Multiple Measures of Student Achievement
1. Building Level Data (School Performance Profile)
Academic Achievement, Graduation/Promotion Rate, Attendance, AP-IB Courses offered, PSAT, Building Level PSSA and Keystone Assessment Data
2. Correlation Data Based on Teacher Level Measures PSSA, Keystone Data
3. Elective Data (SLOs)
II. SLO Process
SLO Process
A process to document a
measure of educator effectiveness
based on student achievement of
content standards.
SLO ConceptsStudent achievement can be measured in ways that reflect authentic learning of content standards.
Educator effectiveness can be measured through use of student achievement measures.
The SLO in PA is written to a specific teacher and a specific class/course/content area for which that teacher provides
instruction in the area they are certified to teach.
Many factors can influence the size of an SLO,
but the process remains the same………..

Assessment #2
SLOs should:1. Represent the diversity of students
and courses/content areas taught.2. Align to a set of approved
indicators/targets related to selected academic content standards.
3. Be based upon two time-bound events/data collection periods and/or performance defined levels of “mastery”.
4. Be supported by verifiable data that can be collected and scored in a standardized manner.
5. Include a set of independent performance measures.
SLO Process Criteria
SLO Process Steps: Teacher
1.Identify subject and students
2.Select the “big idea” from the content standards
3.Establish a goal4.Select and/or create
performance measures for each indicator
5.Identify indicators associated with the goal
6.Create performance expectations across all indicators

Expectations
1. Goals are based upon the “big ideas” within the content standards.
2. Performance indicators are specific, measureable, attainable, and realistic.
3. Performance measures should be valid, reliable, and rigorous assessments.
4. Data should be collected, organized, and reported in a consistent manner.
5. Teacher expectations of student achievement should be demanding.

2c. Rationale
Spanish 1Students will be able demonstrate effective communication in the target language by speaking and listening, writing, and reading. 8th Grade ArtStudents will demonstrate the ability to manipulate visual art materials and tools to create works based on the ideas of other artists and to evaluate the processes and products of themselves and other artists.
Grade 5 LibraryStudents will demonstrate the ability to use online D.P.S. databases and search engines, Britannica Elementary, Culture Grams, and Nettrekker toward support real world experiences and determining which is the best source for specific information.
2a. The SLO Goal
Statement:
What’s the Important Learning?
Targeted content standards used in developing the SLO.
Arts and Humanities:
9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4
http://pdesas.org/
2b. Standards selection:
What Standards Match the
Goal Statement?
Explains why the SLO is important and how students will demonstrate learning of the standards through
this objective.
Grade 8 Art:Developing the ability to manipulate visual art materials and tools are important to the artistic creation process, as is the ability to evaluate the process and product created by oneself and others. Child Development (FCS)Understanding how children grow and develop will prepare individuals and families to meet challenges associated with raising children.
2c. Rationale
statement: Why is this
Learning Important?

Many things must be considered when choosing or building
quality assessments.
Choosing or Building Performance Measures and Tasks
Some things to think about…
What must a Student know and do to complete a
performance measure?
What does a Teacher do to administer a performance
measure?
How does a Teacher score a
performance measure?
