2017-18 Student Growth Portfolio


Keely Potter, Director of Teacher Effectiveness, TDoE

§  To communicate the structural and content-specific revisions made to the 2017-18 student growth portfolios

§  To explain the purpose of the changes

§  To demonstrate how to upload and score work samples

Purpose of Webinar

4

§  Student growth portfolio models provide a holistic, meaningful picture of the value a teacher adds to his/her students using work already happening in the classroom

§  The right work –  Student centered –  Teacher developed –  Flexible assessment –  Professional learning and growth –  Peer reviewed by content specialists –  Correlated with state evaluation models

Why a student growth portfolio model?

5

§  Purposeful collection of student work organized into evidence collections that demonstrate student growth within the state standards.

§  Uses a scoring guide that includes the levels of performance for various standards.

§  Contains student work from two points in time. §  Student work at varying levels (emerging, proficient,

advanced).

What is a student growth portfolio model?

6

Purposeful sampling is the process of choosing student work artifacts for inclusion in the evidence collections as a formal part of the evaluation process.

What is purposeful sampling?

7

Student Growth Portfolio

8

§  Increase accuracy by focusing solely on the scoring of student work and then allowing the system to calculate growth scores and teacher effectiveness indicator result

§  Focus on capturing teacher feedback and reflections on student work – not just the score

§  Increase efficiency and reduce bias in sampling by focusing on scoring student work alone

Why a new process?

9

§  Fine Arts –  Visual Arts –  Music –  Dance –  Theater

§  Physical Education (K-5; 6-8 optional) §  Pre-K §  Kindergarten §  Grade 1 §  CTE – Work Based Learning (pilot) §  World Language

Student Growth Grades and Subjects

10

§  Structure of the portfolio –  Contains evidence collections – one for each domain

–  Each evidence collection contains two assessments (Point A and Point B) that assess the same GLE/CLEs

–  Each assessment has 3 differentiated samples of work (emerging, proficient, advanced) that are representative of teacher’s course load and student population (purposeful)

§  Teachers must upload a context/narrative form with each student sample indicating which domain and GLE/CLE is being assessed

Submission of the Student Samples

11

§  Scoring Rubrics –  Two levels have been added to each scoring rubric to capture growth beyond

levels 4 and 5 (except World Languages) –  Teachers must score the same GLE/CLE for both the Point A and Point B

assessments of a given evidence collection §  Consensus Scoring Process using Educopia

–  Teachers upload and then rate each student sample –  Rating consists of tagging evidence and feedback within the actual work

samples and entering scores for each sample –  Once all students are scored for a given assessment, the teacher may submit

the work for Peer Review –  Peer reviewers will also tag and score each student work sample per

assessment –  Teachers and peer reviewers will only score the student work. There is NO

calculation of student growth required by the teacher or peer reviewer.

Scoring of Submissions

12

§  Growth Score Reporting –  Once all peer reviewers have completed scoring, the

student growth score for each evidence collection will be calculated by the Educopia system

–  Then, the Teacher Effectiveness rating will be calculated across all of the student growth scores

§  Teachers will be notified when growth scores are available to view within the Educopia system

§  Growth scores will be exported to the state

Growth Scores

13

§  The difference between the Point A and Point B assessments is calculated for each student to obtain an individual student growth score

§  The average of all 3 individual growth scores is calculated

§  The average is applied towards the Growth Score ranges to determine the Growth Score (level) for the collection

Calculation of Growth Scores

§  Level 1 –  Zero or negative growth

§  Level 2 –  Less than 1 level growth

§  Level 3 –  1 level growth (but less than

2) §  Level 4

–  2 levels growth (but less than 3)

§  Level 5 –  3 or more levels of growth

14

§  The average of all evidence collection Growth Score levels is calculated

§  The average is applied towards the Teacher Effectiveness ranges to determine the Teacher Effectiveness rating for the teacher

Calculation of Teacher Effectiveness

§  Level 1 –  1.00-1.79

§  Level 2 –  1.80-2.59

§  Level 3 –  2.60-3.39

§  Level 4 –  3.40-4.19

§  Level 5 –  4.20-5.00

20

§  Language Change: –  Type 1 is now referred to as a “Group Sample” –  Type 2 is now referred to as a “Differentiated Sample”

§  Evidence collections are generically labeled to give teachers flexibility in selecting at least 3 of 4 domains.

§  Teachers must specify which domain they are submitting for a given evidence collection through the Context Form

§  Teachers must select a specific domain for each evidence collection and score the same GLE/CLEs for the Point A and Point B in that evidence collection
