OUTCOMES
Understand components of the gains analysis report
Review and manipulate assessment gains data for your own schools
Utilize strategies and resources to individualize instruction for students so they can meet or exceed Target Goals for the year

Performance SeriesQ. How does Performance Series measure growth?
A. It is a computer-adaptive skills diagnostic assessment, independent of enrolled grade level.
Student growth is compared to students from a normed national sample who are in the same grade level and have similar scaled scores.

Performance SeriesQ. Why would using growth be different than utilizing other test data?
A. Using the average national growth data enables educators to measure students fairly because each student is being compared to growth from other students who performed similarly to them.
Since students may begin the school year at vastly different levels, PS allows teachers to measure the progress each student makes based on their incoming ability level, rather than a ‘one size fits all’ growth target.

What is good growth?Growth Targets/Goals Growth Targets are set by observing the average growth achieved by students nationally who performed similarly in the Fall administration.
Growth Performance Categories A Growth Performance Category is assigned by comparing each student's performance with nationally observed gains data. The Growth Performance Categories are:
Category Fall to Spring Gains
Far Below bottom 15%
Below between 16-50%
Above between 51-85%
Far Above top 15%
Everyone learns at a different
rate!

Growth Targets/Goals
Growth Targets are set by observing the average growth achieved by students nationally who performed similarly in the Fall administration.
Grade 5 Math
Example: Ava Good, 5th grade student, took PS Math in fall. Shereceived a 2380. Scaled Score.For Ava to stay in the 4th Decile by spring, she would need to grow 132.70 points. No significant gain…did not meet target

Everybody is moving.
Therefore, the student must move more to
increase performance.
How does growth affect performance?
The star represents a student’s score on each test administration. His/Her National Percentile Rank stays the same, even though he/she has grown.
A 4th grade class takes the Reading assessment in fall and spring.
The two bars represent the scaled score ranges for the class, for each administration of the test.

How should we use Gains Analysis? Have your teachers use growth targets as
guides to setting academic goals for students, classes, and for monitoring progress What factors led students to meet/not meet the gains target, from the
previous testing window? What influence, if any, do I and/or teachers have over these factors?
Continuously refer back to SLOs to differentiate instruction based on student needs How can I further use growth data with SLOs to guide instruction?
Involve students in growth targets How do we ensure that students meet their goals/targets? How do we relay PS goals to students?
