1 Partnering to help all kids learn Wisconsin Student Learning Objectives (SLOs)

2 Today’s Agenda - What is the SLO purpose? - Who does the SLO process Involve? - What are SLOs? - How can Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) data help in the creation & evaluation of SLOs? - What is the SLO timeline?

3 Evaluation Percentage Effective Practice Student Outcomes

4 Wisconsin DPI Website SLOs are: - “...detailed, measurable goals for student academic growth...” - “...developed collaboratively by educators and their supervisors.” - “intended to provide educators with opportunities to demonstrate their students’ academic growth.”

5 Wisconsin DPI Website Sources of Evidence: - “...standardized (common) assessments” - “end of course exams” - “performance demonstrations (portfolios)”

6 Wisconsin DPI Website Can MAP be used as the District-Adopted Standardized Assessment? “DPI has convened a Measurement Work Group.” “MAP would be considered appropriate (e.g., as a district assessment or as evidence of an SLO). Within our guidance, we would simply ask local staff to determine if they want to use MAP for summative evaluation purposes, when they likely originally purchased it for formative purposes.”

7 Using MAP Data to Develop Student Learning Objectives SLOs

8 Norms/Growth Primmer NWEA offers many resources and calculators on our website: http://www.nwea.org/support/article/norms-study- resources http://www.nwea.org/support/article/norms-study- resources

9 Norms/Growth Primmer - NWEA tests around 8 million students each year, and re-norms the results every three* years. - The norm study communicates “status” norms (where each student is in relation to his/her peers).

10 Norms/Growth Primmer - The norm study also communicates “growth” norms, based on the starting RIT for each individual student. - Many NWEA partner schools refer to that as a growth TARGET for a student, class, grade level, school or district. - We report the growth we observe for each RIT starting point in each grade level. We usually refer to that as PROJECTED/TYPICAL growth. 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 Grade 3 Math Fall-Spring * NOT actual growth numbers 6 4 8 9 5 4 6 2*

11 Where Does an SLO START? Should a teacher/teac her group choose the growth targets/subje ct area for the SLO? OR Should an administrator /evaluator choose the growth targets/subje ct area for the SLO?

12 Quality SLOs “Quality SLOs result when educators analyze data in a way that identifies the unique needs of their student population.”

13 Fall SLO Conference Begin with the goal in mind. - What improvement do you want to see in each classroom, or group of classrooms?

14 The Need for CONTEXT Historical Context Similar Student Context Classroom/School Context Goal Context “How much growth of my students previously shown? What was the prior achievement level of my students?” “How much growth do SIMILAR students show?” “Do the students in my classroom/school have similar characteristics that may influence how much growth they show?” “Is this a SAFETY goal or a STRETCH goal?”

15 The Need for CONTEXT Context helps set goals that are fair and realistic for teachers, and keep student learning at the forefront.

16 Fall SLO Conference What data do you need to use as a starting point? - What MAP report will give you that data? Do you want to see: - GLOBAL RIT growth in math? - GLOBAL RIT growth in reading? - Strand-specific growth is problematic.

17 “I’ve looked at the historical math data from our fourth grade. We struggle here. I want to set a growth goal for our fourth grade teachers that a minimum of 45% of their students will meet or exceed their math RIT growth goal from fall to spring.” The nationwide average is 50%-55% of students meet/exceed projected/typical growth.

18 Getting There Order Reports Client-Server MAP Web-Based MAP

19 Student Growth Summary Report

20 Collaborative SLO Goal Setting ASG PROJECTION Report

21 Starting Point “How many of your 17 students should meet or exceed their projected/typical RIT growth in (math/reading/language/science) from fall to spring?” ALL of them! 40% of them (7 or 8) 55% of them!

22 Evaluation of Growth Goals

24 Evaluation of Growth Goals

25 The “Numbers” Following Fall to Spring Testing Summary of Students with Growth Projection Available and Valid Beginning and Ending Term Scores Count of Students who Met or Exceeded their Projected RIT Overall Percentage of Projected RIT Met or Exceeded Count of Students with Growth Projection Available and Valid Fall 20XX-20XX Test Scores Fall 20XX-20XX Mean RIT Fall 20XX-20XX Median RIT Percentage of Students who Met or Exceeded their Projected RIT Fall 20XX-20XX Standard Deviation 14 4 28.0% 2.5% 14 195.2 197 15.8

26 The Objective “45% of the students in Ms. Smith’s fourth grade class will meet or exceed their target growth indicated in their fall MAP assessment to their spring MAP assessment.”

27 Baseline Data & Rationale “Following analyzation of longitudinal data of MAP growth in math, we discovered that the trend was that fewer than 30% of the students in grade four met or exceeded their MAP typical growth from fall to spring.”

28 Norms DON’T Control: Norms don’t control for factors “outside a teacher’s control,” such as: -Special Education Status -SES or Poverty Status -Norms can/should be used to INFORM, but they are not definitive statements.
