What do Mastery, Near Mastery, and Emerging mean in Derivita Analytics?

Learn how Derivita labels student outcomes for a given standard.

For each assignment, Derivita looks at the questions that are tagged to a specific standard. A student’s score for that standard is based on the points earned out of the total points possible across those tagged questions.

Example: A student answers four questions tagged with the given standard, earning a total of 7 points out of 10 points possible. So their score for that standard is 0.70.

That score is then mapped into a performance band. Default outcome thresholds are:

Score Range Outcome Label
0.90–1.00 Mastery
0.80–0.89 Near Mastery
0.00–0.79 Emerging

Note: Districts can configure these thresholds to align with their grading practices or state expectations. If your district has customized settings, outcomes may look different from the defaults above.
