- Practiced (the student completed practice exercises on the topic)
- Played game (the student played an educational math game on the topic)
The numbers indicate how successfully the student completed the tasks and the time it took.
What reports best show long-term progress?
For viewing information on long-term learning progress, we recommend using one of the main reports called 'Completeness.' To do this, select 'Completeness' in the menu and choose the time period '1 month.'
The 'Completeness' report shows the percentage of the program that has been completed. Progress is displayed visually on a graph. The 'Avg. score' indicates the quality of learning, showing the average score with which the student is progressing through the program.
What is the best way to set measurable goals for our students?
Leverage the data available in both the 'Completeness' and 'Activity Log' reports. Start by setting goals around program completion, as indicated by the 'Completeness' report, which shows the percentage of the curriculum each student has completed. You can set milestones for program progression over specific time periods, such as a 10% -15% increase in completeness every month.
Additionally, the 'Avg. score' metric within the 'Completeness' report can serve as a quality benchmark. For instance, goals can be set for students to maintain or improve their average scores over time, aiming for a certain minimum score threshold that reflects mastery.
The 'Activity Log' can supplement these long-term goals by providing insights into weekly activity. Teachers could set short-term goals, such as completing a specified number of learning activities (e.g., video lessons, practice exercises, or educational games) weekly, focusing on areas where students encounter the most errors. Together, these tools offer a well-rounded approach to tracking and measuring student progress, both in breadth (completeness) and depth (score quality).
What does the 'Completeness' metric measure, and how is it calculated?
“Completeness" is calculated based on the percentage of the program a student has completed, rather than on points earned. It reflects how much of the curriculum each student has covered, tracking their progression through the learning material. This metric is independent of points or scores; it focuses purely on the breadth of content completed, providing a clear picture of a student's advancement through the curriculum without directly tying to performance scores or total points.
The "Avg. score" metric, on the other hand, offers insight into the quality of understanding, showing the average score achieved in completed sections. Together, "Completeness" and "Avg. score" provide a balanced view of both progress and mastery.
How to use achievements to monitor student progress?
Achievements in the 'Progress' category provide a way for teachers to monitor student advancement without impacting the difficulty or amount of material presented. Many of these achievements are designed to be earned as students naturally move through the program, allowing teachers to track progress milestones.
By checking the achievement status, teachers can get a sense of how far each student has come. These achievements serve as a rewarding acknowledgment of the student’s effort, patience, and persistence, enriching their learning experience without imposing additional challenges or restrictions.
Why do my students have high average scores but low % complete?
A high average score with little movement in "% complete" likely indicates that students are achieving well in the activities they've attempted but may not be progressing through new content at a steady pace. This could happen if students are spending more time reviewing or practicing already completed material rather than advancing through new sections of the curriculum.
Encouraging students to work on fresh topics and gradually expand into new areas will help increase their "% complete" while maintaining their strong performance levels reflected in their average scores. Monitoring the "Activity Log" may also provide insights into their activity types, helping teachers guide students to balance review and progression.
Adaptive Learning
Following diagnostics, can we trust that students are working on the right material, or do they still need specific guidance?
The diagnostic and adaptive learning process is designed to direct students through topics where they may need the most improvement, regardless of their initial grade level. This approach ensures that each student focuses on areas aligned with their specific strengths and weaknesses, rather than following a standard, grade-level progression. The system identifies gaps in understanding and prioritizes those, allowing for a highly individualized learning path.
Reports such as the 'Activity Log' provide insight into recent activities, while the 'Completeness' report offers a broader view of long-term progress, showing both the percentage of the program completed and average scores. This helps track if students are steadily moving through relevant material. Consequently, the adaptive nature of the diagnostic provides enough guidance to trust that students are consistently working on the material they need most, with minimal requirement for additional, specific instruction.
How does the Adaptive Learning Path contribute to mastery in my classroom?
The Adaptive Learning Path is designed to foster mastery among your students. By allowing them to move forward only after achieving a score of 80% or higher, it ensures a solid foundation in each concept.
Why can't my students skip a lesson or move to another topic when following the Adaptive Learning Path?
Singapore Math, mastery is fundamental. When your students follow the Adaptive Learning Path, they can progress to the next lesson only after achieving a score of 80% or higher on the previous one. This approach ensures a robust understanding of concepts before advancing, supporting effective learning in the classroom
How can I assess whether students need additional support when they are following the adaptive learning path?
To evaluate a student's performance on the adaptive learning path, navigate to the 'Adaptive Learning Progress' section by clicking on 'More.' Here, you'll find detailed insights into each student's progress across the eight core topics in elementary mathematics.

Where do I find Adaptive Learning Progress Reports?
To view the reports, click "More" and select "Adaptive Learning Progress" for detailed insights into each student's progress across eight main math topics.
Why are my students studying topics from different grade levels following the Diagnostic Assessment?
The program assesses students on each topic separately from Kindergarten to Grade 5. For instance, if you choose Grade 4 to begin the test, the program may present questions from Grade 4. If students answer these questions incorrectly, the program will then assess their understanding of the topic at lower grade levels. As a result, students may be placed into different grade levels or provided with lessons covering topics from various grade levels based on their proficiency in specific areas.
Why aren’t my strong math students progressing faster?
Strong math students may progress more slowly if the diagnostic and adaptive learning system detects areas needing reinforcement before advancing. The system personalizes learning paths to address any gaps, ensuring a solid mastery of foundational concepts. This approach supports thorough understanding over rapid advancement. Reviewing the 'Activity Log' can provide insight into the specific areas where students are focusing or receiving additional support.
After diagnostics, is it common for students to start with lower-grade material?
Yes, it’s common for students to start with lower-grade material. Learning is structured to gradually address topics that students may have studied less and where they tend to make the most errors. In the diagnostic and adaptive learning process, grade level is only a starting point; the focus remains on each student’s unique strengths and areas for improvement. Our priority is to tailor learning to meet each student’s actual needs.
