NWEA’s Vision:
A world in which education is kid-centric, relying on accurate and comprehensive data to inform each child’s optimal learning path.
Partnering to help all kids learn

Number (between 110-300) where your child is performing consistently
What Is A “RIT Score?”
It’s their “Instructional Level” score
It can be called their “Ready To Learn Score”
It is NOT a score of “Mastery” or “Proficiency”
![Page 7: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SLO, DPI and MAP, Oh MY!
Can MAP be used as the District-Adopted
Standardized Assessment for SLO Development?
“MAP would be considered appropriate (e.g., as a district assessment or as evidence of an SLO).
Within our guidance, we would simply ask local staff to determine if they want to use MAP for summative evaluation purposes, when they likely originally purchased it for formative purposes.”

NOT an Autopsy

Using MAP As anSLO Evidence Source
![Page 10: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Evidence Sources
• MAP Data can be the “Evidence Source” according to the DPI SLO Process Guide.
• Assessments utilized for SLO Development need to be “valid, reliable, fair and unbiased for all students/ target population.”
• Progress (needs to be) “continuously monitored and an appropriate amount of evidence can be collected in time for use in final scoring conference.”

How do we GET there?
![Page 14: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do we GET there?

Norms/Growth Review
NWEA offers many resources and calculators on our website:
http://www.nwea.org/support/article/norms-study-resources
![Page 16: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
- NWEA tests around 8 million students each
year, and re-norms the results every three* years. - The norm study communicates “status” norms (where each student is in relation to his/her peers).
Norms/Growth Review
![Page 17: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
- The norm study also communicates “growth” norms, based on the starting RIT for each individual student.
- Many NWEA partner schools refer to that as a growth TARGET for a student, class, grade level, school or district.
- We report the growth we observe for each RIT starting point in each grade level. We usually refer to that as PROJECTED/TYPICAL growth.

Using BOTH Status & Growth Norms to Inform
![Page 19: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Norms DON’T Control:
Norms don’t control for factors “outside a
teacher’s control,” such as:
- Special Education Status
- SES or Poverty Status
- Norms can/should be used to INFORM, but they are not definitive statements.
![Page 20: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Need forCONTEXT
Context helps set goals that are fair and realistic for teachers, and keep student learning at the forefront.
![Page 21: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Need forCONTEXT
Historical Context
Similar Student Context
Classroom/School Context
Goal Context
“How much growth have my students previously shown? What was the prior achievement level of my students?”
“How much growth do SIMILAR students show?”
“Do the students in my classroom/school have similar characteristics that may influence how much growth they show?”
“Is this a SAFETY goal or a STRETCH goal?”
![Page 22: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Digging Deeper intoStatus/Growth Norms
![Page 23: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Status Norms
What do they do?Status Norms inform us how the growth for a grade level of students within a school compares to the growth of other groups of students in that same grade level across the country.
QUESTION – How does the status placement of my group of 4th graders in math compare to the status/percentile of other groups of 4th graders in schools across the country
What does it tell you?Provides a national context for the achievement of a grade
(with the 50th percentile representing average achievement)EXAMPLE—If your 4th graders have an average score of 205.8 in math in the
fall, these students would be at the 72nd percentile compared to other groups of 4th graders in schools across the country.
![Page 24: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Where Can We FIND This?
![Page 25: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Introducing the School Norms Calculator
This Excel document has many formulas embedded in the document which help you customize the norms and make the norms work for you.
Make sure you “Enable Macros” in your Excel preferences.
![Page 26: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Introducing the School Norms Calculator
When you return to your office, and forget how to use the School Norms Calculator…
Please know that the “User Guide” is located at the bottom of the calculator.
The “User Guide” will help you remember what we discussed today.
![Page 27: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
This Calculator Can Provide Growth Percentile Information for Individual Grades
Within Schools/Districts
![Page 28: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Same Calculator Will Provide PERCENTILE Ranks for Grade Levels
Within Schools

Benefits & Considerations
- Growth reflects changes or improvements over the measured period
- Places growth into a context of grades across the country
- Considers starting achievement level for students at the beginning of the year
- Can set future growth goals based on prior data
Benefits
- Does not consider other unique class or school factors (ex. High percentage of low-SES students)
- Norming information is at the grade level, not the class
Considerations
![Page 30: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Benefits & Considerations
– Can quickly see how your grade levels compare to other grade levels across the country
– Can identify grade levels where extra support may be needed
– Can use these data to set realistic goals for grade-level performance by the end of the year
Benefits
– Norming information is at the grade level not the class level
– Does not consider other unique class or school factors (ex. High percentage of low-SES students)
Considerations

School Norms Calculator Activity
• Your computer and the Excel Document called School Norms Calculator.– Make sure you “enable macros” in Excel
• A copy of the Student Growth Summary Report
What you will need:
![Page 32: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
School Norms Calculator Activity
• Choose “Reading,” “Fall,” and “Fall to Spring.”
• Your school’s 5th grade Mean RIT was 205. Input that value in the “Grade Mean RIT Score” column for grade 5.
• What was their STATUS percentile?
• What would their STATUS percentile be if their Mean RIT was 207?
![Page 33: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
School Norms Calculator Activity
• In the Norms Calculator, choose “Math,” “Fall,” and “Fall to Spring.”
• Use the Norms Calculator to discuss a reasonable (SMART) Growth Goal. Consider what a “stretch” goal would look like for this school.
![Page 34: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Using This Process to Inform SLO Creation
• Use the NWEA Student Growth Summary Report/Calculator AND the SLO creation rubric to:
– Identify curricular areas in which you would like to see growth
– Identify RIT “Starting Points”
– Create “rigorous, attainable” RIT growth trajectories
– Identify/note the interval for mid-point check (probably your winter MAP window).

Their Projected RIT - A Student-based SLO
![Page 36: Partnering to help all kids learn](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020721/56813119550346895d9779c3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Students who MEET or EXCEEDTheir Projected RIT
What is This?
What does this TELL You?
The PERCENTAGE of students who meet or exceed their individualized growth projection (based on starting RIT, grade & subject).
What QUESTION does this answer? “Of the 20, 4th grade students in a teacher’s classroom, what percentage of these students met or exceeded their fall to spring growth projection?
This provides an indicator of how many students appear to be making reasonable progress between two test events (fall-spring, spring-spring, fall-fall). Normal percentage is between 50% and 55%.
Example “11 of the 20 (55%), of the 4th grade students met or exceeded their growth targets.
