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 validation research reveals some differences in SEDA growth estimates, even while supporting SEDA achievement scores. → Megan Kuhfeld 2019
Evidence¶
Megan Kuhfeld 2019¶
Megan Kuhfeld, Thurston Domina, Paul Hanselman. (2019). Validating the SEDA measures of district educational opportunities via a common assessment. NWEA Research brief. https://www.nwea.org/research/publication/validating-the-seda-measures-of-district-educational-opportunities-via-a-common-assessment-brief/
q2 · i? · associational · r?
The brief's summary sentence states the research "reveals some differences in growth estimates". The page prints no statistics, magnitudes, or direction for these differences; only their existence is asserted.
"New research supports SEDA achievement scores, but also reveals some differences in growth estimates."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Validation research via a common assessment supports SEDA achievement scores — related
- Small systematic discrepancies imply SEDA growth estimates may not generalize to MAP Growth-based estimates in some states — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
- SEDA growth estimates show a high degree of congruence with MAP Growth-based estimates overall — reports the opposite
- SEDA and MAP Growth district growth estimates in mathematics correlate at .90 (precision-adjusted) — related
- SEDA and MAP Growth district growth estimates in ELA correlate at .82 (precision-adjusted) — related
- Discrepancies between SEDA and MAP Growth ELA growth estimates are slightly more pronounced in high-socioeconomic-status districts — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
