Quick guide: The new WordFlyers 2017 student reports

Content area reportThis report is a snapshot of each student’s average score for the main content areas.

It can be filtered by time frames and level.

Interpreting the data

Note: In this report you cannot see the number of attempts taken by a student to pass individual lessons. This can be seen in Student report/ Lessons complete.

This report shows:

the number of lessons completed by each student in a content area, such as Punctuation or Grammar 1 & 2

each student’s number of attempts at lessons in the content area

the students’ average score for a content area

the class average for each of these three figures.

Interpreting averages dataUse these examples to understand the averages data. Ideally, the number of lesson attempts for each student is not more than double the Number of lessons completed score.

Student is passing lessons at an acceptable standard. 50 lessons completed ÷ 100 attempts = the student took an average of 2 attempts to receive a pass score.

This student probably makes a few errors the first time they complete the lesson, but is able to correct most or all of these errors in their second attempt.

EXAMPLE 1

Student to struggling to pass lessons 50 lessons ÷ 195 attempts = the student took an average of 3.9 attempts to receive a pass score.

Given the amount of support students receive to get the correct answers, an average of almost 4 attempts would indicate that this student is really struggling with the content area and may be working at too high a level.

EXAMPLE 2

Student is passing lessons easily 50 lessons ÷ 60 attempts = the student took an average of 1.2 attempts to receive a pass score.

This student is close to passing each lesson the first time they complete it. The student could be directed to work on higher level content.
