5. Making Wise Choices to Measure The SLO DO NOT USE!!! WKCE, Smarter Balanced, ACT, Aspire, AP o Must reflect in-year growth o Must be able to take a mid-point progress check District standardized assessments (MAP/Star) can be good for measuring growth at the school level High quality teacher created assessments can be the best (but sometimes this is easier said than done) o What crosses and is applicable to everyone in your target population? o Who will design the measure? o Who will administer and score? 5
