  1. Student Growth Measures Condensed from ODE Teacher Training

  2. Student Growth Measures will be part of the Ohio Teacher Evaluation System OTES

  3. Who Will Be Evaluated Under OTES? • Any person who is employed under a teaching license or under a professional or permanent teacher’s certificate and who spends at least 50 percent of his or her time employed providing student instruction. This does not apply to a teacher employed as a substitute. • This usually excludes: • Speech pathologists, occupational therapists • Teachers on assignment • Nurses, psychologists, guidance counselors

  4. Where Do SGMs Fit In? Skilled

  5. Definition of Student Growth For the purposes of Ohio’s evaluation systems, student growth is defined as the change in student achievement for an individual student between two or more points in time. Excerpted from ICF International. (2011). Measuring Student Growth for Teachers in Non-Tested Grades and Subjects: A Primer (Document created for the Race to the Top Technical Assistance Network). Fairfax, VA: Author.

  6. Growth, Not Proficiency Proficiency targets set a minimum level of achievement that all students are expected to meet on their summative assessment, regardless of where the student starts. Unlike proficiency targets that set the same post-assessment score for all students, growth targets are customized for students based on their pre-assessment score or other baseline data.

  7. Example Growth Target On the science preassessment, students scored between 40 and 79. Tiered Growth Targets are set as: Pre-assessment Post-assessment Score RangeGrowth Target 40 – 49 70 or above 50 – 59 75 or above 60 – 69 80 or above 70 – 79 85 or above

  8. Categories of Teachers in OTES

  9. Student Growth MeasuresStarting 2014–15 • House Bill 555 affects the measures used and weights assigned to them for Category A teachers. • Beginning 2013−2014, Category A splits into two categories.

  10. What Are the Types of LEA Measures? • SLOs • Shared attribution • Approved vendor assessments (Category A2 only)

  11. What Are SLOs? • An SLO is: • A goal that demonstrates a teacher’s impact on student learning within a given interval of instruction • A measurable, long-term academic target written by an individual teacher or a teacher team

  12. Shared Attribution • Shared attribution is a collective measure. • The district determines which measure of shared attribution it would like to use. • Shared attribution could be: • A building or district value-added score • Recommended if available • Building team composite value-added score (e.g., the fifth-grade VAM score or the middle school reading team’s combined VAM score) • Building-level or district-level SLO

  13. Student Growth MeasuresStarting in 2014–15 LEA Measures: SLOs Shared Attribution Vendor Assessments (for Category A2 teachers only)

  14. District Plan Example

  15. Student Growth Measure Scoring • The district will submit the district plan in the Electronic Teacher and Principal Evaluation System (eTPES). • The plan will provide percentages attributed to types of student growth measures according to the three categories of teachers. • Designated administrators from the district will enter teacher scores into eTPES. • Provides a consistent process. • Minimizes burden on district.

  16. Entering Student Growth Measure Scores per Teacher An electronic worksheet similar to this one will be completed for each teacher.

  17. Final Student Growth Measure Score • After the individual SLO scores are input into eTPES, the system will generate a final score that incorporates scores from all student growth measures. • Teacher index score will be converted to an effectiveness rating: • Above • Expected • Below

  18. What Composes an SLO Score? • An SLO final score represents the percentage of students who met their growth targets. • The percentage of students who met the growth target then falls within a range that corresponds to one of five descriptive and numerical ratings.

  19. Recommended Timeline for SLO Implementation • Early fall: Write and submit SLOs for approval. • October: Receive feedback on the SLO and, if necessary, revise. • From approval to April: Gather evidence of student progress. • By May 1: Complete final submission form, and meet with the evaluator to discuss the final review and scoring of the SLO.

  20. Introduction to Student Learning Objectives (SLOs)

  21. What Are SLOs? • An SLO is: • A goal that demonstrates a teacher’s impact on student learning within a given interval of instruction • A measurable, long-term academic target written by an individual teacher or a teacher team

  22. How Many SLOs Are Required in Ohio? • ODE requires a minimum of two SLOs for teachers using SLOs as a growth measure. • ODE recommends teachers create 2–4 SLOs that are representative of their schedule. • Science teacher with four sections of biology and two sections of life science: Because the majority of her students are in biology, she might write two SLOs covering biology content classes and one for the life science content. • Elementary teacher in Grade 2: Because most elementary schools focus on reading and mathematics, he may write one reading SLO and one math SLO.

  23. SLO Evaluation Cycle

  24. The SLO Development Process STEP 1:Gather and review available data. STEP 2:Determine the interval of instruction, and identify the content. . STEP 3: Choose assessments and set the growth targets. STEP 4: Submit your SLO and prepare for review and approval. • STEP 5: Monitor and prepare for SLO rating and discussion.

  25. High-Quality SLOs Include or Address the Following Criteria: • Baseline and trend data • Student population • Interval of instruction • Standards and content • Assessment(s) • Growth target(s) • Rationale for growth target(s) 25

  26. Online Modules • As an additional resource, two online training modules are available that recap the information presented today and provide additional information on using your own data within SLOs. • Module 5A and Module 5B • http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Teaching/Educator-Evaluation-System/Ohio-s-Teacher-Evaluation-System/Student-Growth-Measures/Student-Learning-Objective-Examples
