We need to show mapping for Star Reading to our RethinkEd Platform.

We need to determine Tier Level designations.

Academic Assessment Data:

See: Renaissance for more information about Tiering and students whose scores are in close proximity to a different tier Level.

For each season (as defined by the column ScreeningPeriodWindowName), tiering will be based on the most recent value of the PercentileRank column for each student, where most recent is determined by the CompletedDateLocal column and each student is identified StudentUserID column. Note that in current designs (week of 06/19/23), information on tiering is provided for each season, so tiers should be shown separately by season. We specify to look at the most recent date in case a student completed the assessment twice in the same season.

 

Here is the mapping for students for default tiers (see note below about when users change the default):

Using the most recent date (as per the CompletedDateLocal column) within each student (as identified by the value in the StudentUserID column) and each value of ScreeningPeriodWindowName (so that students have a tier for each value of ScreeningPeriodWindowName):

  • Tara has created a spreadsheet (named “tier_mappings_for_academic_asessments” + date/time stamp) to show default tiers and at-risk/approaching indicators for academic assessments across all different assessment makers (iReady, Renaissance, NWEA MAP, etc.). She has written code that will help update the spreadsheet as we integrate new academic assessments. The idea is for DEV to use this spreadsheet as the source of truth for tier recommendations, at-risk, and approaching indicators for academic assessments.

    Important note: DEV will always use the .csv file with the most recent date/time stamp in its name from the following SharePoint folder: MTSS Academic Assessment Mapping. For this assessment, the specs below also spell out how default tiers will work, but all of this same information is also in the most recent .csv file.

  • For each season (as defined by the column ScreeningPeriodWindowName), tiering will be based on the most recent value of the PercentileRank column for each student, where most recent is determined by the CompletedDateLocal column and each student is identified StudentUserID column. Note that in current designs (week of 06/19/23), information on tiering is provided for each season, so tiers should be shown separately by season. We specify to look at the most recent date in case a student completed the assessment twice in the same season. Important note: Designs for the week of 07/17/2023 combine English Language Arts results across Star Reading and Star Early Literacy. Some students will have separate results in the same season for both tests. If that happens, use the most recent assessment results to map to a tier, regardless of whether those results are from Star Early Literacy or Star Reading (see Star Early Literacy (SEL) | Renaissance | Assessment Integration ).

     

    • Here is the mapping for students for default tiers (see note below about when users change the default):

      Using the most recent date (as per the CompletedDateLocal column) within each student (as identified by the value in the StudentUserID column) and each value of ScreeningPeriodWindowName (so that students have a tier for each value of ScreeningPeriodWindowName):

      • PercentileRank < 10 = tier 3

      • For the case when PercentileRank >= 8 & PercentileRank < 10 the student will be assigned to tier 3 with an approaching indicator (such as an up arrow) showing that they are close to moving to tier 2

      • PercentileRank >= 10 & PercentileRank < 25 = tier 2

      • For the case when PercentileRank >= 10 & PercentileRank < 12 the student will be assigned to tier 2 with an at risk indicator (such as a down arrow) showing that they are close to moving to tier 3

      • For the case when PercentileRank >= 8 23 & PercentileRank < 10 25 the student will be assigned to tier 3 2 with an approaching indicator (such as an up arrow) showing that they are close to moving to tier 21

      • PercentileRank >= 10 & PercentileRank < 25 = tier 21

      • For the case when PercentileRank >= 10 25 & PercentileRank < 12 27 the student will be assigned to tier 2 1 with an at risk indicator (such as a down arrow) showing that they are close to moving to tier 3For the case when PercentileRank >= 23 & PercentileRank < 25 the student will be assigned to tier 2 with an 2

    Important note: When a user changes from the default mapping for tiers, the at risk indicator (such as a down arrow) will apply when the student has the minimum PercentileRank or the minimum PercentileRank +1 for tier 1 or tier 2. The approaching indicator (such as an up arrow)

  • For the case when PercentileRank >= 25 & PercentileRank < 27 the student will be assigned to tier 1 with an at risk indicator (such as a down arrow) showing that they are close to moving to tier 2

    • Important note: When a user changes from the default mapping for tiers, the at risk indicator (such as a down arrow) will apply when the student has the minimum PercentileRank or the minimum PercentileRank +1 for tier 1 or tier 2. The approaching indicator (such as an up arrow) will apply when the student has the maximum PercentileRank or the maximum PercentileRank -1 for tier 2 or tier 3.

    • We will follow our own records by default and if no demographics is present in our own records, then we will put in what Renaissance has for demographic information.

    • Demographic Information: Need to decide what takes precedence. Renaissance has fields for student demographic information and so do we. Which information do we use for the drop downs filter selection and student profile information? If the demographic information doesn’t match, our users may see different demographic designations for the same student in different places in our platform or even just on MTSS Dashboard.
