When Faculty log into myON, they can see a dashboard that shows them information about their roster, groups, students, their students' placement scores, and their students' reading in myON. Teachers can go back to this page by selecting the myON logo at the top of any page.
You will see a list of the students on your roster and information about their reading. You'll also see information for your roster and groups as a whole.
Above the table of students, you'll see options that let you choose the information you want to see. You can choose to see students' reading placement scores, information about their reading (time spent reading, books finished, and pages read), student recordings, their scores on myON book quizzes, and how many assignments they've been assigned.
Reading Placement
If your subscription uses the myON placement test, you'll see the Reading Placement tab. When "Reading Placement" is selected, you'll see information about each student's most recent assessment, including the assessment date, the type of placement assessment (myON placement, Star Early Literacy, or Star Reading), the Star score, and the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). For students who have not taken a placement assessment, "Grade Equivalent" will be shown instead, and the ZPD will be based on the student's grade. For more about placement assessments, see Understanding Placement Test Functionality. The last column (Placement waiting) shows whether students may take a myON placement assessment now (Yes), either because they haven't taken one or because it's time for a retest based on the building settings. Note: The Reading Placement tab is not available if your license uses Lexile® assessments.
You can select See Assessment Settings to see the settings that your Building Administrator has chosen. Settings may include the grade levels that myON placement tests are available for, whether the test is optional, and how often students will be asked to test again.
Lexile
If your myON version includes Lexile® assessments or Fastbridge scores have been imported, you will see a Lexile® tab instead of Reading Placement. When Lexile® is selected, you will see each student's current Lexile® score. In the Range column, you'll see the difference between each student's score in the selected time period and the lowest score in the class during the time period; the longer the line, the more this student's score is above the lowest score. (A circle in the Range column means the student's last score is from a previous time period.) If students have taken more than one assessment, you will also see the change from the student's last score and the student's trend in scores - up (green arrow) or down (red arrow). You can choose to view scores for this school year, this month, this week, or today.
The left side of the page shows you the average Lexile® score for the roster and each group, and the change in scores overall for the selected time period.
If you want to see an individual student's Lexile® scores, select the student's name; then, select Assessments. Lexile® scores are also available on reports.
Reading
When Reading is selected, you can see information about your students' reading, including time spent reading, books finished, and pages read. Select an option below the heading to choose the information to see.
Choose the Time Periods to Show and Compare
Use the drop-down list in the top right corner of the page to choose the time periods you want to see or compare data for. This school year shows the totals for the entire school year. The other choices are comparisons; you can compare data for yesterday and today, last week and this week, or last month and this month.
Time Spent Reading
Time Spent Reading shows you how many minutes students have read. If you chose to see data for the last and current month, week, or day, you'll see time spent reading for both time periods. The second to last column shows the trend; a green arrow pointing up like those shown below means students spent more time reading in the current time period, while a red arrow pointing down means they spent less time. You can sort students by the information in most columns by clicking the column heading.
The left side of the page shows whether the class as a whole and each group have spent more or less time reading in the current time period.
Books Finished
When "Books Finished" is selected, you will see how many books each of the students has read. If you chose to compare two time periods, you'll see the number of books each student finished for each time period, and in the Trend column, you will see whether the student finished more books in the most recent time period (green arrow) or fewer books (red arrow).
On the left side of the page, you'll see books finished for the class as a whole and the groups.
To see the books read by individual students, select the student's name, then select Books read.
Pages Read
When "Pages read" is selected, the view is very similar to the Books Finished view, but the number of pages read is shown in all cases instead of books finished. The same time periods and comparisons are available that you will see for Books Finished.
Recording
On the Recording tab, you will see information about the recordings that your students have made of their own reading. Note: This tab is not available if the district settings do not allow student recordings.
First, use the drop-down list to choose the time period to view recordings for: this school year, last month and this month, last week and this week, yesterday and today, or simply the last activity (recording) for each student.
If you choose one of the options that compares time periods, you can also choose whether to see and compare the total duration of recordings, the number submitted, or the number in progress.
In the Last Activity view, for each student on your roster who has recorded books, you'll see information about their last recording, including the date, the duration, the number of pages, the book name, and whether the recording has been submitted to the teacher or is in progress.
If you view data for this school year, for each student, you'll see the total duration of all of their recordings, the number of pages they recorded, the number of recordings they turned in, and the number that are in progress.
To see all of the recordings a student has made, and to listen to those recordings, select the student's name. You will go to the student's page with the "Books recorded" tab selected; on that page, you can select a recording to listen to it; you can also delete recordings.
Content Read
If your myON version includes Lexile® assessments or Fastbridge scores have been imported, you'll see a Content Read tab. When that tab is selected, you'll see each student's mix of fiction (blue) and nonfiction (orange) reading. On the left, you'll see the overall percentages of fiction vs. nonfiction for the roster and each group.
You'll also see each student's Lexile® score compared to the average Lexile® of the books the student has read; the Target column shows you whether students are reading above their Lexile® (green arrow) or below it (red arrow). To the left, you'll see the average student Lexile® score for the roster and groups and the average Lexile® of the books read by each roster or group.
You can choose to view this information for the school year, this month, this week, or today.
Quizzes
When "Quizzes" is selected, you can see how students have been performing on myON book quizzes. (Note that this does not show performance on Accelerated Reader Quizzes if your students have access to those quizzes.)
For each student, you'll see the student's average quiz scores for the time periods you are comparing (last month and this month, last week and this week, or yesterday and today). In the Trend column, you'll see whether the scores are up (green arrow) or down (red arrow) in the current time period. If you have chosen to view the school year, you will see the overall average quiz scores for the entire year.
On the left, you'll see the overall average quiz scores for the roster and each group (and the trends if you have chosen to compare time periods).
To see the myON book quizzes taken by individual students, select the student's name; then, select Book quizzes. (Note that this view shows only myON book quizzes; for Accelerated Reader Quizzes, see the Accelerated Reader Record Book or reports.)
Assignments
When "Assignments" is selected, you will see a list of the assignments for the class, the due date, and how many students have completed the assignment versus the number of students who have it assigned. To go directly to the student progress view for an assignment, select View Progress in the row for the assignment. No time periods are selected for this view; the numbers reflect the assignments assigned this school year.
To the left, you'll see the total number of assignments assigned to your roster and each group; note that these totals count each assignment once for each student.
For more information about assignment status, see Determining Assignment Completion.
Printing
You can print the data you're viewing on any tab by selecting the print icon and selecting the printer to use.
