# Creating a Mastery Tracker

![Aware Premium OHG graphic v2.png](https://cdn.us.document360.io/d6ce927e-20b2-40ab-af8d-ea0afbbc28f7/Images/Documentation/17027874819863.png)

To begin using Mastery to track student performance, you must first create a mastery tracker. A teacher with rostered classes or a user with an approved student access list can create mastery trackers. Users with the [View Student Tests](/v1/docs/viewing-assessment-data-as-a-teacher) right can view a teacher’s mastery trackers but cannot edit them.

## **Quick Guide**

1. Navigate to **Mastery** ( emoji_events ) under **Students**.
2. Click **Create Tracker**( add_circle ).
3. Enter a **Title**.
4. (Optional) Type a **Description** to provide additional information about the tracker.
5. Select the **Subject** and **Grade Level**.
6. Select **Add Standard Set** to select the sets of standards to apply to the tracker and then choose **Apply**.
7. Select the **Test Types** associated with the tracker.
8. Select **Create & Continue**.
9. Select assessments (or skip this step for now) and click **Next**(keyboard_arrow_right).
10. Select students (or skip this step for now) and click **Finish**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** No data will populate into a Mastery Tracker until users select assessments and students. Teachers can add this information to the tracker later as needed.

**Step 6:**Choose which sets of standards the tracker will use. To do this, select **Add Standard Set**. In the **Standard Sets**window that appears, select one or more sets to tie to the tracker and then select **Apply**.

The **Subject**and **Grade Level**filters populate automatically based on your selections in Step 4. You can use the drop-down menus to change these selections, use the **Search**bar to locate specific standard sets, or select **Reset Filters**to clear all filters.

Selected standard sets appear in the box at the top of the window.

**Step 7:**Select the **Test Types** associated with the tracker. You can choose to **Select All**, **Select None**, or select individual **Test Types** as desired.

The test types available in this section are based on the standard sets that you chose in Step 5.

### **Selecting Assessments**

**Step 1:** Check the box ( check_box_outline_blank) next to the assessments you want to include in the tracker. If you want to skip the step for now, click **Next**(keyboard_arrow_right ).

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:**No data will populate into a mastery tracker until assessments and students are selected. Teachers can add this information to the tracker later as needed.

Search for assessments with the **Years**, **Grade**, **Subject**, and **Test Type** filters or by typing the assessment name in the search field. Eduphoria recommends that teachers strategically select assessments to count for student mastery of standards. Selected tests automatically move to the top of the assessment list.

Teachers can manually add new tests to a tracker as the school year progresses. Tests from inactive years cannot be added to a tracker.

**Step 2:** Click **Next**(keyboard_arrow_right)****to continue.
