Custom Reports:
SCGs and VCGs
Standard Comparison Group (SCG)
What is an SCG?
Custom Report
Evaluates your students’ observed growth against normative group Same grade & initial score
Same number of instructional weeks
Allows you to compare growth patterns across different groups of students
3
• Regular reports give you high level view of growth data
• SCGs break growth data down for deeper analysis
• Pivot tables allow you to sort data by– Gender– Ethnicity– School– Subject
Digging Deeper into Growth Data
4
• Six Pivot Reports:– Growth by Achievement– Growth by School– Growth by Subgroup (ethnicity)– Growth Figure (bar graph)– Testing Conditions– Testing Conditions & Growth
SCG Reports
Reports are best used in relation to a research question that needs to be answered with data.
Using Questions to Guide Data Collection
Dylan Wiliam calls it:
“Question-driven data collection.”
Not….
“Data-driven decision-making.”
Report Tabs
• Tab: Growth by Achievement• Question: How did our kids grow in various
percentile ranges of achievement compared to other kids with similar scores and similar amounts of instructional time?– Or, “Are our high-achieving students growing as
much as our low-achieving students?”
Questions to Drive the Data
Growth by Achievement
Filter your Data
Filters help administrators to dig into the data
• Tab “Growth By School”• Question: How did students in my building
grow compared to other students nationally by grade, and with similar amounts of instructional time?
Questions to Drive the Data
Growth by School
• Tab “Growth By Ethnicity”• Question: Which subgroups of students grew
average or above average compared to other subgroups nationally that had the similar scores and similar amounts of instructional time?
Questions to Drive the Data
Growth by Ethnicity
District Data:
Filters always available:
• Tab “Growth Figure”• Question: What was the observed actual
growth of our students compared to students nationally that had similar scores and instructional time?
Questions to Drive the Data
Growth Figure
• Tab “Testing Conditions”• Shows the percentages of students within each
school whose MAP assessments triggered one or more “flags”
• Indicates that the student was not fully engaged when taking the assessment – Low accuracy = significantly less than 50% correct
(higher SEM)– Short duration = little time on test– Unusual time increase/decrease = differences
between fall to spring test duration
Questions to Drive the Data
• Tab “Testing Conditions”• Question: Throughout the district, are there
any flags related to testing conditions that might be cause for further investigation?
Questions to Drive the Data
Testing Conditions
Testing Conditions
• Tab – “Testing Conditions & Growth”• Question – What impact did low accuracy and
short test duration have on the growth rates of these students?

Virtual Comparison Group
(VCG)
• Since my students and my school aren’t typical, how can you expect my students to make typical progress?– Need an apples to apples comparison– A proof point to demonstrate what is
possible
That’s great, but…
32
What is a VCG?
Custom Report
Evaluates individual students’ observed growth against a virtual comparison group Same grade & initial score
Same number of instructional weeks
Similar F/R eligibility
Same urban/rural classification
33
What is a VCG?
One step further…. We apply the filters to create a group that
matches each of your students
Virtual Comparison Group = virtual peer group
34
How we create a VCG
35
We identify included students
Identify all matching students from GRDSchool Income, Urban vs. Rural ClassificationGrade, Subject, Starting Achievement, Instructional Weeks
Randomly select comparison group

• Hybrid Success Goal– For students above state proficiency target =
average growth from norming study– For students below state proficiency target =
amount of growth needed to be proficient by 10th grade
