Identifying the Focused Student Group The first administration of the CDT is used to identify which students remain in the All Student Group and which are assigned to the Focused Student Group. If a student’s Overall Score on the first administration of the CDT is 1036 or lower, the student is assigned to the Focused Student Group. This corresponds to the Red band based on the expectations for the end of Grade 8.

The CDT Ranges can be found at: Under General Information, select Documents. Select 2014/2015 Classroom Diagnostic Tools under Administration and Professional Development under Document Type.

Students Meeting PI Targets

Calculating Elective Rating The first step in calculating elective rating is to determine which students met each performance indicator target. In Excel, you can use a logical test function for each column to determine this for you. For the end-of-course constructed-response assessment, the function is: – (all student group) =IF(CR>=12, “Yes”, “No”) – (focused student group) =IF(CR>=8, “Yes”, “No”) – CR stands for the cell that has the CR score in it, for example, J2 for Sue Kelley.

Calculating Elective Rating For the Final CDT Score for the All student group, the function is: – =IF(CDT>=1134, “Yes”, “No”) – CDT stands for the cell that has the final CDT score in it, for example, F2 for Sue Kelley. For the Final CDT Score for the Focused student group, the function is: – =IF(GR>=SE, “Yes”, “No”) – GR stands for the cell that has the Growth calculation in it, for example, H40 for Virginia Banks. – SE stands for the cell that has the student’s final standard error in it, for example G40 for Virginia Banks.

Calculating Elective Rating Count the number of scores that meet the PI target for each performance measure, and add the totals for each performance measure together. Divide that by the total number of scores. In Excel, you can use a COUNTIF function for each column to determine this for you. The formula is: =COUNTIF(SCSR:ECER,“Yes”) SCSR indicates the first student’s score, e.g., K2 ECER indicates the last student’s score, e.g., K51

Students Meeting PI Targets

Calculating Elective Rating In this student group, 38 students (out of 49) met the performance indicator for the CDT. In this student group, 46 students (out of 49) met the performance indicator for the constructed-response assessment. Elective rating = ( ) / ( ) = My rating, according to section 5a, is Proficient.
