  24. Why should EVAAS Matter to You?

  25. NC Professional Teaching Standards Standard I: Teachers demonstrate leadership.  Take responsibility for the progress of all students  Use data to organize, plan, and set goals  Use a variety of assessment data throughout the year to evaluate progress  Analyze data Standard IV: Teachers facilitate learning for their students.  Use data for short and long range planning Standard V: Teachers are reflective on their practice.  Collect and analyze student performance data to improve effectiveness

  26. Standard 6 for Teachers Teachers contribute to the academic success of students. The work of the teacher results in acceptable, measurable progress for students based on established performance expectations using appropriate data to demonstrate growth.

  27. NC Standards for School Executives Standard 2: Instructional Leadership Focuses his or her own and others’ attention persistently and publicly on learning and teaching by initiating and guiding conversations about instruction and student learning that are oriented towards high expectations and concrete goals; Creates processes for collecting and using student test data and other formative data from other sources for the improvement of instruction Ensures that there is an appropriate and logical alignment between the curriculum of the school and the state’s accountability program Creates processes for collecting and using student test data and other formative data from other sources for the improvement of instruction

  28. Standard 8 for School Executives Academic Achievement Leadership School executives will contribute to the academic success of students. The work of the school executive will result in acceptable, measurable progress for students based on established performance expectations using appropriate data to demonstrate growth.

  29. Benefits and Considerations for Teachers • Understand academic preparedness of students before they enter the classroom. • Monitor student progress, ensuring growth opportunities for all students. • Modify curriculum, student support, and instructional strategies to address the needs of all students. Professional Development is the Key • Culture of School • Sensitivity of Data • Finger Pointing and Blame Game • Window vs. Mirror

  30. Benefits for Principals Gain a consolidated view of student progress and teacher effectiveness, as well as the impact of instruction and performance. Bring clarity to strategic planning and function as a catalyst for conversations that must take place to ensure that all students reach their potential. Understand and leverage the strengths of effective teachers. Use the valuable resource of effective teaching to benefit as many students as possible.

  31. Achievementvs. GROWTH

  32. Student Achievement Proficient • Student is able to meet specific standards ? • Students fall into a limited range or band of achievement? • Does not account for : • change outside of that range • student ability before they came to class • “I can do it” End of School Year

  33. Student Growth Change over time Proficient Not Proficient Start of School Year End of School Year

  34. Student Growth Change over time Proficient Not Proficient Start of School Year End of School Year

  35. Student growth: • Accounts for student achievement within range or beyond that range • Compares actual to predicted student achievement • Discerns between teacher impact and student ability • Accounts for student ability before they came to class Improvement and progression

  36. Achievement vs. Growth Student Achievement: Where are we? • Highly correlated with demographic factors Student Growth: How far have we come? • Highly dependent on what happens as a result of schooling rather than on demographic factors

  37. All students deserve opportunities to make appropriate academic progress every year. There is no “one size fits all” way of educating students who enter a class at different levels of academic achievement. The EVAAS Philosophy

  38. Adjustments to instruction should be based on the students’ academic needs, not on socio-economic factors. "What teachers know and can do is the most important influence on what students learn." (National Commission on Teaching and America's Future, 1996) The EVAAS Philosophy

  39. Achievement and Poverty How is this fair?

  40. Academic Growth and Poverty No one is doomed to failure.

  41. Proficiency vs. Growth NO YES YES NO

  42. EVAAS Overview

  43. What is EVAAS? So What Does It Do?

  44. What is EVAAS?

  45. How can EVAAS help me?

  46. Education Value Added Assessment System Answers the question of how effective a schooling experience is for learners Produces reports that Predict student success Show the effects of schooling at particular schools Reveal patterns in subgroup performance EVAAS extracts data AFTER DPI collects data through the secure shell. DPI runs processes and checks for validity. Once DPI has completed their processes with the data, they present to the SBE. At this point, data is sent to EVAAS.

  47. What is value-added assessment? • An approach to analyzing student achievement data. • Follows a student’s academic progress over time. • Connects each student’s test records from grade to grade over subjects, the influence of the district, school and teacher on the rate of academic progress can be extracted via complex data analysis.
