 Spring 2017 Preliminary Reports
This article has been taken from the
May 25, 2017 issue of Spotlight on Student Assessment & Accountability
The Preliminary Student Roster Report for M-STEP and MI-Access online assessments contain preliminary scale scores, points earned, and subscores (claim, strand, or discipline scores) by content area and grade. Reports are available within 48 hours of students completing all portions of a content area test.
Preliminary Student Roster reports are for school use only, and contain scores that are preliminary and subject to change. Preliminary scores are calculated using only machine-scored items available at the time the test is submitted. Constructed response items are
not included in preliminary scores.
To view your school's Preliminary Student Roster Reports, review
How to Access and Navigate Michigan's Interactive Assessment Reporting Site on the
M-STEP web page (
www.michigan.gov/mstep) or
MI-Access web page (
www.michigan.gov/mi-access) under the
Reports section for step-by-step instructions on accessing the Dynamic Score Reporting Site. The
Guide to Preliminary Reports is also available on the
M-STEP web page (
www.michigan.gov/mstep) for information about the data contained in the Preliminary Reports.
Important: The data should not be used for any high stakes decisions (e.g. grade or course placement, curricular evaluations, teacher evaluations, etc.) for the following reasons:
- scores presented in this report are PRELIMINARY and subject to change
- preliminary scores are calculated using only machine-scored items available at the time the test is submitted
- data presented in these reports are not a final evaluation of student performance
