# Viewing Standards Coverage in Scope and Sequence

When set to viewing **Standards**, Scope and Sequence provides an overview of standards coverage across preps for the selected course and date range. Once you select the **Date Range** and **Course**, the chart updates to show standards coverage by date. This article details the parts of the Scope and Sequence analysis tool and explains how to understand and apply your findings.

## **Columns**

Each column displays the month and numerical date, abbreviated day of the week, and day of the instructional calendar. Today’s date is highlighted in blue.

If an assessment window has been set, a blue bar with the assessment title appears below the date(s).

Units span multiple columns and are based on the duration and start date. You can select a unit to highlight all cells matching standards that are linked to the unit and display details for all standards in the unit.

## **Rows**

Each row represents a learning standard. You can select a standard to highlight all cells in the row and display the details panel.

## **Cells**

Each cell in the table appears a shade of blue or gray based on the percentage of teachers whose planner content matches the standard for the given date.

For example, if four out of four (4/4) Algebra 1 teachers added standard A.1(A) to August 13th in their planners, then the cell appears dark blue. If only one out of four teachers (1/4) added standard A.1(A), then the cell appears light blue. Likewise, if no teachers added standard A.1(A), then the cell is gray.

Click on a cell to display the details panel for the specific standard on the specific date.

## Details Panel

The details panel displays information related to standards and preps. The information shown varies depending on whether you select a unit, a standard, or a cell.

### Header

If you select a unit, the header displays the selected date range and the unit name.

If you select a standard or an individual cell, the standard appears in the header, and the preps are automatically shown in the body of the details panel.

### Preps

Each prep card displays the prep name, whether the prep is owned by an individual or a team, and the name of the prep owner. When you highlight an individual cell, all preps for that standard are shown for that date. When you highlight a unit or a row, the preps are organized into three tabs:

- **In Scope** – Preps that cover the standard inside the date range. The planner for this prep includes the standard, and it falls within the date range that you are currently viewing.
- **Out of Scope** – Preps that cover the standard outside the date range. The planner for this prep includes the standard, but on a date that falls outside of the date range that you are currently viewing.
- **Not Covered** – Preps that do not cover the standard. The planner for this prep does not include the standard inside or outside of the date range. A yellow alert icon () appears beside the prep name.
