Container Tools
Depending on which container you are in, several different additional tools are available. At the top right of each container, five options apply to the entire container. Hovering in the container top bar will reveal all five icons.
NOTE: Any changes you make to containers (sizes, order, which are displaying, etc.) will be restored to defaults once you navigate away from the dashboard. You cannot “break” or ruin anything on the dashboards. You are in a View Only mode, so feel free to try different buttons and tools to see what they do.
The following is a brief description of each of those tools.

Further Options |
This dropdown will give you various options based on your container. |
Action Gear Dropdown Menu
|
Show Container Configuration allows the user to resize the container and change the display. |
|
|
Split Screen allows the user to display two tabs side by side. Make selections using the blue radio buttons (Left, Right) and click OK. The display then switches to a split view showing two collections side by side. |
|
|
Print All allows the user to “print” the container by creating a PDF report with the displayed data. Choose options by clicking the boxes to the left of the descriptors. |
Screen View Actions And Options
Each tab within a container has a light gray gear icon at the top right, which will also provide access to several other tools, depending on the data displayed.
You may see:
|
Data Settings: This tool allows you to select which specific data you want to view and for which student group. A pop-out will take you through the steps, and after making selections, a new tab will open in this container to display the data. |
|
|
Compare: This tool allows you to choose the second group of students on the same assessment to be displayed alongside the current group in a split-screen format to “compare” the two data sets. |
|
|
Download: Some tabs allow you to download the displayed data. Here, we see options to download as a chart, as a data table, as a report, or as a validation workbook. NOTE: Validation workbooks have several tabs; look at all tabs when reviewing data. |
|
|
Related Views: This allows you to quickly and easily display closely related data. Are you looking at individual overall assessment scores? Click on “Stranded View” (hovering will give you the full title of the related view), and a new tab will appear with the same list of students and assessments, with available strand data displayed. |
|
|
Zoom: Zoom in or out to resize the tab you are viewing. |
Chart Actuibs And Options
Hovering on the chart will show an additional Action Gear with Chart Action and Options. The user can quickly decide how the data being viewed is displayed.
