Book The Impact of Indiana s System of Diagnostic Assessments on Mathematics Achievement

Download or read book The Impact of Indiana s System of Diagnostic Assessments on Mathematics Achievement written by Spyros Konstantopoulos and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to design a rigorous experimental study and collect high quality data to determine the effectiveness of the intervention on student achievement. In particular, the authors examined whether diagnostic assessments implemented by schools in Indiana produced rigorous estimates of their effects on student performance on the state's annual Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress-Plus (ISTEP+) measures. Because the data were produced from a well designed randomized experiment they have high internal validity and justify causal inferences about the intervention effects (Shadish, Cook, & Campbell, 2002). In addition, because their sample included numerous schools (58 schools) from different school districts in Indiana their results should have higher external validity than those from convenient and localized samples. To account for the nesting of students within schools the authors employed two-level models to examine the effectiveness of the intervention. The experiment took place in Indiana in 2009-2010 and included K-8 schools that had volunteered to be part of the intervention the Spring of 2009. The authors used data from the first year of the experiment for grades K through 8. They conducted analysis on the initial number of schools that were randomly assigned to conditions (Intention to Treat or ITT) and on the participating or TOT (Treatment on Treated) schools. The outcome was mathematics scores of ISTEP+. The findings overall suggested that across all grades (K to 8) the treatment effect was positive, but it was not as large and not significantly different from zero. As a result, it seems that the type of diagnostic assessment that Indiana implemented in the sample of schools they evaluated did not improve mathematics achievement that much. The same conclusion holds for the results using grades K to 2 and 3 to 8. However, the within grade analysis revealed that in fifth grade mathematics the treatment effect was significant and not trivial. The treatment effect was consistently as large as one-fifth of a standard deviation and indicated an important annual gain in mathematics achievement. All other estimates were not consistently significant and depended on the specification. Hence, it is unclear that the intervention had any systematic effects on student achievement except for fifth grade mathematics. The estimates produced from the TOT analysis indicated significant treatment effects. However, it is likely that the TOT estimates are biased due to selection and therefore they are not as internally valid as those produced by the ITT analysis.

Book Influence of Diagnostic Testing on Achievement in Quantitative Economics of Secondary School Students

Download or read book Influence of Diagnostic Testing on Achievement in Quantitative Economics of Secondary School Students written by Nkechi Patricia-Mary Esomonu and published by . This book was released on 2023-04-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed at investigating the influence of diagnostic testing on academic achievement in quantitative economics of secondary school students. In conducting the study, 2 research questions and 3 hypotheses were stated. The study is quasi-experimental 2x4 factorial pretest-posttest designs. The sample consisted of 210 Senior Secondary 3 (SS3) economics students in four co¿educational schools purposively selected from Nnewi Education Zone of Anambra State, Nigeria. They were allocated to 3 experimental groups and 1 control group. Students' responses to two instruments titled Diagnostic Quantitative Economics Skill Test (DQEST) and Test of Achievement in Quantitative Economics (TAQE) constituted relevant data for the study. Data analysis was done using t-test and ANCOVA. Results of the analysis indicate a significant effect of treatment on students' achievement in favour of the group who received DQEST with feedback and remediation only (F (3, 209) = 22.3114, p

Book Handbook of Special Education

Download or read book Handbook of Special Education written by James M. Kauffman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 965 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the Handbook of Special Education is to help profile and bring greater clarity to the already sprawling and continuously expanding field of special education. To ensure consistency across the volume, chapter authors review and integrate existing research, identify strengths and weaknesses, note gaps in the literature, and discuss implications for practice and future research. The second edition has been fully updated throughout to take into account recent changes to federal laws as well as the most current academic research, and an entirely new section has been added on research methods in special education.
