PVAAS Value-AddedGrowth Measures Reading and Math 4-8
The Growth Measure is NOT reported in years and cannot
be referenced in terms of number of year’s growth.
1000 1100 1200 1300 1400 1500 Scale Score Points
0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100NCE Units
Growth is measured in Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) units as scale scores cannot be compared from grade to grade and year to year.
The Growth Measure is NOT reported in percentages and cannot be referenced in terms of an increase or decrease in percentage points.
PVAAS Value-Added Growth Measures - Science, Writing and Keystones
• Growth is measured in scale score points.
• The Growth Measure is NOT reported in years and cannot be referenced in terms of number of year’s growth.
• The Growth Measure is NOT reported in percentages and cannot be referenced in terms of an increase or decrease in percentage points.
TEACHER SPECIFIC REPORTING
What is PVAAS teacher-specific reporting?
• Estimates the effect of a teacher’s performance on the academic growth of a group of students.
• Taking into account both their endpoint and their entering achievement level.
• By concentrating on growth, PVAAS puts the emphasis on what educators can influence.
26
Purpose of PVAAS Teacher Specific Reporting
• To inform teaching practice in order to guide replication, changes,
or
• adjustments of teaching practices for continual professional growth.
Who does this affect?
A PA certified educator with full or partial responsibility for content
specific instruction of the assessed eligible content as measured by a PA
state assessment
Face to Face Online Instruction28
PVAAS Teacher Reporting: Teachers in Which Tested Grades/Subjects/Courses?
• PSSA: With/Without Accommodations (Not PASA)– Grades 4-8: Reading and Math– Grades 4 & 8: Science– Grades 5 & 8: Writing
• Future: Transition into ELA Assessment• Courses Culminating in Keystone Exams:
With/Without Accommodations– Algebra I– Literature– Biology
Approximately 30-40% of your teaching staff will be eligible
for a PVAAS teacher specific
score
29
What is content-specific instruction?
• Content Specific Instruction: When a teacher(s) has the responsibility to
• plan the instruction of the assessed eligible content,• provide the instruction of the assessed eligible content,• use the assessment information to evaluate the
effectiveness of the instruction of the assessed eligible content on a PA state assessment.
Defined on the Framework for Teaching by both Domains 1 and 3
Special education teachers, intervention specialists, reading/math specialists, ESL teachers, and gifted teachers are eligible for a
PVAAS score

Full or Partial %
of Instructio
n• 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).

TEACHER VERIFICATION
Teachers, school administrators and district administrators verifying data that is used to yield PVAAS teacher specific reporting– data that will ultimately be used as part of a teacher’s evaluation.
The PVAAS rosters are prepopulated from the
PIMS Course/HQT submitted by LEAs to PIMS (Student, Staff,
Course Templates)
What is this Verification process all about?

Access to Teacher Specific Reporting
What does my District or School Admin see?
• The same PVAAS data and reporting for an individual teacher that a teacher can see
• No additional data or reporting on any individual teacher!
School Admin. can also:• See a District/School Teacher Summary for
quick access by school/ grade/ subject/ course
• Search to locate an individual teacher’s report
• Will PVAAS teacher‐specific reporting be reported publicly?– Act 82 states that “An employee's
individual rating form shall not be subject to disclosure
– Reference: Act of February 14, 2008 (P.L. 6, No.3), known as the "Right‐to‐Know Law." PDE will follow the law on non‐disclosure.
