New Iowa Assessments Implications for Determination of Proficiency

  • Background

– Due to historical trend data available prior to NCLB, the state’s workbook application requested continued flexibility of administration dates (fall, midyear or spring) – The National Percentile Rank (NPR) metric allowed for a fixed cutscore while allowing for flexibility in administration dates

New Iowa Assessments Implications for Determination of Proficiency

  • Assumptions for new forms

– Schools will continue to administer their Iowa Assessments to meet their scheduling requirements and to retain their historical trend data (fall, midyear

  • r spring)

– New forms will be linked to previous forms and the equivalent of the 41st NPR from the 2000 norms will be identified on the Form E scale – The expectations for proficiency remain the same from Forms A/B to Forms E/F – Interpretation information will be made available to schools to transition to new forms

Proposed Link to Proficiency Ranges – High School Reading Example

Testing Period Score Proficiency -- Current Proficiency – New Fall Raw Score 21-44 New assessments will be linked to current assessments Standard Score 259-369 NPR 41-99 Midyear Raw Score 22-44 Standard score scale will be established using linking relationship Standard Score 262-369 NPR 41-99 Spring Raw Score 23-44 SS metric will be used for reporting AYP Standard Score 263-374 NPR 41-99
