Interpreting Science MCA-III Test Scores –Overall scale scores (G01-99) –Scale scores match with the ALD’s Strand, Sub-Strand levels –Reported using a different scale score system (1-9) –Standard Deviation –Standard Error of the Mean= SD/√n education.state.mn.us 13 Putting it all together

education.state.mn.us 14 Benchmark Analysis

All data is relative to the state data Watch the dotted lines – different colors may overlap in their standard deviation Keep an eye on the CLES metric when comparing schools education.state.mn.us 15 CAUTION!!! P-values and standard deviation

Food for Thought Save time for evaluation of data, individually and as a team What inferences can and cannot be made from results? Formative vs. Summative strengths –What are you going to do with this data
