We need to include subsets specific to math content. Page includes specifications for placement levels and unique fields for grade levels
Similar to Renaissance
Scale Score with placement categories for an overall assessment.
Renaissance Placement Categories (4): At/Above, On Watch, Intervention, Urgent Intervention
iReady Placement Categories (3 to 5): Mid/Late Grade Level, Early Grade Level, 1 Grade Level Behind, 2 Grade Levels Behind, 3 Grade Levels behind
Grade K has Mid/Late Grade Level, Early Grade Level, 1 Grade Behind
Grade 1 / 2 have Mid/Late Grade Level, Early Grade Level, 1 Grade Behind, 2 Grades Behind
Grades 3 + have all 5 levels
Impact to Design:
Overall reporting can remain with the same structure/graphs and only rename placement categories. Will need to match with user’s selection of Tiers for placement categories and carry throughout District/Building/Classroom/Student views. As the grade level increases, there are more placement categories to match to a tier selection similar to Renaissance with 4 categories. We may want new hover items to explain which placement categories are included within a tier. Unlike Renaissance where Tier/Placement Categories are consistent throughout the year, iReady users may want the Tier / Placement categories to change as the student progresses through the school year.
Consider:
Settings---reflective of 3 testing windows matching Tier Levels to Placement Categories that differ with the grade levels.
Tier Levels/Placement categories do not remain consistent for entire year.
Different From Renaissance
iReady extends scale score and placement categories to 4 subsets within math.
Ren does have subsets but we didn’t get those fields for MVP. Future development could include these.
Impact to Design / Consider:
Student View Graphs: There could be more than just an overview graph. Showing subset’s scale score and/or placement categories throughout each testing window helps to determine next steps with Intervention plans.
Math subsets
Field Name: number_and_operations_scale_score
Field Description: This is a scaled score specific to a subset (Number and Operation) and also included in each of the tests (Fall, Winter, Spring)
Value: Helps user to see where the student is in each domain specific skill set for the content area. Helps to select Domains for Intervention Plans.
UI:
