reports for the WV General Summative Assessment, as well as diagnostic and interim assessments. This document provides a static view of the reports with annotations to explain the different features that are available. The AIR Online Reporting System is an interactive online reporting platform that provides a range of reports. Reports provide aggregate score data at the state, district, school, class, and student level. Educators may examine data at multiple levels, depending on their level of access. Scale Scores for ELA and Mathematics Scale scores are the basic units of reporting on standardized tests. A scale score is a conversion of a student’s raw score on a test, or a version of the test, to a common scale that allows for a numerical comparison among students. This is necessary since there are multiple versions, or forms, of the test. For the West Virginia General Summative Assessments and the interim comprehensive assessments, these scores, which fall along a continuous vertical scale (from approximately 2000 to 3000) that increases across grade levels, can be used to illustrate students’ current level of achievement and their growth over time. When aggregated, these scores can also describe school- or district-level changes in performance on the tests and can measure gaps in achievement among different groups of students.

Achievement Level Descriptors The purpose of achievement level descriptors is to specify, in content terms, the knowledge and skills that students display at four levels of achievement. Achievement levels should serve only as a starting point for discussion about the performance of students and of groups of students. That is, the achievement levels should not be interpreted as infallible predictors of students’ futures. They must continuously be validated, and should be used only in the context of the multiple sources of information that we have about students and schools. Mathematics and ELA/Literacy Achievement Level Descriptors – Grades 3-5 Level 4 Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 The student has exceeded the achievement standard and demonstrates advanced progress toward mastery of the knowledge and skills in [content area] needed for likely success in future coursework. The student has met the achievement standard and demonstrates progress toward mastery of the knowledge and skills in [content area] needed for likely success in future coursework. The student has nearly met the achievement standard and may require further development to demonstrate the knowledge and skills in mathematics needed for likely success in future coursework. The student has not met the achievement standard and needs substantial improvement to demonstrate the knowledge and skills in mathematics needed for likely success in future coursework. 3 Return to Table of Contents ASSESSMENT SCORE REPORT RESULTS • EDUCATOR TOOLKIT Mathematics and ELA/Literacy Achievement Level Descriptors – Grades 6-8 Level 4 Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 The student has exceeded the achievement standard and demonstrates advanced progress toward mastery of the knowledge and skills in [content area] needed for likely success in entry-level credit-bearing college coursework after high school.

Assessment claims are broad evidence-based statements about what students know and can do as demonstrated by their performance on the assessments. At each grade level within ELA/Literacy and Mathematics, there is one overall claim encompassing the entire content area and four specific content claims. Students will receive a score on each overall claim and scores for the specific content claims. Student performance is reported as “Above Standard,” “At/Near Standard,” or “Below Standard.” Above Standard Your test results clearly show that you understand and are able to apply your knowledge to the standards in this content area of your grade. At/Near Standard Your test results may be just above or just below the standard, but due to the error band, the result is too close to call. Below Standard Your test results clearly show that you have not yet met the standard in this content area for your grade.

Science Proficiency Levels The Science West Virginia General Summative Assessment uses a separate scale scoring system. The students receive a score report with a scale score and proficiency level. Below are the science proficiency levels. Distinguished Above Mastery Mastery: Partial Mastery Novice Student demonstrates knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of skills which exceed the standard. Student demonstrates knowledge, comprehension, application, and analysis of skills which exceed the standard. Student demonstrates knowledge, comprehension, and application of skills which meet the standard. Student demonstrates knowledge and recall of skills toward meeting the standard. Student does not demonstrate knowledge and recall of skills needed to meet the standard. Science Claims Performance Levels Science reports also indicate student performance on the science assessment claims. Assessment claims are broad evidence-based statements about what students know and can do as demonstrated by their performance on the assessments. Students will receive a score on each overall claim. Student performance is reported as “Above Standard,” “At/Near Standard,” or “Below Standard.” Return to Table of Contents 5 ASSESSMENT SCORE REPORT RESULTS • EDUCATOR TOOLKIT Above Standard Your test results clearly show that you understand and are able to apply your knowledge to the standards in this content area of your grade. At/Near Standard Your test results may be just above or just below the standard, but due to the error band, the result is too close to call. Below Standard Your test results clearly show that you have not yet met the standard in this content area for your grade. Table of Reports - ELA/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science Below is a comprehensive table of score reports available to educators. These reports use the WV General Summative Assessments, Interim Comprehensive Assessments, Interim Assessment Blocks, and WV Diagnostic Assessments. Important note: Educators are unable to view reports in the Online Reporting System (ORS) unless their principal has created/managed rosters for them in the ORS. If they are not associated with students in the ORS, then principals are the only school users who can view and print assessment reports.

Return to Table of Contents ASSESSMENT SCORE REPORT RESULTS • EDUCATOR TOOLKIT Summative Reports Guide ELA/Literacy and Mathematics Roster Performance on Each Target 1 2 3 4 1 Report Title — Title of report generated 2 Test Session Information — Includes test type, grade level, year of test session, and class 3 Legend — Shows the strength and weakness indicators of a +, =, -, and * 4 Target — States the assessment targets that were on the test 5 Performance Level — Indicates the class’s performance on the target 6 Comparison Scores — Comparison of student scale scores 6 Icon 5 The performance levels indicated on this report are relative to the test as a whole. Unlike achievement levels 1-4 provided at the subject and claim levels, these strengths and weaknesses do not imply proficiency. Instead, they show how a group of students’ performance is distributed across the target content relative to their overall subject performance on a test. For example, a group of students may have performed very well in a subject, but performed slightly lower in several targets. Thus, the equal and minus signs for a target do not imply a lack of proficiency. Instead, they simply communicate that these students’ performance on that target was statistically lower than their performance across all other targets put together. Although a student is doing well, an educator may want to focus instruction on the targets that did not receive a plus sign. 11 Target Level Description Better than performance on the test as a whole This target is a relative strength. The group of students performed better on items from this target than they did on the rest of the test as a whole. Similar to performance on the test as a whole This target is neither a relative strength nor a relative weakness. The group of students performed about as well on items from this target as they did on the rest of the test as a whole. Worse than performance on the test as a whole This target is a relative weakness. The group of students did not perform as well on items from this target as they did on the rest of the test as a whole. Insufficient Information Not enough information to determine whether this target is a relative strength or weakness.
