Measures estimated student growth as impacted
by Covid-19 school closures at the beginning of March 2020, quartermonth
25 (QM 25, or March 8 - March 15, 2020). More...
The NEW Student Roster — Estimated Growth Report, Early School Closure (ESC) Edition, compares a student's original estimated growth trajectory to a new trajectory that reflects Covid-19-related school closures. The ESC trajectory assumes zero growth from quartermonth 25 (QM 25, March 8 - 15, 2020).
Comparing estimated student growth (ESG) for a typical school year (TSY) with growth for the early school closures (ESC) can help you determine:
○ The impact of school closures on students' academic growth
○ The efficacy of distance learning programs per grade, content, and/or location (class, school, district, region)
○ Different impacts on different student populations
Note: In order to have this report available to you, your students must have tested at least once during the 2018-19 school year and once since the school shutdown (QM 25).
The report heading provides the report type, the test (Iowa Assessments is required for this report) and form, the test date, and the norms being used for scoring. The center bracket shows the grade and level, the right bracket the location. The total number of students tested appears just below the heading, directly above the table of scores.
Based on the heading below, testing for the Student Roster ESC Edition took place on August 1st, 2020 using Iowa Assessments Form E and Fall 2017 norms. 1,479 fifth-graders across Region-1 of the state were tested.
The report itself, for each student, displays a student's name and ID number, secondary student ID (if applicable), birth date, age, and gender, and test level and form. The remaining columns in the table provide the student's scores for each test and composite.
The New Student Roster report displays three scores:
○ GE: the grade equivalent of the student's score on the assessment; fifth-grade students testing in August 2020 at level 11 Reading scored in a range of grade equivalencies, from above-grade (5.9 and 5.6, for the top two students shown in the table) to below-grade (4.5, 3.8, and 4.0, for the remaining three shown here).
○ EGD (TSY): the estimated delay in growth of the student for a typical school year; both of the top two students had no growth delays for Reading, while the third student experienced a 1-3-month delay. (The bottom two students shown here did not participate in a past test event, so growth delay was not measurable.)
○ EGD (SCA): the estimated delay in growth of the student, adjusted for early school closures; DataManager estimates zero growth from the time of most school closures, March 2020. Because growth is expected to flatten, these scores will always show a better outcome than those for a typical school year. As the table of scores above demonstrates, while the third student had a 1-3 month delay for EGD (TSY), the student scored above the adjusted growth delay. The difference is consistent for the Written Expression test scores, where the delay is greater for the TSY than for the SCA.

The following group profiles are available for the assessments specified in parentheses:
Bar
Graph (all)
The Group Profile —Bar Graph provides a bar graph displaying the average scores by test and composite or by skill domain for the selected group(s)—class, building, district, system, region, or state. For each Group Profile, the results are the combined average of the highest group level selected when you create the report. For example, if you select the Building level, the average score will be the combined average for the selected classes in the Building.
The top of each page of the report provides the report scope and test information, including some or all of the following: group, assessment, form, test date, norms, grade, level, class, building, district (if applicable), system, region (if applicable), and state.
Under each test name, the number of students whose scores were used to calculate the average score is shown. (This number may vary from the total number of students tested. For details, refer to “Exclude Scores from Group Averages” in the Supplemental Coding Guide available through DataManager.)
Note: For Iowa Assessments™ and Logramos® reports, you can click any of the blue underlined links to open a related skill analysis report.
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.
Longitudinal
Line Graph (all)
The Group Profile — Longitudinal Line Graph displays a series of line graphs showing the average test and composite scores of a specified group of students over time for up to five test administrations. For comparison purposes, the GMRT, Iowa and Logramos graphs also display a gray line representing the growth in achievement for the average student in the nation over the same period of time.
This image shows a Longitudinal Line Graph report for ninth-graders going back four years. The example uses Iowa Assessments at the building level.
The image below shows a Longitudinal Line Graph report for fourth-graders taking GMRT going back three years. (In the case of Vocabulary/Word Knowledge, the graph goes back only two years because that category is not on the Level 1 test.)
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.
NEW
Estimated Growth Summary, Early School Closure Edition
(Iowa Assessments only)
The Estimated Growth Summary, Early School Closure (ESC) Edition, provides two points of comparison for students in each content area that you select: the estimated growth summary for students in a typical school year (TSY) versus the estimated growth for students with the ESC factored in.
Important: Students must have tested at least once during the 2018-2019 school year and once since QM 25 2020 (March 8-15, 2020) to make this report available.
For each Content Scope that you have selected for the report, the number and percentage of students scoring within the TSY estimated growth versus the ESC estimated growth appears on a color-coded bar graph. The number of months delayed is indicated along the bottom row of the report. Student scores are paired as TSY and ESC in blocks of months delayed, from 0 months delay to 1-3 months, 4-6 months, 7-10 months, and over 10 months delay.
In the example below, the TSY estimate for the 4-6-month growth delay segment equals 11% or one student, whereas the adjusted growth delay predicts twice that number (22% or two students).
To view a Student Roster report for one of the segments, click the percent number at the top of the bar.
College
Readiness Summary (Iowa
Assessments only)
The Group Profile—College Readiness Summary displays pie charts showing the number and percent of the students in the group that are on track to enroll and succeed in postsecondary coursework. This option is available for Grades 6–12. The report displays charts for each of the selected college readiness test options, which includes Reading, Language, Mathematics, and Science.
College Readiness is determined by mapping the predicted ACT® score range, which is estimated using Iowa Assessments test results, with defined targets of readiness as determined by ACT College Readiness Benchmarks.
Within the chart of any test, you can click the Number or Percent link for either group of students— On Track or Not Yet on Track —to open the Student Roster for that group of students.
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.
Estimated
Growth Summary (Iowa
Assessments only)
The Group Profile—Estimated Growth Summary provides pie charts for each content area displaying the number and percent of the students in the group that exceed, meet, or do not meet an estimated rate of growth. For each student in the group, the test and composite results of the current test administration are compared to a previous Iowa Assessments test administration to determine if that student met the estimated rate of growth. The results for all students in the group are combined to provide the group total. Note that only those students who took the current and previous test administrations are included in the group totals displayed in each pie chart.
Within the chart of any test, you can click the Number or Percent link for any group of students— Exceeds Estimated Growth, Meets Estimated Growth, or Does Not Meet Estimated Growth —to open the Student Roster for that group of students.
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.
Balanced
Assessment Estimated Growth Summary (Interim
Assessments only)
The Group Profile—Balanced Assessment Estimated Growth Summary provides a pie chart displaying the number and percent of the students in the group that exceed, meet, or do not meet an estimated rate of growth. For each student in the group, the results of the current Riverside Interim Assessments test administration are compared to a previous Iowa Assessments test administration to determine if that student met the estimated rate of growth. The results for all students in the group are combined to provide the group total. Note that only those students who took the current and previous test administrations are included in the group total displayed in the pie chart.
Within the chart, you can click the Number or Percent link for any group of students— Exceeds Estimated Growth , Meets Estimated Growth , or Does Not Meet Estimated Growth —to open the Student Roster for that group of students.
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.

Monitoring Line Graph (Interim
Assessments only)
The Group Profile—Progress Monitoring Line Graph allows you to track the progress of a group by skill domain for up to three test administrations taken within the year.
Note: Data in this sample are for illustrative purposes only.
Proficiency
Profile (Interim
Assessments only)
The Group Proficiency Profile displays pie charts showing the number and percent of the students in the group that are included in predetermined proficiency ranges, based on test results or skill domain scores. Using the PERFORMANCE BANDS option, you can customize the color-coded proficiency value ranges and labels, or you can use the default ranges and labels. Default values differ by test and level. For a complete list of default ranges, see Recommended Proficiency Cut Scores. A footnote is provided at the bottom of the report identifying the labels and value ranges assigned for the report. The Proficiency Level Descriptions link in the upper right corner of the page allows you to open a document containing a complete list of proficiency level descriptions by grade.

Provides a comparison of a group's average percent-correct
for each test item to that of the encompassing location(s). More...
This report provides the Iowa Assessments or Logramos percent-correct scores for each item on a test, sorted by skill domains. It displays the average performance of the group (in this case, a class) and compares it to the average national performance in addition to 1-2 groups (for example, a district and/or a building) of the user's choosing (at run-time).

REGION/SYSTEM/DISTRICT/ BUILDING/CLASS |
● All (default) ● Specific location |
Determines the scope of your report. The field name depends on your setup and permissions (for example, BUILDING if you are a Building or School Administrator). If you select a specific location, a new sublevel field opens below. This continues for all available locations down to the level of CLASS. |
|
GROUP POPULATION |
Select 1-2 hierarchy levels |
Compares the group performance on each test item to the performance of 1-2 larger groups (in addition to national performance, which appears by default for every report). Selections are equal to or greater than the report grouping. Note: If your system has customized the names of hierarchy labels (for example, "School" instead of "Building"), these labels revert to the system default labels for this field. |

Displays each student's response to each item
on an assessment. More...
This report displays each student's response to every test item on an Iowa Assessments or Logramos test. By default, it also shows the national average of percent-correct scores. Users can select an additional group by which to compare individiual student responses (such as a building or a district). The report contains two parts, Class Item Response Record and Class Item Response Summary.
Important: Due to the scope and granularity of item-level data, this report takes longer to run. Additionally, it renders multi-page results in a single PDF file. Please consider the optimal size of your PDF file before running the report.

● Included ● Excluded |
Refers to the "Office Use Only" section of a student answer document. Identifies students whose test scores should be included or excluded from group averages. |
|
REGION/SYSTEM/DISTRICT/ BUILDING/CLASS |
1 from each location listed, down to the level of Class |
Allows you to select hierarchy levels that narrow the scope of your report to the class identity. One location for each level below your own is presented in a separate field (for example, if you log on as an Area Administrator, System on one row, then District on the next, then BUILDING, then Class). Selections at the upper levels (for example, District B rather than A) may narrow the selections of the lower-level locations. This series of fields ends in the final CLASS selection for which the report will be run. |
|
Comparison Grouping |
Select 0 - 1 customer hierarchy levels for comparison. |
Allows you to compare the performance of students on test items to one larger group (in addition to national performance, which appears for every report). Note: If your system has customized the names of hierarchy labels (for example, "School" instead of "Building"), these labels revert to the system default labels for this field. |
