The ICA reports include the same information as the summative assessment reports. They include an overall scale score, an achievement level, and claim-level information. The claims reported for ELA are: reading, writing, listening, and research and inquiry. The claims reported for mathematics are: concepts and procedures, problem solving, communicating reasoning, and modeling and data analysis.
Student overall achievement scores are reported in four performance levels: “Standard Exceeded,” “Standard Met,” “Standard Nearly Met,” and “Standard Not Met.” Student achievement by claim is reported in three reporting categories, “Above Standard,” “Near Standard,” and “Below Standard.”
The IAB reports focus on a smaller set of skills and are designed to provide information about student performance on a related set of standards. IAB results are reported based on three classifications: “Below Standard,” “Near Standard,” and “Above Standard.”
