Which Teachers and When?
• LEAs that completed Roster Verification in Spring 2013 will receive the PILOT teacher specific reporting in Nov/Dec. – Nov 11: Release to PILOT District and
PILOT School Admin – Dec 2: Release to PILOT teachers
Tab 1-Teacher who did NOT SUBMIT.•Teachers who have at least one roster, with at least one edit to the roster•BUT the teacher did NOT SUBMIT the roster/did not click on the SUBMIT button.
•The PVAAS teacher reports for these teachers will ONLY be released to the PILOT district and school admin - not directly to these teachers.(as long as the teacher has enough students on a roster AND the students each have enough longitudinal data to be included). •The district and school admins can decide IF they want the teacher to have access to the reporting.
– If yes, the district and school admin will provide that access.
– If no, there is no need/reason to give access to the teacher to this pilot report.
Tab 2- Teachers who did SUBMIT.•These are PILOT teachers who actually SUBMITTED their roster(s) in the verification process/clicked on the SUBMIT button. •As long as the teacher has enough students on a roster AND the students each have enough longitudinal data to be included, the teacher will receive PVAAS Teacher Specific Reporting. •The reports will released to their PVAAS account on Dec 2.
PSSA SCIENCE PSSA SCIENCE ASSESSMENT AS GRADE ASSESSMENT AS GRADE
LEVEL ASSESSMENTLEVEL ASSESSMENT
PSSA Science Assessment
• Teachers responsible for the content specific instruction of PSSA Science in grades 4 or 8 are eligible for a PVAAS score.
• The PSSA Science is considered an end of grade assessment - grades 4 & 8.
• The “grade/subject” that “triggers” students to take the state Science assessment in grade 4 and grade 8.
• PSSA Science grade 4 & 8 PDE Bureau of Assessment and Accountability has verified these are grade-level assessments.
HOW growth is calculated in PVAAS for grade 8
science?Longitudinal PSSA scores from Reading and Math + PSSA grade 4 Science score is used to yield a predicted score for grade 8 science - for each student in the student group.•In other words—based on what we know about this student’s testing history in grades 3-4-5-6-7, what is the expected performance for grade 8 Science? What is their predicted score? •PVAAS compares the average predicted score for the GROUP to the ACTUAL score for the group. •If the group actually performed as predicted, you have met the standard for PA Academic Growth. •If the group actually performed better than predicted, you have exceeded the standard for PA Academic Growth.• If the group actually performed less than predicted, you have not met the standard for PA Academic Growth.
Alignment : Other PVAAS Teacher Specific Questions
• If a student has Alg 1A and Alg 1B, it is the FINAL course that “triggers” the students to take the state assessment. In this case Alg 1B is the final course. The same approach is followed for Science, grades 4 & 8.
• PSSA Reading - while K, 1, 2, and 3 all contribute to the entering achievement level for students, those teachers are not included in PVAAS reporting as we do not have a grade level assessment to yield a measure of growth.
