In this post “missing data” does not mean absence of whole categories of data, which is a common enough problem, but missing data values within a given data set.
While this is a common problem in almost all spheres of research/evaluation it seems particularly common in more qualitative and participatory inquiry, where the same questions may not be asked of all participants/respondents. It is also likely to be a problem when data is extracted from documentary source produced by different parties e.g. project completion reports.
Assessment Futures
Many students currently graduate without appropriate skills in assessment.
Assessment serves many purposes, including:
• helping students improve their learning, and
• certifying their learning.
This website is about an important additional purpose for assessment.
It is about equipping students for the learning and assessing they will need to do after completing their course and the challenges they will face after graduation.
The Campbell Collaboration promotes positive social and economic change through the production and use of systematic reviews and other evidence synthesis for evidence-based policy and practice.
he Center for Assessment partnered with the Council for Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) to develop two companion resources to support states in their ongoing efforts to implement the accountability provision of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The first resource provides state accountability leaders an overview of the federal law and key design considerations as they develop identification systems under ESSA. The second resource is intended to help state accountability leaders consider criteria and potential methods to evaluate the success, utility, and impact of their identification and accountability systems under ESSA.
Teachers as well as building and district leaders who are implementing the Ohio Teacher Evaluation System will benefit from training and support related to selecting, developing and using assessments. The Ohio Department of Education, in conjunction with Battelle for Kids, is offering this support through activities aimed at helping participants enhance their “assessment literacy” skills.
