  3. Foundational Information

  4. Student Assessment Program for Public Schools S. 1008.22(8) Local Assessments

  5. Improving Local Assessments • For non-FCAT tested courses, districts have the responsibility to measure student learning gains in all subjects and grade levels. • By 2014-15, districts shall administer assessments that measure mastery in accordance with the state adopted course descriptions. These include: • FCAT & other state assessments • Nationally recognized standardized assessments • Industry certifications • District developed or selected EOC’s

  6. State Support for Local Assessments to Date • Dade, Duval, Hillsborough, & Polk are developing assessments for hard-to-measure content areas • Thousands of items in math, science, English / Language Arts, Spanish, and Social Studies have been reviewed • Item bank is now operational

  7. Senate Bill 736: Student Success Act

  8. SB 736 & Personnel Evaluations • Improve student learning by improving instructional and leadership practice • Provide data for school improving planning • Provide data for professional development decisions for teachers and leaders

  9. SB 736 Requires • At least 50% of the evaluation is based on student learning growth • If less than 3 years of data are available, student growth may count as 40%

  10. S. 1008.22(8) At least 50% of a performance evaluation must be based upon data and indicators of student learning growth assessed annually and measured by statewide assessments or, for subjects and grade levels not measured by statewide assessments, by district assessments as provided in s. 1008.22(8), F.S.”

  11. . S.1012.34(7)(e) Assessment Procedures & Criteria For classroom teachers of courses for which the school district has not adopted an equally appropriate measure of student learning growth, student learning growth must be measured by the growth of the classroom teacher’s students on statewide assessments… Expires July 1, 2015

  12. State Model Evaluation Metrics Instructional Practice 50% Source: SB 763, 2011

  13. Florida Performance Ratings Performance levels for summative rating must conform to the requirements of Section 1012.34, F.S. Highly Effective (HE) Effective (E) Needs Improvement (NI) Unsatisfactory (U) No “developing” for administrators.

  14. Florida’s Value Added Model

  15. Student Growth Measure? The Student Success Act requires the inclusion of student learning growth measures in teacher evaluations, and it tasks the education commissioner with identifying and implementing student growth models.

  16. The Value-Added Model (VAM) Value-added is a statistical model that uses student-level growth scores to differentiate teacher performance in the area of student learning growth.

  17. The Value-Added Model (VAM) A student’s predicted performance serves as the target. A student who meets or exceeds his target has a positive impact on the teacher’s evaluation, and a student not making his target has a negative impact.

  18. The Value-Added Model (VAM) The percent of students whose performance is equal to or higher than predicted forms the foundation for the student growth score in the evaluation system.

  19. VAMScores Students who meet their expected performance level Students who exceed their expected performance level Students who fall below their expected performance level

  20. The Value-Added Model (VAM) This overall percent is transferred to a scale, which provides a rating for the teacher at highly effective, effective, needs improvement/ developing, or unsatisfactory.
