The Analyze section of Testing 1, 2, 3 helps make sense of Minnesota statewide assessment results. Statewide assessments are one part of a coordinated system of assessments that together provide a more complete picture of student learning than any single assessment can offer on its own.
Statewide assessment results are most useful when:
- Reviewed alongside classroom assessments, student work, and other local evidence of learning
- Interpreted at the summarized level to examine patterns across student groups, grades, and schools
- Used as a starting point for questions and reflections, not as a final answer
