PPT Presentation Template:
This PPT includes all slides to present
a district or building level overview of
PVAAS. This was used with a districtwide K-12 faculty group in a small
school district, where one grade level
represented one building versus
multiple buildings on a district level
report.

What Is
PVAAS?
PVAAS IS:
• Analysis of existing assessment data
– Longitudinal PSSA scores in available
content areas
• Math, Reading, Science, Writing
– Provides reliable estimates
• A measure of a school’s effectiveness
• Critical Relationship:
Growth Data vs. Achievement Data
PVAAS:
•
Is not another test
•
Is not a comparison of single test
scores
•
Critical concept:
Does not provide a measure of
growth for an individual student

The PSSA-PVAAS Scatter Plots visually display the
following data from the statewide distribution of PSSA
results for the most current school year.

Achievement
• The mean predicted performance of the cohort.
• The actual mean performance of all students in the state is
displayed for reference

Growth
• School Effect ≈ Observed Mean – Predicted Mean
• Standardized School Effect = School Effect relative to its
error – displays degree of confidence

Student Projections
Wouldn’t it be great to
know the likelihood that a
student will be proficient
on a future PSSA?
Student Projection Methodology



A separate longitudinal modeling process
focused on the performance scores of
individual students.
The model uses all of the available data (both
math and reading) to project future PSSA
performances in Math, Reading, Science and
Writing.
Projections can be calculated for an individual
student or groups of students.
How do I know that the projection
is accurate?

The projection is precise, and is created using a model
that has been reviewed and approved by four different
peer review panels and the GAO (US Government
Accountability Office).

The most recent 2008 growth model proposal to USDOE
includes information regarding the statistical model and
projection reliability study.
(http://www.ed.gov/admins/lead/account/growthmodel/pa/index.html)

Recent studies have confirmed that the PVAAS
projections (even as far as 3 years into the future) are
more reliable at looking at the future performance of a
student than the most recent PSSA score.

What is it?
• Report that summarizes the numbers and
percents of students in likelihood ranges of
performing at the proficient level on a future
PSSA exam.
How might a school use this report?
• Intervention Planning
• Resource Allocation
• Strategic Planning
• School Improvement Planning
Cautions
• This report provides another indicator about
likelihood of future performance.

Wouldn’t it be great to know if
your students made one year’s
growth for the year of schooling
they experienced last year?
In Math and Reading (4-8 and 11)?
In Science (4, 8 and 11)?
In Writing (5, 8 and 11)?

Comparison to a State Growth Standard
The Growth Standard specifies the minimal
acceptable academic gain from grade to
grade for a cohort of students.
The use of a Growth Standard creates the
possibility that ALL schools can demonstrate
appropriate growth.
PVAAS Value-Added
Growth Descriptors – Grade 4 – 8
Math and Reading
The PA Growth Standard specifies the minimal acceptable
academic gain from grade to grade for a cohort of students. The
Growth Standard is met when the students in a school or district on
average maintain their relative position when compared to the 2006
statewide distribution of student scores (2006 is the base year).
Estimated mean NCE gain equal or greater than zero. There is
evidence that the school has met or exceeded the Growth
Standard. All schools can achieve this rating.
Estimated mean NCE gain less than zero by one standard error or
less. There is slight evidence that the school has not met the
Growth Standard.
Estimated mean NCE gain less than zero by between one and two
standard errors. There is moderate evidence that the school has
not met the Growth Standard.
Estimated mean NCE gain more than two standard errors less than
zero. There is significant evidence that the school has not met the
Growth Standard.


A predicted score is calculated for each
student;
Mean of predicted scores is calculated for
students in a cohort;
Mean of observed scores of students in the
cohort;
School Effect is the difference between the
Observed and the Predicted Scores.
PVAAS Predictive Analysis
1. We collect all of the individual student data that is
available for a minimum of two years.
2. All of these data are used to develop individual
student profiles.
3. PVAAS then calculates a Predicted Performance
Value based on the student profile for each
student.

PVAAS Ratings of School Effect
Remember:
School Effect  Mean of Student Scores – Mean of Predicted Scores
So, if the students perform as expected, School Effect  0.
The ratings are in terms of the expected value of 0.

Standard Error (SE) is a measure of variation in the prediction.
Writing, Science & Grade 11
Reading/Math Growth Descriptors
Progress is defined by the district or school
effect, which is a measure of the difference
between observed performance and predicted
performance.
Progress is significantly above the progress of
the average district in the state.
Progress is not detectably different from the
progress of the average district in the state.
Progress is significantly below the progress of
the average district in the state.
