Academic Data for Instructional Decisions: Secondary Level Dr. Amy Lingo Regina Hirn Project ABRI University of Louisville Project ABRI 2009
ABRI Defined • ABRI: Academic and Behavior Response to Intervention • Pilot program involving 3 districts and representing elementary, middle and high school levels • In partnership with the Kentucky Department of Education • To promote both academic and behavior responses in schools Project ABRI 2009
ABRI Process Project ABRI 2009
Where can I find academic data at the secondary school level? • State wide assessment results • Screening results • District administered standardized assessment • Teacher administered formative assessment • Teacher administered summative assessment Project ABRI 2009

Academic DataReading/Language Arts/English Project ABRI 2009
Reading/Language Arts/English • Collection • Year in Review • Screening results • Compilation • Reformat/export for interpretation • Charts • Graphs • Questioning of results Project ABRI 2009
Common Assessments (examples) • Informal Reading Inventory • Reading Assessments • PAS • MAP • GRADE • ACT • Explore/Plan
Eckwall/Shanker Reading Inventory(Can be used through Grade 9) Subtests • Phonemic Awareness • Skill(s) measured: Phonemic awareness • Sight Vocabulary; Word List • Skill(s) measured: Word recognition • Phonics; Structural Analysis • Skill(s) measured: Phonics • Oral and Silent Reading • Skill(s) measured: Reading connected text • Listening and Reading Comprehension • Skill(s) measured: Understanding connected text
Qualitative Reading Inventory • Word List • Skill(s) measured: Word recognition • Oral and Silent Reading • Skill(s) measured: Reading connected text • Listening and Reading Comprehension • Skill(s) measured: Understanding connected text
Students who Score Below Benchmark • In phonemic awareness • practice with rhyming, discriminating, blending, and segmenting • In phonics or word recognition • practice with letter/sound correspondence, blending, word families, and multisyllabic words • In reading fluency or reading connected text • practice with letter recognition, letter/sound correspondence, high frequency words, oral reading • In comprehension • practice with preparation, organization, elaboration, metacognition, and text structures,
Forming Groups Based on Assessment Data • Review data sources • Standardized measures • Curriculum-based measures • Progress monitoring • Informal information (classroom data, observations) • Identify at-risk students using data • Determine targeted areas for instruction • Students may have multiple areas of need • Consider course offerings or electives

Common Assessments • Fluency Assessments – One Minute Timings • Diagnostic Interviews • Error Analysis of student work • Benchmarking software programs • Course assessments • Credit recovery systems
Fluency Assessments • One minute timings of basic math facts • Screening tool • 40 digits correct per minute ages 9 to adult • Addition/subtraction • Multiplication/division Project ABRI 2009
Diagnostic Interviews in Mathematics • Diagnostic interviews are a means of getting in-depth information about an individual student’s knowledge and mental strategies about the concept under investigation. A student is given a problem and asked to verbalize his or her thinking at points in the process for solving the problem. Project ABRI 2009
Error Analysis of Student Work • Problem completion analysis • Think Aloud with error analysis • Conceptual vs. procedural error analysis • Steps/procedures • Prior knowledge • Connections to work, technology, science, everyday life activities Project ABRI 2009
Software Programs • Computer software programs that identify specific goals based on student responses • Example: • Determines student performance on a variety of problems identified as easy, medium and hard • Reveals student accuracy with problem types • Course programs • Programs designed to provide practice Project ABRI 2009
Students who Score Below Benchmark • In mathematics fluency • In conceptual understanding • In mathematics procedures within word problems • In application of authentic problems
