Examples of Reports
Reports for Groups of Students
1.Student Details Report
This report summarises the personal and demographic details of students in a chosen cohort and provides a list of completed assessments.
2.Assessment Status (Quick) Report
This report summarises the assessment status of students in a selected cohort during an assessment period.
3.Assessment Status (Detailed) Report
This report summarises the assessment status of students in a selected cohort during an assessment period. It also provides details of the assessment status of each individual student in the cohort.
4.AusVELS by Student Report
This report presents the AusVELS progression points achieved by a cohort of students in each mode of the AusVELS. The equivalent EOI scale score is also provided.
5.Group Comparison Report
This report shows the percentage of students in two cohorts achieving the specified AusVELS progression points for a mode. Any group of students in the same year level can be compared.

Scoring in the Interview
Each question or task in the English Online Interview has a rubric that is used to record student responses. Psychometric analysis was used in the development and trialling of the Interview to establish the relative difficulty of each question in comparison to all the other questions, and a score assigned to indicate the difficulty of each question. Easy items have the lowest scale scores and as items become more difficult their scale score increases. The standard units or scale scores represent a standard increase in difficulty regardless of where this difference is on the scale.
Reports in the English Online Interview are based on the EOI Scale score. When Victorian schools were using the VELS, the EOI Scale score was converted to an indicative VELS level. From 2013 the EOI Scale score will be converted to the AusVELS achievement standards but where possible the reports will show both the EOI Scale score and the indicative AusVELS level. As the questions in the English Online interview have not changed and reporting has always being based on the EOI Scale score, it is possible to continue to access and use historical data from the Interview.
When a student’s response is entered into the English Online Interview, three processes occur:
- the scores for the individual questions are aggregated;
- the total score is converted to a English Online Interview (EOI) Scale score; and
- the EOI Scale score is converted to an indicative AusVELS level (previously a VELS level).
It is not possible to manually score the questions in the Interview as questions from a range of tasks are used to provide the total score points for each dimension.
Comparing scores from previous years
It should be recognised that the achievement standards in the English domain are different between VELS and AusVELS.
This table shows the EOI Scale Score conversion to AusVELS scores.
