What is Insight Assessment? #
Insight Assessment provides a centralized location for collecting, reviewing, and analyzing assessment data to support student success, educator development, and school-wide improvement.
To utilize the Insight Assessment tool, you must set up classes and student accounts to assess your students. You can add classes within Insight Assessment, or see our Students and Classes help page to manage your classes there!
The application includes three assessment categories: Student Assessments, Educator Assessments, and School-wide Assessments. Each category offers tools to gather meaningful information, identify strengths and areas for growth, monitor progress, and make informed decisions that support teaching, learning, and school improvement.
How to Find Insight Assessment #
From your District Admin dashboard, select Insight Assessment to open the Insight Assessment home page.
Note: Available features and student information may vary based on account permissions.
Assessment Types #
Assessments are organized into three categories based on what is being evaluated. The assessments available within each category may vary depending on your license and account permissions. These are the assessments available to educators. Note that assessments and content are filtered by curriculums, so switching curriculums reloads the app with a different set of assessments.
