Background

Campus Level Metric

TPRI is given to many students across Texas in the early grades.  Is serves as a screening tool to identify students who will need extra help to be reading on grade level by the end of the year.  This assessment has been developed in response to the large number of requests for this data from elementary educators in the LPR districts.

Primary Metric

TPRI: the percentage of students scoring developed on the most recent administration

Dashboard Example

Figure 1 shows the TPRI  as seen on the campus dashboard.

Status Definition on the Dashboard

The Status Indicator is determined by campus-specific thresholds (campus goals) which are set at the district level. The TSDS default threshold is  for campuses is 70%.

Trend Definition

Table 3 lists the trend indicators for the TPRI metric.

The trend does not display if the student has not taken a previous benchmark assessment.

Table 3 Trend Indicators for TPRI

Trend Indicators: Objective is to indicate TPRI objective mastery

Up green

If the value has increased 5% or more since the prior administration

Unchanged

If the value has not changed or changed less than 5% from the prior administration

Down red

If the value has decreased 5% or more from the prior period.

Campus Goal

Delta

TPRI

Set Campus Goal

Red (Percentage) = if the calculated delta is less than the campus goal

Black (Percentage) = if the calculated delta is equal to or greater than the campus goal

Prior Year TPRI

Set Campus Goal

Red (Percentage) = if the calculated delta is less than the campus goal

Tooltips

The standard tool tips for the metric definition, column headers, and help functions display for this metric.

  • Green metric status: OK
  • Red metric status: LOW
  • 'More' indicates drill down views for the metric.
  • is ‘No change from the prior period'
  • is ‘Getting worse from the prior period’
  • is 'Getting better from the prior period'

Business Rules

Data Assumptions

  • Campus must report scores for all the sections given to the student as well as their score for the assessment as a whole.
  • Student scores are listed by count as well as score (Still Developing or Developed)
  • Campuses only administer the TPRI for grades K-2

Computed Values

The status equals the number of students with a score of D over the number of students with a TPRI score for the campus.

TPRI Identification

The assessment vendor must to identify the following based components from the enumerated set of data: grade level, classroom/section, campus and date of administration.

Data Anomalies

Anomalies

  • Late enrollees may have taken Benchmark Assessment  tests at their previous school
  • Loading of data from multiple administration dates

Footnotes

Best practice is for the developer to footnote the following:

  • The date and the school year that the Reading Assessment scores were last loaded.

Date of Refresh

The date of refresh should display as (Through MOY 2012)

Drill Downs

Drill Down Views

The dashboards include the option to drill down and see more detail that is associated with a metric. Table 5 lists the drill down views that are recommended for this metric.
