# Domain Analysis with Data Studio

> Review student performance across learning domains, clusters, and standards using Pear Assessment and imported test data in Data Studio.

The Domain Analysis report in Pear Assessment Data Studio shows how students are performing across broad learning areas (domains) and — when available — within smaller skill groups (clusters) or individual standards. Use it to identify strengths and gaps, compare performance across student groups, and guide instructional planning. This is an enterprise report available to administrators and teachers.

## Access the Report

In Pear Assessment, go to **Data Studio** → **Academic Reports** → **Domain Analysis**.

## Understand Domains, Clusters, and Standards

Domains are broad learning areas aligned to the standards you teach, grouping related skills and concepts together. Within a domain, clusters are smaller groups of related standards. Standards are the most granular level.

Not all domains include cluster- or standard-level breakdowns. Cluster and standard data appear only when those mappings are available in the test content.

## Review the Mastery Level Distribution Chart

The **Mastery Level Distribution by Test** bar chart shows how students performed across tests, broken down by mastery level. Each bar represents a domain, cluster, or standard. Hover over a bar to see exact percentages.

To explore more detailed data, you have two options:

* Click a domain bar directly to drill down into clusters or standards.
* Use the **View By** dropdown to select **Cluster** or **Standard**, then apply the domain filter at the top of the report.

This report aggregates data across multiple school years, covering both Pear Assessment tests and any external tests you have imported into the platform.

## Compare Performance Across Tests

The **Performance Across Test** table provides a flexible view of performance data that you can compare across different groups. Use the **Compare By** dropdown to select a grouping — school, teacher, class, student, race, gender, or other available demographics. Use the **Analyze By** dropdown to view results by score or by mastery level.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What Types of Tests Are Included in This Report?

The report includes both Pear Assessment tests and external tests that have been imported into the platform.

### Can I View Performance Across Multiple School Years?

Yes. The report aggregates data across multiple years, making it easier to identify long-term trends in student mastery across domains, clusters, and standards.

### Can I Filter by Student Demographics?

Yes. Use the **Compare By** dropdown to view data by school, teacher, class, student, race, gender, and other available groupings.

### What Does It Mean if Cluster or Standard Data Is Unavailable for a Domain?

Not all domains include cluster- or standard-level breakdowns. Those levels appear only when the test content includes the corresponding mappings.
