Education Committee - Senate & House Meeting Jointly with Advanced Communications & Information — Dec. 16, 2019 (44:28)

Our goal is, through this, to find out where we're missing it, where we need to make changes, So that that student has a better chance three, four, five years down the road of being successful. It's not taking that student today and then comparing another student five years

are as a state today with our abilities and our system to educate that child today.

Education Committee - Senate & House Meeting Jointly with Advanced Communications & Information — Dec. 16, 2019 (42:21)

because those two that that's a whole different specimen base of what you're testing and so there's a there is a large potential margin of error here when you look at the results of what one group of students did as compared to what another group of students did five years later it's not going to be a a guaranteed positive

Education Committee - Senate & House Meeting Jointly with Advanced Communications & Information — Dec. 16, 2019 (41:48)

because those two classes are not the same if you really want to look at the progress of implementation you have to compare what a student did last year as compared to what they did this year and so looking at a looking at a class of fourth grade reading and saying well they scored X and then two years of legislature two years of implementation another year of a test cycle now you're five years down the road and saying well we've implemented this let's test fourth graders and see how they're reading now there's not a lot of validity to that

know just for me personally, for anyone who spent any time at all in the public school system, you know that when you're looking at data, that you have to factor in that no two classes are the same. If you really want to look at reading progression, you don't look at what this year's fourth grade class did as compared to last year's fourth grade class,
