The Prescriptive Scheduling Report is a forecasting tool that enables you to monitor student progress and adjust schedules to reach performance goals. By specifying a time frame and a target level for each grade, the report can provide projections of where the student will be at the targeted date and, based on the student's current rate, the additional amount of time in the course for the student to achieve the target level.
Note: Only a default math or reading course can be used to run a Prescriptive Scheduling Report. If a custom math or reading course is created, the PSR will not allow a choice for the custom course.
Important: The projections in the Prescriptive Scheduling Report (PSR) are based on the most recent four calendar weeks of usage. This means that if students have not had regular usage for four weeks prior to running the report, the projections will not be an accurate reflection of their recent usage.
You can run the report with the default settings or you can select options to customize the report. Hold down the Shift or Ctrl keys on a PC, or press the Cmd key on a Mac to make multiple selections.
