General Interpretation
Each plot in the graph on the front of this page shows the distribution of student scores for a content area tested, indicating both the skewness of
the distribution and the spread of the distribution. The key shown below the graph describes each part of the plot. The median, shown by a
diamond (u), is the score that divides the distribution into upper and lower halves. The dashes immediately above and below the diamond show
the percentile associated with the upper quartile (75th National Percentile) and the lower quartile (25th National Percentile). The dashes at the
ends of the solid line correspond to the bottom (10th National Percentile) and top (90th National Percentile) deciles. (A decile is one of the points
that divides a frequency distribution into 10 equal parts: 10% of the cases fall below the first decile, 20% below the second, and so on). The
dotted line portion of the plot completes the distribution, and shows the top score and the bottom score. A distribution of student scores is
skewed when the Median National Percentile is closer to either the top or bottom decile. On the plot, skewness is indicated by how close the
diamond (u) is to the dashes at the end of the solid line. The spread of student scores is indicated by the length of each plot.
If your group's performance for a given content area was similar to the national norm group, then 10% of the scores would be above the 90th
National Percentile, 25% of the scores would be above the 75th National Percentile, the Median National Percentile would be 50, 25% of the
scores would be below the 25th National Percentile, and 10% of the scores would be below the 10th National Percentile (see graph below).
Additional information about the interpretation of these scores and the use of test results can be found at DRC's website,

General Interpretation
This section of the Assessment Summary report presents your data in tabular form. Itis divided into three sections: Mean Scores and Standard Deviations, LocalPercentiles/Quartiles, and National Quarters.
The "Mean Scores and Standard Deviations" section provides some basicnorm-referenced information for your group. The following are the definitions of theterms used:
A Scale Score (SS) is the basis for other norm-referenced scores. The Scale Scoredescribes achievement on a continuum that in most cases spans the complete rangeof Kindergarten through Grade 12. Scale Scores range in value from approximately100 to 900. The Mean Scale Score (MSS) is obtained by adding the Scale Scores ofall students in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
A National Percentile (NP) is the percentage of students in a norm group whosescores fall below a given student's score. For example, a student that scored at the65th percentile in Reading indicates that the student scored at or above the score of65% of students nationwide in Reading. National Percentiles of 25-75 are consideredto be in the average range, and thus the student's achievement in the example abovecan be interpreted to be in the upper end of the average range. The Median NationalPercentile (MDNP) is the score that divides the distribution in half. If the MedianNational Percentile for your group was 78, for example, that would mean that half ofthe National Percentile scores were above 78 and the other half were below 78. TheMedian National Percentile for the nation is 50.
The Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) scale ranges from 1 to 99, and coincides withthe National Percentile scale at 1, 50, and 99. Normal Curve Equivalents have many ofthe same characteristics as percentile ranks, but have the additional advantage ofbeing based on an equal-interval scale. The difference between two successive scoreson the scale has the same meaning throughout the scale. This property allows formeaningful comparisons among different achievement tests. The Mean Normal CurveEquivalent (MNCE) is computed by adding the Normal Curve Equivalent scores of allstudents in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
A Grade Equivalent (GE) indicates the year and month of school for which a student'slevel of performance is typical. For example, a Grade Equivalent of 8.5 is interpreted tomean that the student's achievement is at a level that is typical of students who havecompleted the fifth month of Grade 8 (September being designated as .0, June as .9)Grade Equivalents that are within approximately two years of the student's actualgrade placement are generally considered an accurate description of the student'slevel of achievement. Use caution, however. A student in Grade 3 may attain a GradeEquivalent of 6.6. This does not mean that the student is capable of doing sixth-gradework, only that the student is scoring well above average for Grade 3. Derived from theMean Scale Score (MSS), the Grade Mean Equivalent (GME) describes the year andmonth of school at which the local group's Mean Scale Score equals the National
Mean. If a Mean Scale Score of 677, for example, converts to a Grade MeanEquivalent of 8.8, it indicates that 677 is the Mean National Scale Score for studentswho have completed the eighth month of Grade 8.
A Standard Deviation is a statistic that shows the spread or dispersion of scores in adistribution of scores — in other words, a measure of dispersion. The more the scoresare spread out, the larger the standard deviation.
The "Local Percentiles/Quartiles" section compares the distribution of your students'scores with those of the national norm group. Five points in your local distribution,described below, are compared to the same points nationally. These points are shownon the plot in Part I.
The 90th Local Percentile is the score that divides the highest 10% of your studentscores from the lowest 90%. If this group had scored exactly like the national normgroup, the National Percentile (NP) would be 90. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 90, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 75th Local Percentile or Quartile 3 (Q3) is the score that divides the highest 25%of your student scores from the lowest 75%. If this group had scored exactly like thenational norm group, the NP score would be 75. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 75, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 50th Local Percentile or Quartile 2 (Q2) is the score that divides the highest 50%of your student scores from the lowest 50%. This point is called the median. If thisgroup had scored exactly like the national norm group, the NP score would be 50. Ifthis group''s NP score is greater than 50, they scored higher than the national normgroup.
The 25th Local Percentile or Quartile 1 (Q1) is the score that divides the highest 75%of your student scores from the lowest 25%. If this group had scored exactly like thenational norm group, the NP score would be 25. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 25, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 10th Local Percentile is the score that divides the highest 90% of your studentscores from the lowest 10%. If this group had scored exactly like the national normgroup, the NP score would be 10. If this group''s NP score is greater than 10, theyscored higher than the national norm group.
The "National Quarters" section displays the number and percent of your studentscores that fall into each of the four quarters. It allows you to compare your local scoredistribution to the National Percentile distribution. In the national norm group, 25% ofthe students had NP scores between 76 and 99, 25% were between 51 and 75, 25%were between 26 and 50, and 25% were between 1 and 25. It is desirable for a largerproportion of your students to be in quarters 3 and 4.

This section of the Assessment Summary divides yourstudents into those who have reached or surpassed thegoal of Proficiency, and those who have not. Specifically,for each content area, Level 4 (Proficient) and Level 5(Advanced) are combined into one category called"Proficiency." Level 1 (Step 1), Level 2 (Progressing), andLevel 3 (Nearing Proficiency) are combined into a secondcategory called "Partial Proficiency." The percent ofstudents in the national norm group in each category areincluded to allow for easy comparisons.
It is desirable to have the percent of your students in the"Proficiency" category increase from year to year.Likewise, it is desirable to have the percent of yourstudents in the "Partial Proficiency" category decreasefrom year to year.
More information regarding the performance levels may befound at DRC's website, www.datarecognitioncorp.com.

General Interpretation
The graph on the front of this page shows the obtained achievement scores on TerraNova for your group of students and their
anticipated scores based on their InView results. Your group's Mean Normal Curve Equivalent scores and Mean Anticipated
Normal Curve Equivalent scores are shown at the tops of the bars on the graph. The shaded area on the graph represents the
average range of scores, defined as the middle 50 percent of students nationally. Scores that fall above the shaded area are
above the national average; scores that fall below the shaded area are below the national average.
Educationally meaningful differences between your students' obtained and anticipated scores are indicated below the graph in the
DIFF row. A difference is considered meaningful when the difference between the two scores is 7 or more Normal Curve
Equivalent (NCE) units. (The Normal Curve Equivalent scale is shown on the right of the graph.) When the group's performance is
better than anticipated, the difference is shown as "Above." When the group's performance is below anticipated, the difference is
shown as "Below".

Key Terms
A Scale Score (SS) is the basis for other norm-referenced scores. The Scale Scoredescribes achievement on a continuum that in most cases spans the complete rangeof Kindergarten through Grade 12. Scale Scores range in value from approximately100 to 900. The Mean Scale Score (MSS) is obtained by adding the Scale Scores ofall students in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
Norm-Referenced Scores come from a standardized assessment and compare astudent or group of students with a specified reference group (norm group), usuallyothers of the same grade and age.
An Anticipated Achievement Score (AA) compares an individual student's level ofachievement with that of students of similar age, grade, and cognitive ability.Anticipated Achievement Scores are a function of age, grade, and scores on InView.If a student's age is outside the age range used in the formula to compute AA, his orher age is reset to the minimum or maximum value of the range. The AA for studentswhose ages have been reset may not be as precise as the AA for students whoseages are within the range specified for each grade. (Only applicable when InView istaken.)
A Difference (DIFF) is noted by the words "Above" or "Below" when there is aneducationally meaningful difference between the group's or individual student'sobtained and anticipated scores. The difference is considered meaningful when thereis a 7-unit difference between the obtained Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) andanticipated NCE scores. (Only applicable when InView is taken.)
A National Percentile (NP) is the percentage of students in a norm group whosescores fall below a given student's score. For example, a student that scored at the65th percentile in Reading indicates that the student scored equal to or above 65% ofstudents nationwide in Reading. National Percentiles of 25-75 are considered to be inthe average range, and thus the student's achievement in the example above can beinterpreted to be in the upper end of the average range. The correspondence amongNational Percentiles, National Stanines, and Normal Curve Equivalents is shown inthe graph above. The Median National Percentile (MDNP) is the score that dividesthe distribution in half. If the Median National Percentile for your group was 78, forexample, that would mean that half of the National Percentile scores were above 78and the other half were below 78. The Median National Percentile for the nation is 50.
A Local Percentile (LP) is the percentage of students in a local group whose scoresfall below a given student's score.
The Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) scale ranges from 1 to 99, and coincides withthe National Percentile scale at 1, 50, and 99 (see line graph above). Normal CurveEquivalents have many of the same characteristics as percentile ranks, but have theadditional advantage of being based on an equal-interval scale. The differencebetween two successive scores on the scale has the same meaning throughout thescale. This property allows for meaningful comparisons among different achievementtests. The Mean Normal Curve Equivalent (MNCE) is computed by adding theNormal Curve Equivalent scores of all students in a group, then dividing by thenumber of students in that group.
The National Stanine (NS) scale divides the scores of the norm population into ninegroups (see the National Stanine line graph above). Because stanines are single-digitnumbers, they are less likely than National Percentiles to be confused with thepercentage of items answered correctly; however, they lack precision. For example, astudent with a National Stanine of 6 could have a National Percentile as low as 60and as high as 77 (see line graph above). The Mean National Stanine (MNS) iscomputed by adding all of the National Stanines of all the students in the group, thendividing by the number of students in that group.
A Grade Equivalent (GE) indicates the year and month of school for which astudent's level of performance is typical. For example, a Grade Equivalent of 8.5 isinterpreted to mean that the student's achievement is at a level that is typical ofstudents who have completed the fifth month of Grade 8 (September beingdesignated as .0, June as .9) A Grade Equivalent that is within approximately twoyears of the student's actual grade placement is generally considered an accuratedescription of the student's level of achievement. Use caution, however. A student inGrade 3 may attain a Grade Equivalent of 6.6. This does not mean that the student iscapable of doing sixth-grade work, only that the student is scoring well above averagefor Grade 3. Derived from the Mean Scale Score (MSS), the Grade Mean Equivalent(GME) describes the year and month of school at which the local group's Mean ScaleScore equals the National Mean. If a Mean Scale Score of 677, for example, convertsto a Grade Mean Equivalent of 8.8, it indicates that 677 is the Mean National ScaleScore for students who have completed the eighth month of Grade 8.

General Interpretation
InView consists of five subtests that measure cognitiveability. The five subtests are Sequences, Analogies,Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning-Words, andVerbal Reasoning-Context. Explanations of what thesesubtests measure can be found on the next page. All fivesubtests are combined to create a Total Score.Sequences, Analogies, and Quantitative Reasoning arecombined to yield a Total Nonverbal Score; VerbalReasoning-Words and Verbal Reasoning-Context arecombined to create a Total Verbal Score.
Displayed on the left are the norm-referenced scores forevery subtest taken. The Median National Percentile byGrade is listed in the last column. A National Percentileby Grade compares a student with other students in thesame grade, regardless of their ages.
The Cognitive Skills Index (CSI), which is shownbeneath the table, is an age-dependent standardizedscore based on an individual's performance on InView.This score indicates a student's overall cognitive abilityrelative to other students of the same age without regardto grade. The Mean CSI is the average cognitive abilityscore for this group.

General Interpretation
Each plot in the graph on the front of this page shows the distribution of student scores for a content area tested, indicating both the skewness of
the distribution and the spread of the distribution. The key shown below the graph describes each part of the plot. The median, shown by a
diamond (u), is the score that divides the distribution into upper and lower halves. The dashes immediately above and below the diamond show
the percentile associated with the upper quartile (75th National Percentile) and the lower quartile (25th National Percentile). The dashes at the
ends of the solid line correspond to the bottom (10th National Percentile) and top (90th National Percentile) deciles. (A decile is one of the points
that divides a frequency distribution into 10 equal parts: 10% of the cases fall below the first decile, 20% below the second, and so on). The
dotted line portion of the plot completes the distribution, and shows the top score and the bottom score. A distribution of student scores is
skewed when the Median National Percentile is closer to either the top or bottom decile. On the plot, skewness is indicated by how close the
diamond (u) is to the dashes at the end of the solid line. The spread of student scores is indicated by the length of each plot.
If your group's performance for a given content area was similar to the national norm group, then 10% of the scores would be above the 90th
National Percentile, 25% of the scores would be above the 75th National Percentile, the Median National Percentile would be 50, 25% of the
scores would be below the 25th National Percentile, and 10% of the scores would be below the 10th National Percentile (see graph below).

General Interpretation
This section of the Assessment Summary report presents your data in tabular form. Itis divided into three sections: Mean Scores and Standard Deviations, LocalPercentiles/Quartiles, and National Quarters.
The "Mean Scores and Standard Deviations" section provides some basicnorm-referenced information for your group. The following are the definitions of theterms used:
A Scale Score (SS) is the basis for other norm-referenced scores. The Scale Scoredescribes achievement on a continuum that in most cases spans the complete rangeof Kindergarten through Grade 12. Scale Scores range in value from approximately100 to 900. The Mean Scale Score (MSS) is obtained by adding the Scale Scores ofall students in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
A National Percentile (NP) is the percentage of students in a norm group whosescores fall below a given student's score. For example, a student that scored at the65th percentile in Reading indicates that the student scored at or above the score of65% of students nationwide in Reading. National Percentiles of 25-75 are consideredto be in the average range, and thus the student's achievement in the example abovecan be interpreted to be in the upper end of the average range. The Median NationalPercentile (MDNP) is the score that divides the distribution in half. If the MedianNational Percentile for your group was 78, for example, that would mean that half ofthe National Percentile scores were above 78 and the other half were below 78. TheMedian National Percentile for the nation is 50.
The Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) scale ranges from 1 to 99, and coincides withthe National Percentile scale at 1, 50, and 99. Normal Curve Equivalents have many ofthe same characteristics as percentile ranks, but have the additional advantage ofbeing based on an equal-interval scale. The difference between two successive scoreson the scale has the same meaning throughout the scale. This property allows formeaningful comparisons among different achievement tests. The Mean Normal CurveEquivalent (MNCE) is computed by adding the Normal Curve Equivalent scores of allstudents in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
A Grade Equivalent (GE) indicates the year and month of school for which a student'slevel of performance is typical. For example, a Grade Equivalent of 8.5 is interpreted tomean that the student's achievement is at a level that is typical of students who havecompleted the fifth month of Grade 8 (September being designated as .0, June as .9)Grade Equivalents that are within approximately two years of the student's actualgrade placement are generally considered an accurate description of the student'slevel of achievement. Use caution, however. A student in Grade 3 may attain a GradeEquivalent of 6.6. This does not mean that the student is capable of doing sixth-gradework, only that the student is scoring well above average for Grade 3. Derived from theMean Scale Score (MSS), the Grade Mean Equivalent (GME) describes the year andmonth of school at which the local group's Mean Scale Score equals the National
Mean. If a Mean Scale Score of 677, for example, converts to a Grade MeanEquivalent of 8.8, it indicates that 677 is the Mean National Scale Score for studentswho have completed the eighth month of Grade 8.
A Standard Deviation is a statistic that shows the spread or dispersion of scores in adistribution of scores — in other words, a measure of dispersion. The more the scoresare spread out, the larger the standard deviation.
The "Local Percentiles/Quartiles" section compares the distribution of your students'scores with those of the national norm group. Five points in your local distribution,described below, are compared to the same points nationally. These points are shownon the plot in Part I.
The 90th Local Percentile is the score that divides the highest 10% of your studentscores from the lowest 90%. If this group had scored exactly like the national normgroup, the National Percentile (NP) would be 90. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 90, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 75th Local Percentile or Quartile 3 (Q3) is the score that divides the highest 25%of your student scores from the lowest 75%. If this group had scored exactly like thenational norm group, the NP score would be 75. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 75, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 50th Local Percentile or Quartile 2 (Q2) is the score that divides the highest 50%of your student scores from the lowest 50%. This point is called the median. If thisgroup had scored exactly like the national norm group, the NP score would be 50. Ifthis group''s NP score is greater than 50, they scored higher than the national normgroup.
The 25th Local Percentile or Quartile 1 (Q1) is the score that divides the highest 75%of your student scores from the lowest 25%. If this group had scored exactly like thenational norm group, the NP score would be 25. If this group's NP score is greaterthan 25, they scored higher than the national norm group.
The 10th Local Percentile is the score that divides the highest 90% of your studentscores from the lowest 10%. If this group had scored exactly like the national normgroup, the NP score would be 10. If this group''s NP score is greater than 10, theyscored higher than the national norm group.
The "National Quarters" section displays the number and percent of your studentscores that fall into each of the four quarters. It allows you to compare your local scoredistribution to the National Percentile distribution. In the national norm group, 25% ofthe students had NP scores between 76 and 99, 25% were between 51 and 75, 25%were between 26 and 50, and 25% were between 1 and 25. It is desirable for a largerproportion of your students to be in quarters 3 and 4.

This section of the Assessment Summary divides yourstudents into those who have reached or surpassed thegoal of Proficiency, and those who have not. Specifically,for each content area, Level 4 (Proficient) and Level 5(Advanced) are combined into one category called"Proficiency." Level 1 (Step 1), Level 2 (Progressing), andLevel 3 (Nearing Proficiency) are combined into a secondcategory called "Partial Proficiency." The percent ofstudents in the national norm group in each category areincluded to allow for easy comparisons.
It is desirable to have the percent of your students in the"Proficiency" category increase from year to year.Likewise, it is desirable to have the percent of yourstudents in the "Partial Proficiency" category decreasefrom year to year.

General Interpretation
The graph on the front of this page shows the obtained achievement scores on TerraNova for your group of students and their
anticipated scores based on their InView results. Your group's Mean Normal Curve Equivalent scores and Mean Anticipated
Normal Curve Equivalent scores are shown at the tops of the bars on the graph. The shaded area on the graph represents the
average range of scores, defined as the middle 50 percent of students nationally. Scores that fall above the shaded area are
above the national average; scores that fall below the shaded area are below the national average.
Educationally meaningful differences between your students' obtained and anticipated scores are indicated below the graph in the
DIFF row. A difference is considered meaningful when the difference between the two scores is 7 or more Normal Curve
Equivalent (NCE) units. (The Normal Curve Equivalent scale is shown on the right of the graph.) When the group's performance is
better than anticipated, the difference is shown as "Above." When the group's performance is below anticipated, the difference is
shown as "Below".

Key Terms
A Scale Score (SS) is the basis for other norm-referenced scores. The Scale Scoredescribes achievement on a continuum that in most cases spans the complete rangeof Kindergarten through Grade 12. Scale Scores range in value from approximately100 to 900. The Mean Scale Score (MSS) is obtained by adding the Scale Scores ofall students in a group, then dividing by the number of students in that group.
Norm-Referenced Scores come from a standardized assessment and compare astudent or group of students with a specified reference group (norm group), usuallyothers of the same grade and age.
An Anticipated Achievement Score (AA) compares an individual student's level ofachievement with that of students of similar age, grade, and cognitive ability.Anticipated Achievement Scores are a function of age, grade, and scores on InView.If a student's age is outside the age range used in the formula to compute AA, his orher age is reset to the minimum or maximum value of the range. The AA for studentswhose ages have been reset may not be as precise as the AA for students whoseages are within the range specified for each grade. (Only applicable when InView istaken.)
A Difference (DIFF) is noted by the words "Above" or "Below" when there is aneducationally meaningful difference between the group's or individual student'sobtained and anticipated scores. The difference is considered meaningful when thereis a 7-unit difference between the obtained Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) andanticipated NCE scores. (Only applicable when InView is taken.)
A National Percentile (NP) is the percentage of students in a norm group whosescores fall below a given student's score. For example, a student that scored at the65th percentile in Reading indicates that the student scored equal to or above 65% ofstudents nationwide in Reading. National Percentiles of 25-75 are considered to be inthe average range, and thus the student's achievement in the example above can beinterpreted to be in the upper end of the average range. The correspondence amongNational Percentiles, National Stanines, and Normal Curve Equivalents is shown inthe graph above. The Median National Percentile (MDNP) is the score that dividesthe distribution in half. If the Median National Percentile for your group was 78, forexample, that would mean that half of the National Percentile scores were above 78and the other half were below 78. The Median National Percentile for the nation is 50.
A Local Percentile (LP) is the percentage of students in a local group whose scoresfall below a given student's score.
The Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) scale ranges from 1 to 99, and coincides withthe National Percentile scale at 1, 50, and 99 (see line graph above). Normal CurveEquivalents have many of the same characteristics as percentile ranks, but have theadditional advantage of being based on an equal-interval scale. The differencebetween two successive scores on the scale has the same meaning throughout thescale. This property allows for meaningful comparisons among different achievementtests. The Mean Normal Curve Equivalent (MNCE) is computed by adding theNormal Curve Equivalent scores of all students in a group, then dividing by thenumber of students in that group.
The National Stanine (NS) scale divides the scores of the norm population into ninegroups (see the National Stanine line graph above). Because stanines are single-digitnumbers, they are less likely than National Percentiles to be confused with thepercentage of items answered correctly; however, they lack precision. For example, astudent with a National Stanine of 6 could have a National Percentile as low as 60and as high as 77 (see line graph above). The Mean National Stanine (MNS) iscomputed by adding all of the National Stanines of all the students in the group, thendividing by the number of students in that group.
A Grade Equivalent (GE) indicates the year and month of school for which astudent's level of performance is typical. For example, a Grade Equivalent of 8.5 isinterpreted to mean that the student's achievement is at a level that is typical ofstudents who have completed the fifth month of Grade 8 (September beingdesignated as .0, June as .9) A Grade Equivalent that is within approximately twoyears of the student's actual grade placement is generally considered an accuratedescription of the student's level of achievement. Use caution, however. A student inGrade 3 may attain a Grade Equivalent of 6.6. This does not mean that the student iscapable of doing sixth-grade work, only that the student is scoring well above averagefor Grade 3. Derived from the Mean Scale Score (MSS), the Grade Mean Equivalent(GME) describes the year and month of school at which the local group's Mean ScaleScore equals the National Mean. If a Mean Scale Score of 677, for example, convertsto a Grade Mean Equivalent of 8.8, it indicates that 677 is the Mean National ScaleScore for students who have completed the eighth month of Grade 8.
Additional information about the interpretation of these scores and the use of testresults can be found at DRC's website, www.datarecogntioncorp.com.

General Interpretation
InView consists of five subtests that measure cognitiveability. The five subtests are Sequences, Analogies,Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning-Words, andVerbal Reasoning-Context. Explanations of what thesesubtests measure can be found on the next page. All fivesubtests are combined to create a Total Score.Sequences, Analogies, and Quantitative Reasoning arecombined to yield a Total Nonverbal Score; VerbalReasoning-Words and Verbal Reasoning-Context arecombined to create a Total Verbal Score.
Displayed on the left are the norm-referenced scores forevery subtest taken. The Median National Percentile byGrade is listed in the last column. A National Percentileby Grade compares a student with other students in thesame grade, regardless of their ages.
The Cognitive Skills Index (CSI), which is shownbeneath the table, is an age-dependent standardizedscore based on an individual's performance on InView.This score indicates a student's overall cognitive abilityrelative to other students of the same age without regardto grade. The Mean CSI is the average cognitive abilityscore for this group.
