But that meant that even schools that were making great strides with students were still labeled as &#8220;failing,&#8221; just because the students had just not made it all the way to the proficient level of achievement.<\/p>\n<p>Carey and Manwaring say, &#8220;Educational accountability isn&#8217;t just a matter of identifying which schools have the most failing students. It also requires some response to that information that will help fewer students fail.&#8221;\u00a0 Since 2005, 15 states have been approved to implement a growth model pilot. The states adopted one of four distinct models-Trajectory, Transition Tables, Student Growth Percentiles, and Projection-each with some drawbacks. How much did these new calculations change NCLB? Not much.<\/p>\n<p>Growth Models and Accountability explores efforts to combine growth and achievement into a single accountability measure. It points to Colorado&#8217;s state-specific accountability system that emphasizes communicating with the public and making meaningful distinctions between different kinds of schools. This report also offers policymakers a recipe for combining student growth with student achievement to create a more meaningful accountability system.<\/p>\n<p>Go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.educationsector.org\/publications\/growth-models-and-accountability-recipe-remaking-esea\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.educationsector.org\/publications\/growth-models-and-accountability-recipe-remaking-esea<\/a> to access the full report and a video that discusses findings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the reauthorization of ESEA draws nearer, Education Sector&#8217;s Policy Director Kevin Carey and Robert Manwaring, a fiscal and policy consultant, argue in a newly released report, Growth Models and Accountability: A Recipe for Remaking ESEA, that Congress should combine a measure of student growth with achievement into a single accountability measure in the design <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coreeducationllc.com\/blog2\/growth-models-and-accountability-a-recipe-for-remaking-esea\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"sr-only\">Read more about Growth Models and Accountability: A Recipe for Remaking ESEA?<\/span>[&hellip;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[5,6],"tags":[74,91,82,92,61],"class_list":["post-366","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics-policy","category-teacher-evaluation","tag-accountability","tag-elementary-and-secondary-education-act","tag-esea","tag-politics","tag-teacher-evaluation-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Growth Models and Accountability: A Recipe for Remaking ESEA?
