Benefits of Personalized Video SSRs
The benefits of video SSRs include the following:
- Video SSRs, when used in addition to traditional reporting, can reach a diverse range of families and result in a better level of understanding the test scores.
- The video SSR can “point” families to specific conclusions and even to personalized recommendations, such as resources that are aligned to a student’s needs.
- Videos provide additional opportunities for families to interact with the student’s SSR. Each video is specific to the student, providing educators, students, and families with easy-to-understand insights.
- Since video SSRs can be viewed through mobile devices, they provide a more engaging format for families who may not use a computer regularly.
- Video SSRs can explain scores more than conventional SSRs, helping parents/guardians better understand and act on the results.
- Video viewing is trackable; LEAs will be able to know whether a family viewed a child’s scores and, through an embedded survey, whether the family understood and acted on the video SSR (i.e., discussing their child’s score with the child or the teacher).
Distributing Video SSRs to Parents/Guardians
Video SSRs will be available with the release of the SSRs. LEAs will be provided links to each student’s video SSRs to distribute to parents/guardians.
Video SSR links can be provided to parents/guardians via a locally determined secure method. LEAs could distribute video SSRs using any of the following methods:
- Create a mail merge to send an email
- Send a text message to parents/guardians using the LEA-standard communication method
- Publish the video SSR link to the LEA’s parent or student portal
