Peter Hendry: CEM Consultant Using CEM Data in Practice:Feedback from CEM Secondary Assessments Glasgow Conference 13th Feb 2013 Peter.Hendry@cem.dur.ac.uk Secondary@cem.dur.ac.uk
Assessment for Excellence: 2 systems • S1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS): • A Test of Developed Ability at start of S1 or S2 • 4 sections: Vocabulary, Maths, Non-Verbal and Skills (Proof Reading, and Perceptual speed and accuracy • Computer adaptive* or paper-based • Any time Term 1 + catch ups • Value Added measures to SOSCA and to Scottish Qualifications • S2 Curriculum-based Assessments (SOSCA): • A curriculum assessment of knowledge, skills and understandingat end of S2 • Assesses what has been taught in the classroom • Covers, Maths, Science, Reading (English) • Computer adaptive* • Four week assessment windowmid April to mid May + catch ups • Value Added measures from PIPs, InCAS and MidYIS and to Scottish Qualifications
AfE: key elements • School and students’ test performances are compared to a nationally representative sample • Assessment data from the tests provides school and pupil datato inform teaching and learning • ‘Predictive’ data indicates futurepotential performanceto SQ, and will to National 4 and 5, to inform target setting and subsequent monitoring • ‘Value-added data’ provides measures of relative performanceat SQ (and will for National 4 and 5) and SOSCA from earlier baselines to inform self-evaluation
AfE Feedback: MidYIS and SOSCA Assessment Feedback: • Standardised score system: 50-150, mean 100, SD 15 • School data including component averages and band profiles (historical and current) • Pupil data in the form of spreadsheets and Individual Pupil Records (IPRs)
AfE Feedback: MidYIS and SOSCA ‘Predictions’ Feedback: • Currently to S2 SOSCA from S1/S2 baseline (MidYIS) and to SQ from MidYIS and SOSCA ‘Value-Added’ Feedback: • To SQ from curriculum baseline (SOSCA), and from S1/S2 baseline (MidYIS) • To S2 curriculum assessment (SOSCA) from P7 baseline (PIPS or InCAS) and/or S1/S2 baseline (MidYIS)

Predictions Feedback • Currently available to Standard Grade from AfE baselines • In the future to National 4 & 5 Qualifications from AfE baselines • Also to AfE S2 curriculum (SOSCA) from S1 and/or S2 baseline (MidYIS) • Includes Chances Graphs

Predictions: Chances Graphs 50% chance of a grade 2 – the most likely single grade. 50% chance of a different grade Point Prediction =1.8 Grade Prediction = 2 Chances Graphs based on Pupil’s SOSCA Test Score
Not a label for life...just another piece of information • The Chances graphs show that, from almost any baseline score, students come up with almost any grade - - -there are just different probabilities for each grade depending on the baseline score. • In working with students these graphs are more useful than a single predicted or target grade • Chances graphs show what can be achieved: • By students of similar ability • By students with lower baseline scores
Latest information as at 13 Feb 2102 • Replacing SG with Nat 4 & 5 predictions: CEM statisticians have put together a proposal. • This has been looked at by colleagues in Scottish Authorities. • The CEM Technical team have now published the new predictive data. • This data is now available on the CEM secondary+ website alongside the existing SG predictive data
