The standards based reports give the teacher the ability to see where the specific weakness or strengths of their students may be. With this information a teacher can focus on specific lesson plan to improve all students areas of weaknesses and also understand where the teachers strengths may lie in their teaching practices. The information also helps the teacher to determine the differing levels of their students, understanding which students may need more practice in an area or which students are ready to perform at a higher level. The teacher can also check with the students to see if the lesson or question was not understood by the class because of differing vocabulary terms.
