Understanding Growth Models and How They Impact Teacher and School Evaluations (Recording)

Presenter(s): Dr. Stanley Rabinowitz and Dr. Laura Cain

States and school districts are incorporating growth models into a range of accountability and evaluation systems at increasing rates. However, there is no single universally accepted growth model. This edWebinar explores the following key questions:

  • What are the characteristics of appropriate assessments to measure student growth?
  • What factors are used to measure growth?
  • What are the various types of growth models being used in schools?
  • What technical criteria should be applied when evaluating a “growth model”?
  • This recorded edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 teachers, school and district leaders, and state departments of education
