What We Do

Educational Data Analysis

Student Achievement Modeling

Our proprietary Student Achievement Modeling (SAM) is a next step in the evolution of value-added modeling (VAM), combining formative mid-period assessments with summative standardized testing to create a holistic view of performance. Like VAM, Student Achievement Modeling uses each student’s individual performance history to track the effects of teachers and schools. Unlike VAM, Student Achievement Modeling also provides the ability to track student and teacher performance multiple times a year, creating opportunities for intervention prior to end-of-year testing.

Program Evaluation

We offer our clients the ability to measure any program’s impact on student achievement. Using our growth metrics, we can look at any group of students or teachers. This can be used to measure the value of interventions, after school programs, teacher coaching, and other cohorts.
