Improving Education Policy Analysis and Practice by Addressing Test Score Measurement Error

Test scores are instrumental in education research and decision making. They are being used for a growing number of high-stakes decisions about students, teachers, and schools, and to measure the effectiveness of education policies and interventions. In observational studies where treatment and control groups of students typically differ on attributes related to achievement, test scores are often the key control variables used to adjust for pre-existing differences among groups.

Reducing Bias and Improving Efficiency of Estimated Teacher Effects from Value-Added Models

Value-added models (VAMs) use longitudinal student-level test score data and complex statistical models to generate estimates of the effects of individual teachers on student learning. This holds the promise of providing fair comparisons of teachers teaching different types of students. These estimates have heightened interest in teachers' roles in student academic outcomes. There has been rapidly growing interest among policymakers to use these measures for high-stakes decisions about teach...
