  1. INDIANA STUDENT GROWTH ANALYSES 2014-2015 & BEYOND Damian W Betebenner & Adam VanIwaarden National Center for the Improvement of Educational Assessment Indianapolis, IN November 10th, 2015
  2. TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION • History of student growth in Indiana. • Analyses associated with the 2014-2015 academic year. • Analyses associated with the 2015-2016 academic year and beyond.
  3. HISTORY OF STUDENT GROWTH IN INDIANA • Started under Wes Bruce in 2008 with the Rooney Foundation. • Included the calculation of student growth percentiles and student growth projections. • Due to feedback from eld that they wanted to know in advance what their growth goal was, Indiana began providing scale score targets for typical and higher growth a year in advance. • This “rolling baseline” approach to student growth is currently implemented in the Indiana waiver. fi
  4. 2014-2015 STUDENT GROWTH IN INDIANA • This “rolling baseline” approach to student growth is currently implemented in the Indiana waiver. • Previously projections were made from the current year and used the following. • With the assessment transition, projections couldn’t be made from last year (2013-2014) to this year (2014-2015) because a new test was being implemented. • With the data available we link (equate) the current test to last year’s test and go back and create projections like we would have.

  7. CONSIDERATIONS • Model: Are we calculating exactly what is needed? In the past we delivered data les that were extensively post-processed by Indiana DOE. • Output format: Are we deliveringles/data that makes it as easy as possible for IDOE/SBOE to do their work? • Communication: What can we do to assist in the communication of the calculations/results to stakeholders in Indiana. fi fi
