Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? The dashboard includes remotely and in-person administered MAP Growth data and primarily focuses on grades 3 through 8, based on NWEA research finding remote test results largely comparable with in-person results for students in grades 3 and up. → User guide for interpreting the NWEA state dashboard: Exploring the educational impacts of COVID-19 2021
Evidence¶
User guide for interpreting the NWEA state dashboard: Exploring the educational impacts of COVID-19 2021¶
User guide for interpreting the NWEA state dashboard: Exploring the educational impacts of COVID-19. (2021). NWEA Center for School and Student Progress. https://www.nwea.org/research/publication/user-guide-for-interpreting-the-nwea-state-dashboard-exploring-the-educational-impacts-of-covid-19/
q2 · i? · design · r1
The guide's data-notes section states the visualizations include tests administered both remotely and in person, and cites NWEA's comparability analysis of remote and in-person fall 2020 MAP Growth testing as the basis for the grade focus.
"NWEA research vi suggests that the validity and reliability of remote test results are largely comparable with results from in-person testing for students in grades 3 and up; thus, the dashboard primarily focuses on grades 3 through 8."
