Research Brief: Forecasting AIMS from AZCCRS Tests
|
Conclusions
Can local assessments aligned to AZCCRS accurately forecast student performance on AIMS assessments aligned to older AZ standards?
- Both Galileo assessments aligned to AZCCRS and those aligned to older AZ standards demonstrated high levels of predictive validity and forecasting accuracy with respect to the AIMS assessment.
- Predictive validity analyses revealed that Arizona students were ranked in a similar order to AIMS by assessments measuring AZCCRS and those measuring older AZ standards.
- Moderate to high correlations were consistently observed across different sets of standards, grades, and content areas. Variability in the correlations is within typical ranges and likely reflects variability associated with different samples of students.
- Galileo risk levels accurately forecast student AIMS performance based on student performance on multiple Galileo assessments aligned to AZCCRS and/or older AZ standards.
- Districts/charters can use local Galileo assessments to provide student risk levels along with information about student standards mastery supporting the planning of effective interventions.
- High levels of forecasting accuracy suggest that statistical procedures applied by ATI to align the performance level cut scores for Galileo assessments to those for AIMS were effective.
