Collecting and using data. i4see Data CollectionUsing Data
DATA COLLECTION What Data are Collected? • i4see Submissions • Beginning of year enrollment and demographic data • Student course and class data • End of year attendance, suspension, graduation and post graduation plans • Additional information including data elements such as Title I involvement, advanced placement, student mobility, etc. • Integrated Data • Migrant, ELL, Special Ed, Career & Tech Ed, as well as other related data • Multiple Measures such as NECAP, NWEA, AIMSWEB, local benchmark assessments • Post Secondary Information How is This Data Used? • To Improve Instruction!! • Equity Aid • AYP Determinations • Drop-out Analysis, Policy Analysis, etc.
Data Flow(Let’s first discuss what data and how the data gets into PerformancePLUS.) School sends data from SIS to state i4see data warehouse. Lots of validation and cleansing. 1 2 Student data and assessment data is stored in DOE secure databases. Testing Companies send assessment data to the NH DOE after signed release from LEA. Value Added Data becomes accessible to LEA via DOE Single Sign On system, that ‘passes-thru’ user to Hosted PerformancePLUS system. 4 3 DOE formats data and sends nightly updates to PerformancePLUS. • Note: Pictures are from clipart.
What Data is transferred • We transfer data nightly to the PerformancePLUSsystem • Student Demographics • Student and Teacher Roster Data • Student Assessment Data (submitted periodically) • Student Group Data (submitted annually, unless specified) • IEP Status (monthly), LEP status, Homeless Indicator, 21st CCLC program, college enrollment, attendance, and suspension
Data transfer (cont.) • Additionally, schools submit their own data • Local Assessments • Locally created student groups • Response to Instruction/Intervention Data • Schools can also enter their own curriculum and instruction maps in curriculumCONNECTOR Schools can then use this data to inform instruction…
How are districts accessing data…. • Performance Tracker • Dashboard • Reports • Students • RTI • Assessment Builder • Curriculum Connector
PerformanceTracker • Easy to access reports • Aggregate or disaggregate display of multiple assessments • National, State, Local, Class • Individualized Student Assessment Portfolios • Ability to track interventions • Track standards-based performance
AssessmentBuilder • Create assessments using the P+ bank of questions (content library) aligned to the NH standards • Create and store local questions • Enter local assessment results into Performance Tracker • Create and print bubble sheets on plain paper for scanning results; OLA, an online assessment option, is available
CurriculumCONNECTOR • Curriculum Mapping Tool • Allows schools and districts to develop and share a comprehensive, standards-based curriculum including units, lessons and assessments
Performance PLUS: individual Students Note: Data in this picture is fictitious.
EXAMPLES OF DISTRICT USES • Teachers in Gilford analyze student performance in their anticipated classes prior to student arrival in the fall. • Timberlaneprovided access to parents. • Hooksett used common assessments in math to drive instruction. • Derry performed a multi-year initiative to drive instruction based upon data -- increasing student performance for special education.
