Presentation Transcript

  1. How to Establish and Utilize Long-Term Growth Standards Gary L. Williamson, Ph.D. Director of Accountability Operations, NCDPI Academic Growth

  2. Strategies • Normative approach • Criterion Referenced approach • Judgmental approach

  3. Normative Approach to Establishing a Growth Standard

  4. Measurement of Growth

  5. Criterion-Referenced Context for Growth

  6. Measurement of Growth

  7. Judgmental Approach to Setting Growth Standards

  8. How to Modify an Empirical Growth Standard to Reflect Values • Start with the State Average Growth Curve • Change the intercept • Change the initial velocity • Change the acceleration (deceleration) • Some Combination of the above

  13. Numerical Comparison of the Four Strategies

  14. Four Ways to Depict a Growth Standard • Graph • Table • Equation • Multi-Level Model

  15. Graphical Presentation of a Growth Standard

  16. CDC Growth Charts Stature-for-Age http://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/set2/chart 07.pdf http://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/set2/chart 08.pdf

  17. Tabular Presentation of a Growth Standard(s)

  18. A Growth Standard Presented in Tabular Form

  19. Growth Standard Presented as an Equation

  20. Growth Standard Presented as an Equation(Example) Note: Use T = (Grade – 3) when applying the model

  21. Growth Standard Presented as a Multi-Level Model

  22. Multilevel Model for Unconditional Quadratic Growth Level I Level II

  23. Growth Standard Presented as a Multi-Level Model(Combined Form)

  24. Instructional Response to an Intercept • Review curriculum for K-3 • Instruction for diverse performance • Early intervention initiatives (e.g., Primary Reading Program, Smart Start, More at Four, etc.) • Realize young children are growing fast • Don’t do things that hold them back!

  25. Instructional Response to Initial Velocity • Scope and Sequence • Pace of Instruction • Long-Term view

  26. Instructional Response to Deceleration • Vertical articulation of curriculum • Alignment of instruction • Keep the end in mind
