If you're new to Boom Learning, one of the most valuable features you'll discover is reporting. Reports help you quickly see student progress, identify learning gaps, track mastery, and gather the data you need for instructional decisions. For special education teachers or SLPs, who need reliable data for IEPs, Boom's reporting tools can be a major time-saver.
For more information about Reports check out this article: Student Data Reports (Grades and Progress)
This guide explains how to export and print report data based on the two most common reporting needs:
- Reports for a class or group of students
- Reports for individual students
Exports generate a downloadable CSV file that can be opened in Excel or Google Sheets for additional analysis and documentation.
