NCES 2007-482 written by National Center for Education Statistics (ED), Washington, DC. and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of applying a methodology for mapping state proficiency standards in reading and mathematics onto the appropriate National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) scale, employing data from the 2004-05 academic year. The mapping exercise was carried out for both grades 4 and 8. For each of the four subject and grade combinations, the NAEP score equivalents to the states' proficiency standards vary widely, spanning a range of 60 to 80 NAEP score points. Although there is an essential ambiguity in any attempt to place state standards on a common scale, the ranking of the NAEP score equivalents to the states' proficiency standards offers an indicator of the relative stringency of those standards. The NAEP score equivalents derived from this methodology facilitate inferences about how the states' standards for these four subject and grade combinations compare to each other, as well as to NAEP performance standards. The report is organized as follows: Section 1 provides a brief description of the estimation method, including variance estimation. Section 2 describes the data resources employed, and Section 3 presents the results of the analysis. Section 4 provides discussion and conclusions. The text is augmented with four appendices: Appendix A describes the use of sample weights in NAEP; Appendix B treats the estimation of the variance of the estimated NAEP scale score equivalents; Appendix C provides supplementary plots; and Appendix D presents results based on an analysis of data from the 2003 assessments. (Contains 8 tables and 17 figures.).

This book was released on 2011 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2003, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) has compared each state's standard for proficient performance in reading and mathematics by mapping each state's standard onto the appropriate National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) scale. The results of those comparisons have been provided in three earlier reports, using state data for reading and mathematics at grades 4 and 8 from 2003, 2005, and 2007. This report provides highlights of applying the methodology for mapping state proficiency standards onto the NAEP scales using state data from the 2008-09 academic year and the 2009 NAEP grade 4 and 8 reading and mathematics assessments. The analyses summarized in this report address the following questions: (1) How do states' 2009 standards for proficient performance compare with one another when mapped onto the NAEP scale?; (2) How do the 2009 NAEP scale equivalents of state proficiency standards compare with those estimated for 2007 and 2005?; and (3) Does NAEP corroborate a state's changes in the proportion of the students meeting the state's standard for proficiency from 2007 to 2009? From 2005 to 2009? Limitations in the 2003 state assessment data (e.g., many states did not test grades 4 and 8 as NAEP) precluded a 2003 to 2009 comparison analysis. Appended are: (1) NAEP scale equivalent scores for state reading proficiency standards at grades 4 and 8 in 2009, and their differences from the 2005 and 2007 estimates of the same standards, by state; (2) NAEP scale equivalent scores for state mathematics proficiency standards at grades 4 and 8 in 2009, and their differences from the 2005 and 2007 estimates of the same standards, by state; (3) Direction of change in the estimated NAEP scale equivalent scores of state reading proficiency standards for the states that did not make significant changes in their assessments, by grade and comparison result: 2007 to 2009; and (4) Direction of change in the estimated NAEP scale equivalent scores of state mathematics proficiency standards for the states that did not make significant changes in their assessments, by grade and comparison result: 2007 to 2009. (Contains 20 figures and 7 tables.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2003, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) has compared each state's standard for proficient performance in reading and mathematics by placing the state standards onto the NAEP scale. The procedure, "mapping," allows the level of achievement required for proficient performance in one state to be compared with the level of achievement required in another state. The mapping procedure offers an approximate way to assess the relative rigor of the states' standards for proficient performance. This report presents mapping results using the 2005 and 2007 NAEP assessments in mathematics and reading for grades 4 and 8. The analyses conducted for this study addresses the following questions: (1) How do states' 2007 standards for proficient performance compare with each other when mapped onto the NAEP scale? (2) How do the cut points on the NAEP scale that are equivalent to the scores required to meet a state's standard in 2007 compare to those estimated for 2005? and (3) Using the 2005 NAEP scale equivalent standards to define a state's proficient level of performance on NAEP, do NAEP and that state assessment agree on the changes in the proportion of students meeting that state's standard for proficiency from 2005 to 2007? The report divides into five sections. Following an introduction, Section 2 provides a description of the estimation methods used in the mapping and in the comparisons of results between 2005 and 2007. Section 3 presents the results of the analyses that examined the mapping results for 2007 in reading and mathematics at grades 4 and 8. Addressing the second question, Section 4 focuses on the comparison between the 2005 and 2007 mappings in reading and mathematics at grades 4 and 8. Addressing the third question, Section 5 discusses the NAEP and state assessment changes in achievement from 2005 to 2007, including possible explanations for discrepancies in the gains measured by the state tests and NAEP so that attention can be turned to identifying the sources of those discrepancies. Tables in appendix A show the sample sizes and percentages of the 2007 NAEP samples used in the analyses. Tables in appendix B summarize selected changes in states' assessments between the two NAEP administrations of 2005 and 2007 that could affect the interpretation of the mapping results. Appendix C includes tables with results complementing those discussed in the body of the report. (Contains 40 tables, 4 figures, and 28 footnotes.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2003, the Nat. Center for Educ. Stat. (NCES) has supported research that focuses on comparing NAEP and state proficiency standards. By showing where states' standards lie on the NAEP scale, the mapping analyses offer several important contributions. First, they allow each state to compare the stringency of its criteria for proficiency with that of other states. Second, mapping analyses inform a state whether the rigor of its standards, as represented by the NAEP scale equivalent of the state's standard, changed over time. This report presents the research questions and the key findings regarding state proficiency standards, as they are measured on the NAEP scale. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under the 2001 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, states developed their own assessments and set their own proficiency standards to measure student achievement. This has resulted in a great deal of variation among the states, both in their proficiency standards and in their student assessments (NCES 2008-475). This variation has created a challenge in understanding the ability levels of students across the United States because there is no means to compare the proficiency levels established by one state against the others directly. To address this need, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) has published periodic reports for the past 10 years in which the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is used as a common metric for examining the proficiency standards set by states in reading and mathematics in grades 4 and 8. This report, the fifth in the series, presents the results of applying a methodology for mapping state proficiency standards onto the NAEP scales by using state public school data for the 2012-13 school year and the 2013 NAEP assessments in reading and mathematics for grades 4 and 8. The report also includes analyses of the results using the 2011 NAEP and state assessment data and revised estimates for 2009 reported in NCES 2011-458. The key finding is that the variation among state achievement standards continues to be wide. The following are appended: (1) 2011 Mapping Results; (2) Revised 2009 Mapping Results; (3) Supporting Tables; and (4) Similarity of State Assessments and NAEP.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Setting standards of performance is a ubiquitous task in education licensure, certification, and credentialling. It is found in elementary schooling, the professions, commercial applications, and governmental and private organizations. It is one of the most complex, controversial, and vexing issues facing specialists and policy makers today. This second edition solidifies Setting Performance Standards as the only book providing a comprehensive profile of both the issues and the "how-to" methods that define this thorny field. Four chapters have been removed; 11 chapters have been added; 2 chapters have major revisions; and all chapters have been updated. Comprehensive – Part I provides a conceptual overview of standard setting and its overarching issues; Part II provides practical (how-to) information on the newest standard setting methods; Part III provides information and advice on persistent and potential challenges in standard setting. Practical – Part II (the heart of the book) reviews 16 of the newest standard setting methods, far more than any other book. Expertise – Most of the well-known authors from the 1st edition return, with authors of equal stature contributing new chapters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book challenges the conventional wisdom that government bureaucrats inevitably seek secrecy and demonstrates how and when participatory bureaucracy manages the enduring tension between bureaucratic administration and democratic accountability. Looking closely at federal level public participation in pharmaceutical regulation and educational assessments within the context of the vast system of American federal advisory committees, this book demonstrates that participatory bureaucracy supports bureaucratic administration in ways consistent with democratic accountability when it focuses on complex tasks and engages diverse expertise. In these conditions, public participation can help produce better policy outcomes, such as safer prescription drugs. Instead of bureaucracy's opposite or alternative, public participation can work as its complement.
