This workshop and presentation introduces and explains the Longitudinal Study created by Dr. Elaine Zseller and its application for predicting targets for Regents Exams for use with Student Learning Objectives.  Uncovered in the presentation is the methods used to create the predictions, considerations, how schools/districts will be able to access this information in the Instructional Data Warehouse and how to create the actual SLO and rosters.

This is a sample of the file that can be created for a teacher that would include all his or her students, the baseline assessments and the Final Projected Score for Global Studies that would be used as the individual students' targets.  This file is easily created through the Instructional Data Warehouse, Public Folders, and then the SLO - Longitudinal Folder.  A spreadsheet is provided in Excel by teacher and allowing for sorting and manipulating to easily provide the data for the teacher's use in the Roster related to the Student Learning Objective.

College Tracking Reports are available through the IDW.  This presentation explores the reports available and the levels of detail associated with each report.  Exploring these reports provides information regarding students' intentions for post graduate study and where they actually enrolled.  It gives students' history of enrollment and degrees earned.  The user can explore where students are most likely to attend and can uncover the students with unknown information that might need further investigation.

In this presentation, IDW reports were discussed that may be particularly helpful to guidance counselors.  These include:  Student Assessment Scores, Child Assessment Profile, Regents Maximum Scores and the Advanced Placement DW Summary Report. 

This solution will mean that baseline data for courses ending in a Regents exam and the summative assessment target will be provided by the Instructional Data Warehouse for your SLO use. The presentation includes the background information on the creation of the equations used to set the individualized targets based on a student's prior data. 

Right now, your teachers can access their current student's assessment information using the ChAP Report.  This presentation provides the steps that can be taken.  The WASA (Wrong Answer Summary Analysis) Report gives secondary teachers powerful information regarding student performance on Regents exams.  Using the information provided, teachers can explore their own students' responses to inform instruction and curriculum.  Finally, all new, is the Teacher Interface Gap Report. This report will be in table form and each teacher can have direct access to their own students' performance on the 2013 assessments.

The capabilities of this report allows you to compare your district 3-8 ELA and Math results to the county and other Nassau districts.  The presentation guides you through the report options and displays types of reports that can be explored.  Each graph has an accompanying table which is accessed as you "page down."  You can choose to compare to the county benchmark and up to 5 different districts.  The comparison options include % Proficient, Mean Scale Score, % Level 1, and % Level 1 and Level 2.  This report will be released very shortly.

These charts provide the ELA Reading and Writing Subgroup Maximum points possible and the state average.  In math, three domains are named which are the major emphasis of the grade level.  The Subgroup Maximum points possible and the state average are given for each.  This information is contained on the ISR's which is the report produced for parents.
