At Migration

Migrating data from mylexile to
Literacy Pro
Literacy Pro and mylexile Data
Literacy Pro has been developed to provide Educators with a rich source of evidenceand research-based data. That means that data is able to summarised at several levels.
This is a sample of the Lexile Growth Report.
mylexile.com.au does not have the capability to report data in this way. This
presentation will explain the way the data migrated from mylexile to Literacy Pro will
be able to be viewed.

Migration of mylexile data to Literacy Pro
Student level data
The data held in mylexile is only stored at the student level. When it is migrated into
Literacy Pro it will be made available through the student level Reading Report Card
and and summarised in a NEW Class Reading Report Card.
Year level data
Because the Year level a student was in this year was identified in mylexile, Literacy Pro
has been able to summarise data at the Year level.
Class level data
Data previously held in mylexile was not stored by class, so migration data is not
displayed for teachers by Class.
Administrator’s Home Page at time of
migration
This is the
Administrator’s Home
Page – or dashboard. An
Administrator is able to
view all school data by
Year, Class and Student.
The data that is
summarised on the
Home page at the time of
migration is taken from
results from each
individual student’s
Reading Report Card for
2014.

the Lexile bands that align
with Reading Proficiency
required to read at each
year level.
It displays the Lexile Range
for the four bands:
• Below Basic

quizzes by school and year
level.

The Quiz Pass Rate Report
summarises the percentage
of comprehension quizzes
passed, in comparison to
quizzes attempted. It shows
the average data by school
and year level.
Teachers’ Home Page at time of migration
At the time of
migration, there is
no data able to be
summarised on a
Teacher’s Home
Page by Class.
This is because
students’ data was
not tagged in
mylexile in a way
that can be
recognised in
Literacy Pro.
Teachers’ Reports at the time of migration
The Reports Page shows
eight reports that
summarise Class and
Student level data
Because the data is not
tagged in mylexile at the
class level, you will see
the message below, until
new data is gathered in
Literacy Pro.
Only the Class Reading
Report Card will display
data at the time of
migration.
Teachers’ Reports at the time of migration
The Class Reading Report
Card lists all the key data
by student.
Educators’ Search in Literacy Pro
There are many
ways to search in
Literacy Pro.
Currently the
Book Title or
Author Search
has been set up
to pick up an
exact word.
For example, if
you search on
‘car’ titles with
‘cars’ in them
will not display
Default Settings
When data is
migrated, the
Settings are set
to the Default
shown.
There are default
settings for the
• LitPro Test
• Book Quizzes,
and
• Awards.
Changing Settings
If the Administrator
changes and saves
new settings, these
settings are applied
to the whole school
including all classes
and students.
A class teacher may
override the
Administrator’s
Settings at a Class
or student level.
Educational Level Setting
In Literacy Pro, the
Default access to
books and quizzes
is classified by
Education level.
This is so students
are unable to
access titles that
may be
inappropriate for
their age.
The Educational Levels in Literacy Pro are:
• Lower Primary – F to Year 2
• Middle Primary – Years 3 and 4
• Upper Primary – Years 5 and 6
• Secondary – Years 7+
Changing the Educational Level Setting
An Administrator or
Teacher may
override the
Default Setting at a
Class or Student
level.
This will allow
students to search
for books and
quizzes outside
their educational
level.
Award Settings
The Default Award
Settings are based
on Points Earned.
This setting may
may be changed to
Quizzes Passed.
If the Awards are
changed from
Points to Quizzes,
Literacy Pro will
recalculate the
awards for all
students.
Award Settings
The individual
amounts for each
award may be
changed by clicking
on the number.
Then Save the
Settings.
Award Certificates at Migration
At migration, quiz
results from 2014
will contribute to
their Award
Certificate.
Only Teachers, not
Administrators, can
add points.
Currently, only
points awarded
through quizzes are
tallied towards
Award Certificates.
In a future upgrade,
Teacher Points will
be added to the
total.
Print Award Certificates
Award Certificates
may be printed at a
Class level from the
Reports Page.
They may also be
printed from an
individual student’s
Reading Report Page.
Also available at
migration to be
printed is a Parent
Letter and the
Reading Report Card.
After students have
taken a LitPro Test,
this will also be
available to print.
Teacher and Students details
Teacher and student
data is listed in
Scholastic Learning
Zone.
This is because the
SLZ Portal provides
access to multiple
digital resources, and
teacher and student
data only needs to be
entered once.
Teacher and Students details
Lists of Student
Usernames and
Passwords may be
downloaded under
Manage Users /
Organize Users.
When students
complete the LitPro
Test, their current
Lexile will also be
listed in this
download.
Library Match
To match titles in your library to the Literacy Pro database, go to the “In
Library” Icon and follow the instructions. Titles will then display with the In
Library icon
next to them.
This presentation was designed to explain what happens to
Lexile data At Migration into Literacy Pro.
As students begin to take the test and quizzes in Literacy Pro,
data will accumulate and report at the Class by Student level.
