Assessment Import Updates
Product Path: Student Information > Assessment Administration > Assessment Center
The Assessment Center score importer has been enhanced to support vertical file imports, in addition to the existing horizontal file format. Vertical files allow for one score per row with multiple rows per student, while horizontal files have one row per student containing all scores. The "Apply to All" feature is only visible and functional for Horizontal orientation. Additionally, unique assessment names within an assessment "family" are now required to save new or modify existing assessments. These improvements facilitate the direct import of vertical score files from the national assessment vendors, eliminating the need for manual conversion.
