IARrific is a souped-up version of the IAR Pre-ID state tab. It does not replace the state screen, but instead creates a new student page called "IAR/ISA/DLM" linked off the student navigation in the admin portal.
The accommodations for ELA/Math/Science are hidden until the ela_accommodations/math_accommodations/science_accommodations checkboxes are checked. This way it is super-easy to search for students who have any accommodations marked.
This page will also check if you have accommodations already entered in the built in state page and blink a warning next to the "parent" accommodations checkbox that they have automatically been checked and the page needs to be submitted. Best solution I could come up with.
This page uses the IL state fields, so no trouble running the "IL PAN Pre-ID Report" or "IL DLM-AA Pre-ID Report". However, their are 4 new custom fields that are created when the plugin is installed (using the database extension group U_PARCC).
A huge amount of form validation has been added to only allow marking accommodations if all of PAN's requirements are met. These requirements are mapped out in the Student Registration/Personal Needs Profile Field Definitions.
*** You must have the 24.3 or later state reporting update installed before updating to version 2.0 of this plugin! The fields have literally changed! ***
Installation / Setup:
- Go to System - System Settings - Plugin Management Configuration.
- If you are updating from a previous version, first delete the current plugin version. Then Install the new zip file.
- Enable the Plugin (THIS WILL CREATE DATABASE EXTENSIONS ON YOUR PS SERVER).
- Set page permissions on the new IAR/ISA/DLM student screen so only those groups editing/viewing test info can access it (optional but encouraged).
- If you wish to hide the "Proctor/School Provided Administration Considerations" sections of the student page you can do so in District > Miscellaneous. They are displayed by default.
2.0 - Includes ISA/Science Accommodations for PAN! The state reporting folks changed some of the field names for ELA/math as well in 24.3. Those have been updated. Added a note about creating separate sessions for read aloud. And a bunch of other fixes to the validation scripts.
1.6 - Support for the "Enhanced Navigation" in PS 23.5. Must be on on PS version 22.5 or later to install.
1.5 - ELA Extensions accommodation added to be in sync with state reporting update 22.3.2 release on 3/23/22.
1.4 - IAR Human Signer for Test Directions accommodations added to bring in line with 20.12.1 state reporting update.
1.3 - Added new accommodations/admin considerations to align with PS state reporting update 20.11.2. Swapped out the DLM-AA indicator for the Alternative Assessment Indicator used on the IL Demographics Enrollment because that is what creates the DLM Pre-ID in SIS. Added an option in District > Miscellaneous to hide the Administration Considerations as districts may not care to track/upload those to PAN. Other minor bug fixes.
1.2 - Minor option changes to coincide with the state reporting 19.12.1 release. Minor changes to field validation to match the Spring 2020 PNP document. Now the Dual Language state field is taken into account for validation on Math Transadaptation into Spanish and Math Text-to-Speech accommodations.
1.1 - The accommodation "Spanish Transadaptation of the Mathematics Assessment" no longer requires the student to be marked LEP.
1.0 (IARrific) - Changed plugin name to IARrific. Cosmetic changes from PARCC to IAR. Removed the ESOL Participation Code field for DLM-AA.
