  2. Overview 1. Brief overview of Michigan’s P-20 initiative 2. What’s fair game? So much data, so many ways to use it! 3. Michigan’s Career and College Ready Standards • Why the new cut scores on the state assessments? • How do these modifications better gauge overall student progress? 4. Research to support these changes • Michigan Collaborative for Educational Research • Work product review • Preliminary study items • College Enrollment and Persistence Reports 5. Questions and Answers Venessa Keesler KeeslerV@michigan.gov Thomas Howell HowellT@michigan.gov Special Thanks to our Data Portal Partners: Macomb ISD, Calhoun ISD, Shiawassee RESD Education Data Portal Site: www.michigan.gov/mischooldata OR www.mischooldata.org

  6. Career and College Ready in MI • Michigan implemented new career- and college-ready cut scores for the 2011-2012 school year. • The “proficient” cut score now indicates that a student is on track for career- and college-readiness in the 11th grade, and on track for proficiency in the next grade in grades 3-9. • Gives schools, students and parents a more accurate picture of the preparation of their students for postsecondary endeavors.

  7. What are the results? • Reading proficiency rates: 61-69% (depending on grade) *Reading proficiency rates previously ranged from mid-80s to the 90s • Math proficiency rates: 29-40% *Math proficiency rates previously ranged from 50-70% • Science proficiency rates: 15-17% • Social studies: 28% • Writing: 45-47% Michigan has substantial improvements to make for all students to be on track for career- and college-readiness.

  8. Michigan’s Postsecondary Transitions • Michigan Merit Curriculum • New postsecondary data • Research partnership to help us determine the effectiveness of this policy What are the postsecondary outcomes of students in Michigan? How have they changed over time? How have they been impacted by policy changes (like the Michigan Merit Curriculum)?

  9. Michigan Consortium for Educational Research (MCER) • Five year, $6 million partnership between the University of Michigan, Michigan State University, the Michigan Department of Education and the Center for Educational Performance and Information. • Purpose: to study the Michigan Merit Curriculum and the Michigan Promise Scholarship • Activities: • Linking all of Michigan’s K-12 data together longitudinally; produced the first longitudinally linked research file in Michigan. • Tying K-12 data to postsecondary data (National Student Clearinghouse; Michigan-specific data).

  10. A note on research partnerships • SEA partnerships with external researchers at IHEs can DRAMATICALLY increase research capacity for the SEA • However—like all relationships—these relationships take work! • A few challenges: • Data still not “researcher-ready” • Creating a longitudinal file for research….not super easy! • Lots of “special requests” • Linking external data sources to our UICs

  11. Postsecondary Enrollment • Percentage of ninth graders who graduate on-time and enroll in postsecondary education within four months of graduation from high school. • Results for the 2008 cohort • 49% -- go to postsecondary education • 29% --four year college • 23% --two year college • Only 6% go out of state

  12. How are those rates different by demographics? • More females enrolling than males (55% vs 44%) • 10% of special education students • 40% of limited English proficient students • 35% of economically disadvantaged students • Between 31% (Hispanics) and 68% (Asians) of the racial/ethnic groups

  13. By student achievement? • Quartiles of achievement scores in 11th grade • What are the enrollment rates by quartile? (49%=average rate) • Highest quartile: 86% • 3rd quartile: 73% • 2nd quartile: 53% • Lowest quartile: 28%

  14. Student Persistence in Postsecondary Education • 2007 cohort statistics • Defined as remaining in PSE on year after on-time graduation • Average persistence rate (any postsecondary institution): 35%

  15. Persistence by Demographics • Females have higher persistence rates than males (39% vs. 30%) • 5% of students with disabilities • 28% limited English proficient students • 21% economically disadvantaged students • Between 56% (Asian) and 19% (Hispanic) students

  16. Persistence by student achievement? • Average persistence rate: 35% • Highest quartile: 72% • Second quartile: 51% • Third quartile: 33% • Lowest quartile: 15%

  17. Takeaways (so far) • Michigan has more of a persistence problem than an enrollment problem (in terms of postsecondary education) • We have significant challenges with our lowest achieving students—suggests a stronger focus on achievement gaps (both in K-12 and beyond) • ESEA Flexibility application offers us opportunity for this focus
