ABSTRACT

This document provides information on average studentperformance at the state level on end-of-grade (grades 3 through 8 inreading and mathematics and grades 4 through 8 in social studies)multiple-choice tests and all end-of-course (high school courses)tests administered in 1994-95 as part of the North Carolina TestingProgram. State-level summary statistics in this document may be usedto make grade-to-grade and subject-to-subject comparisons across theyears (indicating gain). Year-to-year comparisons of developmentalscale scores of cohort groups can be used to measure growth ascohorts move through the grades. Information is also presented onstudent participation in rigorous selective high school courses ahdthe range of scores used to determine a student's proficiency basedon establi.,hed standards. In addition to the summary statistics, thisdocument contains grade and subject level achievcsient performance forend-of-grade tests and disaggregated information for end-of-coursetests. This and associated information provide a comprehensivereference of overall and disaggregated state testing results for1994-95. In that year, the end-of-grade tests were administered toover 519,000 students, and more than 550,000 end-of-coursemultiple-choice tests were administered for 10 high school courses.Student achievement in reading and mathematics continued to improvein grades 3 through 8. High school performance, judged by test scoresin the seven areas for which comparisons can be made, improved infour, declined in one, and remained the same in two areas.

Introduction

The 1994-95 North Carolina State Testing Results document provides information on average studentperformance at the state level on End-of-Grade (Grades 3-8 in reading and mathematics, and grades 4-8 in socialstudies) multiple-choice tests and all End-of-Course (high school courses) tests administered in 1994-95 as a partof the North Carolina Testing Program. The tabies in this document were generated using state-level student datacompiled after the verification process in the fall of 1995 to replace results reporzad in the 1994-95 PreliminaryTest Results released during the summer of 1995.

The End-of-Course Testing Program began as a part of the statewide testing program in North Carolina in 1985-86 with the first Algebra I test administration. Other high school tests were added over time until 1994-95 whenthe program included eleven tests: Algebra I, Algebra II, Biology, Chemistry, ELP, English I, English II,Geometry, Physical Science, Physics, and U. S. History. The End-of-Grade Testing Program was implementedinitially in 1992-93 when more challenging assessment strategies replaced the multiple-choice testing that waspreviously done using the California Achievement Tests. Through the 1994-95 school year statewide End-of-Grade included reading and mathematics multiple-choice and open-ended tests in grades 3 through 8 and socialstudies multiple-choice and open-ended tests in grades 4 through 8. (The 1994-95 Open-Ended Test Results inreading, mathematics and social studies are reported under separate cover.)

In May, 1995, the State Board of Education reduced statewide testing in North Carolina by approximately fiftypercent effective with the 1995-96 school year. Beginning with the 1995-96 school year, statewide End-of-Gradetesting includes reading and mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and writing in grades 4 and 7. Effective with the1996-97 school year, open-ended testing in reading and mathematics will be administered in grades 5 and 8. End-of-Course testing statewide has been reduced to include Algebra I, Biology, English I, English II, ELP, and U. S.History.

State-level summary Jtatistics contained within this document may be used to make grade-to-grade and subject tosubject comparisons across years (gain). Also, year-to-year comparisons of developmental scale scores of cohortgroups (growth) as they move through grades 3-8 in reading and mathematics can be made. In addition to studentachievement, information on student part, ipation in rigorous selective high school courses and the range of scoresused to determine a student's level of proficiency based on established standards are included. A variety ofstatistical descriptions, test scores, and formats have been used to present the aggregate student data. Thisdocument has been prepared to serve as reference for school systems and schools interested in making similarcomparisons and analyses.

In addition to the 1994-95 summary statistics, this document contains grade and subject achievement levelperformance for End-of-Grade tests, and disaggregated information for subgroups for both End-of-Grade and End-of-Course tests. The state-level goal summary reports for both End-of-Grade and End-of-Course (generated fromspring testing only) serve as a curriculum reference of student performance which school systems, schools, andother groups may use to compare their spring 1994-95 testing results to yield goal-level curriculum information.An added feature this year is the depiction of LEA mean scale score or raw score performance using stem and leafcharts for reading and mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and the core subjects for high school. Each schoolsystem's performance reported by Technical Assistance Center (TAC) and TAC performance for each testadministered in 1994-95 are also included.

The purpose of this publication is to provide a comprehensive reference compendium of the overall anddisaggregated state testing results for 1994-95. Educators and others seeking to better understand studentachievement in North Carolina may use this information to make useful comparisons and to make informeddecisions. These results represent state-level average student performance on the curriculum competenciesmeasured in the revised North Carolina Standard Course of Study.

Overview

1994-95 North Carolina State Testing Results:End-of-Grade and End-of-Course Multiple-Choice Tests

Including English II Essay

The North Carolina End-of-Grade Tests were administered to over519,000 students in grade 3 through 8 at the end of the 1994-95 schoolyear. More than 550,000 End-of-Course multiple-choice tests wereadministered in ten high school courses.

The purpose of this document is to report statewide test results for theEnd-of-Grade and End-of-Course .multiple-choice tests and the EnglishII Essay administered during the 1994-95 school year to givebenchmarks for comparisons of local school and school system results.Overall statewide results are reported, and disaggregated results bydemographic and other characteristics.

Student achievement in reading and mathematics continues to improvein grades 3 through 8. Students continue to grow at a faster rate thananticipated from initial results in 1992-93, as a higher percentage ofstudents are performing at Level III or above. In addition, fewerstudents are performing at the lowest level of achievement. Thesefindings are consistent with the improvements in reading andmathematics seen on the National Assessment of Educational Progress.

In the seven high school subjects where the test results can be comparedto the previous year, scores improved in four, remained the same in two,and declined in one subject. The slight decrease in Algebra I

achievement was accompanied by a large increase in participation.

North Carolina schools are doing a better job of preparing students tomeet more rigorous academic standards in reading, mathematics, andsocial studies, and in high school subjects. Students are beingencouraged to take higher level mathematics and science courses in highschool, as evidenced by dramatic increases in participation over the pastsix or seven years. However, there is still a wide discrepancy amongstudents, classes and schools in performance and participation.

Providing students with a solid educational foundation in reading andmathematics ensures that they are better prepared to be successful inhigh school and in postsecondary education and employment. The StateBoard of Education's new accountability model focuses on reading,mathematics, and writing in elementary school, and core academic areasin high school, encouraging continued emphasis on these basic skills inNorth Carolina public schools.

What are theEnd-of-Gradeand End-of-Course Tests?

Beginning in the 1992-93 school year, North Carolina changed itsstatewide testing program in elementary and middle school from usinga nationally-normed achievement test to using North Carolina-developed tests which are aligned with the revised North CarolinaStandard Course of Study. Using a balance of both multiple-choice andopen-ended formats, the End-of-Grade Tests measure achievement ofcurricular objectives which have a stronger emphasis on higher-orderthinking skills and which are closely aligned with national curriculumstandards.

1994-95 is the third year that End-of-Grade Tests in reading andmathematics have been given, and the second year for tests in socialstudies. Beginning in 1995-96, the social studies and science tests willbe available as a local option.

Results from open-ended testing in grades 3 through 8 are reported ina separate document entitled 1994-95 Report of Open-Ended TestResults.

Results of the 1995 North Carolina Assessment of Writing in grades 4,6, and 8 were reported in a separate document entitled Assessment ofWriting Results for 1994-95.

Beginning in the 1985-86 school year, North Carolina beganimplementing End-of-Course Tests in selected high school subjects.End-of-Course Tests are also North Carolina developed tests which arealigned with the revised North Carolina Standard Course of Study.Revisions of the End-of-Course Tests to measure the revised curriculawith a stronger emphasis on higher-order thinking skills began withstatewide implementation in 1993-94.

In 1994-95 End-of-Course Tests in Algebra I; Geometry; Algebra II;Economics, Legal, and Political Systems; US History; PhysicalScience; Biology; Chemistry; Physics; English I; and English II weregiven.

Beginning in 1995-96 End-of-Course Tests will be administeredstatewide only in the core subjects (Algebra I, English I, Biology,English II Essay, Economics, Legal, and Political Systems, and USHistory). Also beginning in 1995-96, other End-of-Course Tests(Algebra II, Geometry, Physical Science, Chemistry, and Physics) willbe available as a local option.

English 11 is an essay test which measures student skills in the fourmodes of writing. In addition, it measures the student's application ofwriting to analyze world literature.

How are All multiple-choice tests are scored locally so that students andscores parents receive copies of their individual score reports soon after thereported? tests are administered at the end of the school year. School systems

release their results according to local schedules.

End-of-Grade

End-of-Course

End-of-Grade Test scores are reported in three different formats:developmental scale scores, which measure growth in reading andmathematics achievement over time; achievement levels, whichmeasure performance relative to standards set by teachers aboutexpected performance in each grade level; and percentiles, whichallow for the comparison of achievement relative to the performanceof others in the state.

The End-of-Grade achievement levels are:

Level IStudents performing at this level do not have sufficientmastery of knowledge and skills in the subject area to be successful atthe next grade level.

Level IIStudents performing at this level demonstrate inconsistentmastery of knowledge and skills in the subject area and are minimallyprepared to be successful at the next grade level.

Level IEStudents performing at this level consistently demonstratemastery of the grade level subject matter and skills and are well-prepared for the next grade level.

Level IVStudents performing at this level consistently perform in asuperior manner clearly beyond that required to be proficient at gradelevel work.

The State Board of Education has set Level III as the standard fordemonstrating proficient grade level skill and knowledge. All studentsperforming below Level III must receive special assistance to helpthem reach grade level proficiency.

End-of-Course test scores are reported in several different formatsscale scores, which measure subject-area achievement and arestandardized across tests (English I, Algebra I, Biology, and USHistory); raw scores, which measure the number of core test questionsthe students answered correctly (remaining six tests); and percentiles,which allow comparisons of achievement relative to the performance ofothers in the state.

When reported on The Report Card, End-of-Course test scores arealso compared to a standard of proficiency. This standard is set by theState Board of Education and is used to describe the attainment of ahigh level of proficiency in the subject area (corresponds to receivingAs and Bs in the course).

1994-95StatewideResults ofEnd-of-GradeMultiple -Choice Tests

Figures 1 and 2 (on page vii) show the rates of growth in reading andmathematics for the expected growth (i.e., 1992-93), actual 1993-94growth, and actual 1994-95 growth.

The rate of growth in reading and mathematics continues to be abovethat anticipated from the first administration in 1992-93 (i.e., expectedgrowth) for all grades. In addition, the rate of growth increased overthat found in 1993-94 in over half of the grade level/subject areacomparisons.

If the rate of growth seen in both 1993-94 and 1994-95 continues,eighth-grade students in 1997-98 will be approximately one year aheadof their eighth-grade counterparts in 1992-93.

Figures 3 and 4 (on pages viii and ix) illustrate the percent of studentsin each achievement level across all grades for three years in readingand mathematics.

The percentage of students across all grades achieving at the lowestlevel continues to decrease, from 10.3 percent in 1992-93 in reading to8.9 percent in 1994-95, and from 10.7 percent in 1992-93 inmathematics to 8.7 percent in 1994-95.

Table 2 (on pages 8 and 9) shows the End-of-Grade scores for theprevious three years including percentages of students achieving atLevels III and IV in reading and mathematics.

The increase in students achieving at Level III and IV across gradelevels means that almost 15,000 additional students in reading and over20,000 additional students in mathematics are reaching grade levelproficiency than in 1993-94. Since 1992-93, almost 30,000 additionalstudents in reading, and over 40,000 in mathematics, are reachinggrade level proficiency.

Both mean scale scores and percent at Levels III or above increasedfor 16 of 17 grade level/subject area comparisons. Fourth gradereading scores did not increase. (Social studies was not requiredstatewide in 1994-95 for third graders; about 17 percentor 15,000students participated at state expense as a local option.)

1994-95 marks the second year of the social studies tests. The percentof students reaching at least Level III increased by 1.5 to 2.9percentage points at every grade level.

Beginning on page vii are charts and graphs depicting statewide growthfrom 1993 to 1995 and changes in the level of student achievementacross all grades and years in reading and mathematics.

1994-95StatewideResults of End-of-CourseMultiple-Choice Tests

Table I (on page 84) shows the scores and participation indices forten high school courses over time.

End-of-Course Tests are in a process of redevelopment to be alignedwith revised curricula. New tests cannot be directly compared with oldtests since they cover different content and scores are reporteddifferently (raw scores versus scale scores).

In the seven courses where the test results can be compared to theprevious year, scores are higher in five (Algebra II; Physical Science;Chemistry; Economic, Legal, and Political Systems; and Physics), lowerin one (Algebra I), and the same in one (Geometry).

Student participation in selective, higher level mathematics and sciencecourses has increased dramatically over the past several years.Participation in Geometry and Algebra II has increased by over 15percentage points since 1988-89. Participation in Chemistry hasincreased over 10 percentage points during the same period. Theselarge increases in participation have not been accompanied by largedecreases in performance. In fact, scores have increased for all of thesesubjects since 1988-89.

Beginning with the freshman class of 1992-93 (graduates of 1995-96)Algebra I became a requirement for graduation. The slight decrease inperformance in Algebra I since last year is accompanied by a largeincrease in participation.

Interpretations of English II Common Prompt test results across years(Figure 1 on page 86) should be made with caution since the promptchanges annually and the mode of writing varies from year to year.However, in comparison to the 1993-94 results, the scores in 1994-95contained more blank papers but fewer off-topic essays. Also, thenumber of student scores in mid-range (i.e., 2.0-3.5) increased while thenumber of student scores at the lower (i.e., 0.0-1.5) and upper (i.e., 4.0.-6.0) ends of the scale decreased.

Test score characteristics of the English II Essay for 1994-95 indicatethe following:

Students had difficulties in interpreting and analyzing a piece ofliterature. Many students lost focus and drifted into pure plotsummaries, while students failed to develop ideas with relevantsupporting details.

Papers were scored as off-topic only when the readers could notdetermine by the content of the essay that the student wasresponding to the prompt given.

Students who score 3.5 or greater demonstrated in-depth literaryanalysis and produced well-organized compositions. Studentsmust go beyond plot summaries to reach higher score points.

End-of-CourseExplanation of Statistics Printed in the Tables and Figures

The tables and figures in this report show state and disaggregated results. On Tables 1through 13, the following formulas were used.

Formulas Used

The number of students in a category with valid scores.

Percent N divided by the total number of students with valid scores.

All Averages, The mean score of all students with valid scores.Tables 1 through 13

Average Cores,Goal Summaries

Algebra II, Chemistry, ELP, Geometry, Physics, andPhysical Science: The mean score of all students with validscores.

Average Scale Scores, Algebra I, Biology, English I, and U. S. History: The meanGoal Summaries Only score of all school system means (average ofaverages).

Participation Index Number of students enrolled in the course, divided by thenumber of students who were in the eighth grade the year inwhich typical students in the course were in the eighthgrade. (For example, since Physical Science is typically aninth-grade course, the eighth-grade membership for theprevious year would be the denominator.)

The populations of students for Biology, English I, and U. S. History always consist ofstudents who took the tests in May of1995 only because that was the first administrationof the new scaled test. The populations of the other seven multiple-choice tests vary bytype of report, as described below.
