Scoring Student Inventories

The Student Inventory system allows districts to construct the structure and criteria necessary to collect specific inventory data for inventories such as TPRI, DRA, DRA2, TEMI, DIBELS, Fountas & Pinnell, etc. 

A teacher or administrator must enter the scores for each student in order for data analysis on the student inventory assessment to be possible.

Entering Inventory Assessment Scores as a Teacher

Teachers will enter inventory assessment scores similarly to how they enter assessment answers for a regular assessment in Aware. 

Step 1: Select Administer under Assessments.

Step 2: Select the Enter Answers icon for the student inventory assessment under Tests Available.

Step 3: Select a class and click Load Students.

Step 4: Select a student from the list, and enter the scores. Click Save when you’re finished.

When entering inventory scores, ensure to set the overall status. Each task displays the ranges and whether or not the task is required.

Note: Always click Save before moving to the next student. Otherwise, the scores will not be saved.

A green check mark will appear next to the student once you have entered both the overall status and all required scores and saved.

Entering Inventory Assessment Scores as an Administrator

Administrators will have a different process than teachers in entering inventory assessment scores.

Step 1: Locate the inventory assessment by selecting Author, and then the Inventory tab.

Step 2: Select the inventory assessment and open the Administration tab.

From the Administration tab, you can choose to allow teachers to create assessment entries or allow administrators only.

Note: Choosing administrators only will prevent teachers from entering assessment scores. Allowing teachers to enter scores will not prevent administrators from entering scores. 

Step 3: Click Create Assessment Entries if administrators only will be entering scores. Select which campuses and courses for which you want to create assessment entries, and click Finish.

Step 4: Navigate to Profiles and search for the student for which you are entering inventory assessment scores.

Step 5: Select the student, and open the Test and Scores tab on their profile.

Step 6: Double-click the name of the inventory assessment for which you want to enter scores. Click Enter Scores.

Step 7: Enter the scores and click Save when you’re finished.

When entering inventory scores, ensure to set the overall status. Each task displays the ranges and whether or not the task is required.

Note: Always click Save before navigating to another student. Otherwise, the scores will not be saved.
