Today’s Agenda
• What is value-added assessment?– Annual assessments: dominant but flawed– Value-added assessment: the missing piece
• How can value-added data drive school performance?
– What ECF has done in Tennessee
![Page 3: Today’s Agenda](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020423/5681388c550346895da03b70/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Core Issue
• We all say we want great schools – but how do we define “great”?
• Two assessment models – two different answers– Annual Assessment: TCAP– Value-Added Assessment: TVAAS
![Page 4: Today’s Agenda](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020423/5681388c550346895da03b70/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Annual Assessment: TCAP
• TCAP: a measure of grade-level proficiency– Important information to have– Best-known, most widely reported– Considered the most important measure of
school quality by the public
![Page 5: Today’s Agenda](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020423/5681388c550346895da03b70/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Annual Assessment: TCAP
• Issues with annual assessments– Correlation with poverty – 6 year span of
preparedness entering kindergarten (Kennewick)– Cut scores– Do not account for rate of growth
• Below grade level• Above grade level
• Annual assessments measure what the child brings to the school, not what the school brings to the child

The Value-Added Assessment: TVAAS
• TVAAS: a measure of the rate of academic growth– Unique student IDs allow the capture and
tracking of individual student data– Progress measured against each individual
student’s past performance– Aggregated data shows the effectiveness of
teachers and schools

The Value-Added Assessment: TVAAS• Benefits of Value-Added Assessment
– No correlation with poverty– Applicable to all students – special ed, ESL– Eliminates the “bubble effect”– Demonstrates the rate of growth– Identifies problems before it’s too late
• Value-added assessments show what the school brings to the child

The Ideal: TCAP and TVAAS Combined

Applications of Value-Added Data
• Challenges– Virtually unknown among the public– Can be hard to grasp– Can be hard to interpret– Goes against preconceptions
• The Tennessee Project - ECF– Awareness– Access– Applications
