The Outcome Analysis report is a progress report which allows programs to analyze progressive data for one or several of the Galileo G3 Assessment Scales over multiple time periods in one report. This report has the ability to aggregate and disaggregate data for an entire program, agency, center, class, or at the individual child level.
This is the only report in Galileo which will allow users to select multiple scales, more than three time periods, and include selected centers or classes in a single report. This report also includes the ability to drill down to the child level displaying all on one page.
TIP: This is available to Agency-, Center-, and Class-level users.
This report is an interactive report that includes additional data which can be accessed through the linked areas of the report.
When the report displays each time period is indicated by a graph with an individual bar for each selected scale. The colored rows in the table correspond to the time periods indicated by the bars. Each row displays period dates, DL (developmental level) scores, and in parenthesis the number of children. The bottom row presents the average increase or gain in DL score by comparing the first period to the last period. Clicking the chart or the Number of children table, a table showing the names, summed scores and DL scores of the children at the selected developmental level will appear.
