Using the Customization Tabs

The tabs at the top of the table allow for quick modification and customization of reports. Changes may be made to multiple tabs at once before clicking “Update.”

• Report Type
  This feature allows for selection of a different report type.
  
• Stats
  Use this feature to choose which statistics are shown in the report.
  
• Subjects
  Use this feature to choose which subjects to view.
  
• Filter
  Use this feature to include or exclude students based on demographic characteristics. To include a subgroup, click on the desired demographic variable from the drop-down list. To select more than one subgroup, simply click on another demographic variable. Click on the word “and” or “or” to specify the logical relationship between the subgroups selected. “And” will only show students who fall under all of the characteristics selected whereas “or” will show students who fall under any one or more of the characteristics.
  
  For instance, to view students who are either Asian or female, select “Female” and “Asian”. Then, click the “and” link, which is automatically selected, to change to “or” and click “Update.”
  
• Disaggregate
  Use this feature to disaggregate the report by different subgroups. For example, to see statistics for different ethnicities, first select "Ethnicity" and then click "Update."
