Modified on Tue, 7 Apr at 6:21 AM

This article outlines the process for setting up Standardised testing instruments and importing standardised testing data from a .CSV file into SEQTA Teach. Once imported Standardised testing data can be viewed in various areas in SEQTA Teach.

Uploading standardised testing reports, (such as NAPLAN PDF files) is done using a different process, which is outlined in Importing NAPLAN or OLNA files.

Step 1: Setup Instrument	Refer to the article Standardised testing Creating and configuring Instruments for detailed steps.	Administration workspace>Standardised testing management>Instrument setup
Step 2: Ensure the spreadsheet has the required information. This includes student details and standardised testing data.	Ideally, the spreadsheet will contain the unique student ID. If using only first and surname to match students, create a separate .CSV file for those students with the same name. In this separate file add a column to that spreadsheet and enter the students code in it. Import separately.	(done in the spreadsheet program)
Step 3: Save the import file as a .CSV file	Open the file in Excel and save as a .CSV file.	(done in the spreadsheet program)
Step 4: Enter the statistical data into the Instrument statistics.	Refer to the article Standardised testing setup: Entering the Statistical Data for an Instrument for detailed steps. NOTE: This process requires using formula to find the values that need to be entered.	(done in the spreadsheet program) and Administration workspace>Standardised testing management>Instrument statistics entry
Step 5: Import the data into SEQTA.	Refer to the article Importing Standardised testing data for detailed steps.	Administration workspace>Standardised testing management>Import data
Step 6: Confirm import was successful	Refer to the article Standardised testing data: Viewing standardised testing data in SEQTA Teach for detailed steps.	SIP, Attendance and Marks book
