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? Across all California districts plotted for 2015 versus 2018, MiC districts' average achievement followed the same pattern as other districts, with slightly tighter clustering in meeting/exceeding percentages. → Perry 2019

Figure 2 plots each California district's 2015 versus 2018 percentage of grades 3–8 students meeting or exceeding the standard; MiC districts (blue squares) cluster slightly left of center and are described as slightly more homogeneous than non-MiC-selected districts (red circles).
"on average, achievement generally follows the same pattern of per- formance in MiC districts as in other districts across the state"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Statewide California mathematics achievement on the CAASPP was mostly stagnant from 2015 to 2018 and lagged behind English language arts gains — related
- Statewide mathematics achievement gaps between English learners and English speakers increased from 2015 to 2017, a pattern evident in all but one MiC district — related
- Student cohorts in several MiC districts showed consistently higher mathematics achievement than the statewide average from 2015 to 2017, with wide district variability — related
- Elementary schools in Math in Common districts exceeded predicted CAASPP mathematics performance at significantly higher rates than other California schools between 2016 and 2018 — related
- MiC middle schools outperformed prediction in 2016 and 2017 but the advantage faded by 2018, while non-selected comparison districts improved significantly — related
- English learners in nearly all MiC districts showed stronger annual CAASPP mathematics gains than their statewide peers from 2015 to 2017 despite remaining mostly at the lowest achievement level — related
- The lowest-performing MiC elementary schools made increasingly greater progress beyond prediction as CCSS-M implementation deepened from 2016 to 2018 — related
- PPE schools showed larger percentage increases in proficient students than non-PPE schools on statewide ELA and mathematics assessments, 2015–2017 — related
- Availability of CAASPP statewide assessment data changed MiC leadership teams' discussions and appeared to accelerate districts' ability to monitor improvement — related
