Assessment Guidelines to Measure Achievement in School Improvement Goals
Resources • DoDEA Guidance • AdvancED Assessment Rubric • Used as part of a weighted Accreditation score • All located on district weebly http://mdso.eportalnow.net/-assessment-guidelines-and-resources.html
DoDEA Guidance • Three assessments per goal (minimum) you can have more than three per goal if school chooses • All assessments must be aligned to the goal (not aligned to the intervention) • One of the assessments must be one of the subtests from the TerraNova • Two can be system-wide assessments • At least one assessment must be local/common
DoDEA Guidelines • All students must take at least one of the assessments. This is typically the local assessment b/c the TN, etc. does not include all students. This is the grade-level appropriate test. • Results from the assessments must be analyzed to determine if there is an increase in student performance. This must happen multiple times. • A baseline should be set and used to compare growth from year to year. • In addition, within the year the school should compare growth. For example, Pre, Mid, Post.
What are Local Assessments • A local assessment is something specific to the school which means it is not a DoDEA System-wide assessment. Review all the assessments available at the school and identify the assessments that align to the goal. • Non-system wide assessments should be selected from the assessments that are ALREADY IN the school. • Examples include asssessmentsin teacher support materials, end of unit assessments, alternate form assessments, etc.) • DO Use assessments available at the school • DON’T Try to create an assessment
What Are System-Wide Asssessments? • TerraNova Multiple Assessment • SRI -- 6th and 9th Grades • U.S. History EOC • PSAT
