Student Assessment Layout #

When you click the Students button on the Skills Survey home page, you’ll navigate to Student Assessments.

This layout displays all students in the selected class, where you can add individual student assessments and access student reports. Submitted assessments are color-coded and can be selected for viewing or printing at any time.

Referring to the image below as an example, Olivia Carter’s teacher has two completed assessments: one on 10/29/24 and another on 10/30/24.

Selecting the blue Add Assessment button will open a new Survey for a student. The next section covers the survey functionality in detail.

Student Reports #

In the Student Assessment section, there are three report options: Table Report, Progress Report, and Lesson Recommendations. For more details on each report, see the Class Reports section above.

Survey Layout #

The assessor, typically a teacher, school counselor, or social worker, requires about four weeks of observation to make an assessment. Assessments are absolute, not comparative, and scores are stored online for reporting purposes. The survey includes 25 sub-competency statements that can be quickly assessed, saved, submitted, deleted, shared, or printed.

The QuaverReady Skills Survey assesses five core social and emotional competencies:

• Self-Awareness
• Self-Management
• Social Awareness
• Relationship Skills
• Responsible Decision-Making

At the top, you’ll find identifying information for the student being assessed, including their first and last name, the educator or assessor’s name, date, class, school, and district.

Read each competency and select a bubble from Strongly Disagree to Strongly Agree for each statement. On the far right of each statement is an information icon. The information icon provides a detailed rubric to assist you in assessing the statement, “Student can communicate their emotions.” It offers clear descriptors for each response option, from Strongly Disagree to Strongly Agree, outlining specific behaviors and abilities associated with each rating level. This ensures a consistent and objective evaluation of a student’s emotional communication skills, allowing you to make informed assessments that guide targeted support and intervention.

Survey Actions #

At the bottom of all assessments are five options, which we will cover below.

Save: If you start a new survey and leave it incomplete, it will automatically save and be marked as “Incomplete” on the Student Assessment screen. You also have the option to save a survey manually.

Submit: Submitting your survey will calculate a score based on your selections for the core competency statements. On the Student Assessment screen, you will see a dated, color-coded square representing a submitted survey. After submitting a survey, the only available option is to print.

Delete: This action will permanently remove the survey and will not archive it. Make sure you wish to delete before selecting this option.

Share: The share feature supports collaboration among educators, counselors, and social workers involved in a student’s learning. By allowing multiple professionals to access and contribute to assessing a student, this feature fosters a holistic understanding of the student’s needs, particularly for those requiring Tier 2 or Tier 3 interventions.

When accessing the survey link, the other assessor will be required to enter their first and last name, then complete and submit their assessment of the student’s core competencies. After sharing the link, the status of the survey will show as “Shared.”

Surveys can be printed at any time, whether they are complete or incomplete.
