Decoding the Standards Webinar Series

Description

This webinar focuses on the applications of the 2014 Standards for using tests for program evaluation, accountability, and other policy-related purposes. Although previous versions of the Standards address these uses, several changes were made to the current version in response to the growing prevalence of test-based accountability policies that rely on complex indices, such as scores from value-added models, and that impose consequences on students and educators. This webinar will provide an overview of the relevant standards and will discuss specific applications of them in high-stakes accountability environments.
