When aligning by object, you can bulk-align learning objects to predicted derivative standards that are adopted from national standards you've already aligned to.
Note: A derivative standard is an adopted state standard that is identical or similar to an original national standard (e.g., a Common Core State Standard content standard (CCSS), a Next Generation Science Standard (NGSS) content standard, or another supported national standard.)
Open Align by Object
In the Navigation Menu, click the Align by Object link [1]. Alternatively, you can click the dashboard Start with Objects button [2].
Select Object
To align a learning object to a standard, click its Align button.
View Aligned Standards
To align to derivative standard, click the Standards tab [1], then click the Aligned tab [2].
Align Derivatives
On the Aligned tab, click a national standard's Copy Derivatives icon [1].
To view derivatives, select the View derivatives option [2].
To align to all derivative standards (both similar and identical), select the Copy to align all derivatives option [3]. To align only to derivative standards that are identical to the national standard, click the Copy to align exact derivatives option [4].
Derivative standards then move from the Predictions tab to the Aligned tab. Additionally, if tags are enabled, tags from the national standard alignment are copied to all the derivatives.
View Derivatives
In the View Derivatives panel, you can view all derivative standards. Exact derivative alignments are indicated by an Exact label [1]. To show only exact derivative alignments, click the Show exact only toggle [2].
To align to all derivative standards (both similar and identical), click the Copy All button [3]. To align only to derivative standards that are identical to the national standard, click the Copy Exact button [4].
To close the panel and return to the Standards tab, click the Cancel button [5].
