Wondering why a student who gets a high score on Reading Comprehension still gets assignments?

This question comes up now and again. Why did my student get assigned all of the work in Skills Tutor's Reading Comprehension even though he got a 90% on the pretest?  The answer? Reading Comprehension LL, A, B and C are not prescriptive. Neither are Reading Vocabluary A, B and C. Everything else in Skills Tutor is.  In these two modules the pretests result in an all or nothing situation; either you take the pretest and get assigned everything, or you can set it up that you take the pretest and get nothing except the lessons that the teacher chooses.

If you want to use the Reading Comprehension pretests and not have them generate an assignment of all of the activities, you must uncheck the option that states that pretests can assign work based on the student's performance.  This is the first year for this option, and we have found it to be especially useful for Reading Comprehension.

If you have made the assignment without unchecking this option, and would like to change this effect, go to Class Properties, click on Modify Assignment, and uncheck the option to give work based on pretest performance. Save the change by clicking  on Done, and you're in business.
