Associate Dynamic Standards to Questions
The Dynamic Standards feature allows you to easily align state standards to your questions during a
delivery session. This feature lets you choose a subset or a list of standards applicable to the lesson
you are engaging.
You can choose to be prompted with this subset before you ask each question, or you can
automatically apply all the standards in your subset to all of the questions in the lesson you are
engaging.
To associate Dynamic Standards to your questions
1. Select Engage > Lessons & Assessments.

7. Select each standard to be included in your subset.
8. Select or deselect the Prompt for Dynamic Standards and Automatically Align Selected
Dynamic Standards options at the bottom of the window.
a. Prompt for Dynamic Standards is the default setting. If you leave this option selected,
the Dynamic Standards Setup window will open with each question you ask. This
allows you to decide, upon delivering the questions, which standards to align with each
question. This option is especially useful with the Verbal Question feature.
b. If you choose Automatically Align Selected Dynamic Standards, CPS will
automatically align the standards you define in your subset with each question in your
session, and CPS will not prompt you with the Dynamic Standards Setup window.
c. You may also leave both boxes unchecked. If unchecked, CPS will not prompt you with
the Dynamic Standards Setup window, and CPS will not automatically align standards
to your questions. If you de-select both boxes, you can still select a subset of standards
and align those standards to your questions by clicking the dynamic standards button at
any time.
d. Note: If you currently have state standards aligned with your questions, you do not
need to re-select them in the Dynamic Standards Setup window. The standards you
choose in the Dynamic Standards Setup window will be aligned in addition to those
you have predefined.
