[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As one of the analysts who worked on this data, I am pleased to see you all talking about it. It makes me feel those crazy nights aren't going to waste... FYI the performance levels will be released soon. I would say the exact date, but I would probably get in trouble-- but it will be very soon. I will share this thread with the team as they would be happy to see how people engage with the data we create. [/quote]

Thanks for chatting with us! If I may offer some feedback, I think it would be helpful to contextualize this data with whether the change is statistically significant. Many parents don't quite get how small the PARCC testing population is at a lot of schools EOTP and it's easy to read the data and draw mistaken conclusions.[/quote]

Thanks for this feedback. We were thinking of writing a paper that would explain the statistical breakdown. I think it would be very good to read for the public. [/quote]

That would be super! Or just a note on whether the changes for each school are statistically significant.

I would also love to see PARCC and MSAA broken out separately, rather than rolled into a single display. I think to combine them makes the data harder to interpret. Some schools have a higher percentage of MSAA takers than others, and if combining them makes a school's performance look worse, that's basically penalizing schools that offer a lot of self-contained classrooms. I'm sure that isn't your intention!

DP but I am not sure the data, extensive though it may be, has sufficient statistical power to draw school-level conclusions. The spreadsheet does allow for filtering to break out PARCC/MSAA data separately. [/quote]
