Roster Verification
Agenda Topic
Welcome /Housekeeping/Use of Mobi Device/Goals
What is PVAAS, the growth concept and how does this connect to Educator Effectiveness?
What does the PVAAS site look like? What kinds of reports will teachers see?
What does percentage of Instructional Responsibility mean?
What is the state and district timeline for implementation?
Feedback survey using Mobi devices
Resources/Adjourn
Which do you say, Pop or Soda?
• Press ‘A’ for Pop
• Press ‘B’ for Soda
• Press ‘C’ for I use a different word.
Do you prefer fries or onion rings?
• Press ‘A’ for Fries

• Press ’C’ for I never eat either
Goals
1) Build awareness of the PVAAS growth concept and how it connects to Educator Effectiveness
2) View the PVAAS demo site and learn how to access the system
3) Explore the percentage of Instructional Responsibility and its meaning
4) Review the state and district timeline for implementation
5) Provide resources and collect teacher feedback

Overall Important Information • It is the Red Section of the Educator Effectiveness System
– A teacher needs a 3 year rolling average before it counts for Educator Effectiveness
• PVAAS Teacher Specific Roster Verification begins this Spring• It will impact teachers who plan, provide instruction for and
assess:– PSSA reading and mathematics in grades 4-8;
– PSSA science in grades 4 and 8;
– PSSA writing in grades 5 and 8;
– Keystone-related courses—Algebra I, Biology, Literature
• Instructional Responsibility is a new term. It is calculated by multiplying the (% Student + Teacher Enrollment) by (Full or Partial % of Instruction).
What is PVAAS teacher-specific reporting?• PVAAS is a measure that indicates the academic growth of a teacher’s
group of students
• PVAAS provides a measure of academic growth for students by taking into account both their endpoint and their entering achievement level
• By concentrating on growth, PVAAS puts the emphasis on what educators can influence
• For the first time in Pennsylvania teachers will have access to information regarding their influence on the academic progress of students
What is the purpose of PVAAS teacher-specific reporting?The purpose of PVAAS teacher-specific reporting is to:
•provide a teacher-specific growth measure to be used as part of Pennsylvania’s Educator Effectiveness System
•provide diagnostic feedback to teachers regarding their influence on the academic growth of students
•provide data for teachers and administrators to guide discussions about a teacher’s influence on the academic growth on groups of students
PVAAS teacher-specific reporting serves as one additional source of data to inform building-based decisions regarding:
– differentiated instruction in the classroom; – tutoring students in need of extra support;– mentors for beginning teachers;– cooperating teachers assigned to work with student teachers;– members of school-wide planning committees;– curricular planning; and/or– professional development.
How can PVAAS teacher-specific reporting enhance decision-making?

PSSA Achievement vs. PVAAS Growth
• Measures students’ performance at a single point in time
• Highly correlated with students’ demographic background
• Measures students’ progress across time (i.e., across years and grade levels)
• Not related to demographic background when a student’s prior achievement is adequately accounted for; dependent on what happens as a result of schooling

Concept of Measuring Growth-What do these growth colors mean?
What do we mean by “Green”?
• At least maintain the achievement level for a group of students– If a higher achieving group of students: to keep them
high achieving– If an average achieving group of students: to keep
them at least at that level– If a lower achieving group of students: to keep them
at least at that level, and not lose ground as a group
• We may need to yield more growth if increased achievement is the goal.
Check-In1) If another teacher asks me to explain how growth data is different than
achievement data , I would :
1. Be very comfortable in responding2. Need to consult my notes to respond3. Need more information before responding
2) How likely are you to view the PVAAS website to view the Learning Modules and/or the Demo Site?
1. Very likely2. Somewhat likely3. Not very likely
What is PVAAS Roster Verification?
Roster Verification is a way for teachers to VERIFY their students rosters –
Are the right students linked to the right teachers for the right subject/grade/courses for the right proportion of instructional responsibility?
New Term: % Instructional Responsibility
% Student + Teacher
Enrollment
Full or Partial % of Instruction
• This % is your total Instructional Responsibility for a student.
• This % reflects how much the student will be weighted in the PVAAS analyses.
• The % Instructional Responsibility is calculated by multiplying the (% Student + Teacher Enrollment) by (Full or Partial % of Instruction).
% Instructional Responsibility
New Term: % Student + Teacher Enrollment
20
IS …•The % of a grade/subject/course that a student and teacher are concurrently enrolled•Total Days Possible: Day 1 through last school day before LEA testing window opens•Default is 100%
IS NOT…•Attendance
% Student + Teacher
Enrollment
New Term: Full or Partial % of Instruction
Of the time that the teacher and the student were concurrently enrolled in the grade/subject/course,
– How much of the instruction (Domains 1 and 3) belongs with the teacher?
– How much of the instruction (Domains 1 and 3) belongs with another teacher?
Full or Partial % of Instruction
Calculating % Instructional Responsibility
% Student + Teacher
Enrollment
Full or Partial % of Instruction
What proportion of the grade/subject/course are the student and teacher concurrently enrolled?
Of time student & teacher enrolled together, are you the only PA certified
educator providing content-specific instruction (Domains 1 and 3) of the
assessed eligible content in the grade/subject/course?

Timeline—State Process
Each window has a specific open and close date. Start verifying when your window opens to allow time for questions.
Goals
1) Build awareness of the PVAAS growth concept and how it connects to Educator Effectiveness
2) Review the types of PVAAS reports that teachers will see
3) Explore the percentage of Instructional Responsibility and its meaning
4) Review the state and district timeline for implementation
5) Provide resources and collect teacher feedback
