An Empirical Approach to Developing Learning Progressions
A new method of developing learning progressions is introduced in this paper. This method involves the assignment of psychometrically determined difficulty values to learning-progression skills--and it employs more of a big-data approach. It begins with a bank of data for tens of millions of students representing the measured interaction between learning-progression skills and students at different levels of learning.(Email research@renaissance.com to request a copy of this poster from the Renaissance Research Department.)
Core Progress for Math: Empirically validated learning progressions
This white paper explains what learning progressions are, how they operate in relation to standards, and how they support instruction and assessment. The paper then describes the breakthrough research-based approach used to develop the learning progression for math. The full report is available online: <https://docs.renaissance.com/R55248>.
Core Progress for Reading: Empirically validated learning progressions
This white paper explains what learning progressions are, how they operate in relation to standards, and how they support instruction and assessment. The paper then describes the breakthrough research-based approach used to develop the learning progression for reading. The full report is available online: <https://docs.renaissance.com/R53985>.
