Editor's Notes
Materials : Tables 4, 10 and 16 from School Growth Study - Workbook pp. 19-20 Facilitator Note: A copy of the full report is available to participants. However, they must request it from NWEA by emailing training@nwea.org. Key Idea: The two tables are part of the NWEA Research Report: Study of growth index performance by school. They show us school growth for the areas of reading and mathematics from fall to spring. Talking Points: The highlighted bars on each table show us the percentage of students meeting or exceeding their growth targets in schools performing at: 10th percentile growth Examining the 10th percentile line will help us to know what schools producing the lowest growth among our clients nationally see in terms of percentage of students meeting their targets. 50th percentile growth Examining the 50th percentile line will help us to know what schools producing average growth among our clients nationally see in terms of percentage of students meeting their targets. 90th percentile growth Examining the 90th percentile line will help us to know what schools producing the highest growth among our clients nationally see in terms of percentage of students meeting their targets. Activity: Purpose – to engage participants in thinking about how this information might inform appropriate growth evaluation and goal setting At your tables discuss each of the questions below: Mr. Jones is having conferences with teachers in his school about student growth. What would the conversation sound like with a 3rd grade teacher who has 60% of her students meeting or exceeding their growth targets in mathematics? Would it be appropriate for a 7th grade team in a school to celebrate the fact that 65% of their students met or exceeded their reading targets? Why or why not? Talking Points for whole group debrief: Her students are growing at a rate that is commensurate with 70 percentile growth. These folks are performing at the 95th percentile for growth, and they teach 7th graders! Give them a party!
