Optimal category are considered proficient. For detailed information about the scores that fall into each benchmark category for different measures and grades, see Star CBM Lectura Score and Benchmark Tables.
Using the Table
The table lists the students in the group that you selected on the Benchmark Transitions page - the heading above the table will remind you which students you've chosen to see.
For each student and screening window, the table includes the following:
- the student's grade level (GL) at the time the assessment was administered
- the student's scores, including:
- Correct Per Minute score (or percent correct for Encoding) with a circle showing the benchmark category
- Percentile Rank score
- the measure that the student was tested on (Measure names are abbreviated; see the the tip below for more information about the measures with benchmarks available and their abbreviations.)
What are the screening windows?
Each year, Star CBM includes three screening windows, whose dates cannot be changed:
- Fall Starts on the school year start date or August 1 (whichever is earlier) and runs through November 30.
- Winter is from December 1 through March 31.
- Spring begins April 1 and runs through the end of the school year or July 31.
Which measures have benchmarks for each grade, and what are their abbreviations?
The measures that have benchmarks available for students are based on the students' grade; see the table below.
