CognitiveGenesis Testing Plan • Four years of ITBS/ITED and CogAT testing • Three years of Student, Parent, Teacher, and Administrator surveys • This report – 3rd year of testing • Results for year 3 • Cross-sectional results - 2008 • Compare differences between grades – different students • Longitudinal results – 2006-2008 • Compare change between grades – same students
Types of Scores • Achievement Scores (ITBS / ITED) • National Percentile Rank (PR) • Range from 1 to 99 – not used for statistical comparisons • Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) • Range from 1 to 99 • Mean: 50 SD = 21 • Standard Score (SS) • Not directly interpretable – not reported separately • Predicted Standard Score (PSS) • Not directly interpretable - not reported separately • Predicted Standard Score Difference (PSSD = SS - PSS) • Positive or Negative (Above or Below Predicted) • Ability Score (CogAT) • Standard Age Score (SAS) • Mean: 100 SD = 16
CognitiveGenesisUnited States ResultsSummary • Positive Outcomes • Above average in achievement • Above average in ability • Above prediction in achievement • Above average and above prediction in all subjects • Above average and above prediction for all grade levels • Above average for all school sizes • Above prediction at all ability levels • Yearly gains in achievement are greater than expected for continuing students • Yearly gains in ability are greater than expected for continuing students • Yearly gains in ability are greater than gains in achievement • Yearly gains in achievement and ability are greater for more years in an SDA school • Areas for Investigation • Math Computation • Social Studies • Grade 5 and possibly grade 4
