AAPf17 Sessions: 

​Opportunity Measures – Validating Unique Student Outcomes and School Success

Together, Momentum Strategy & Research and a consortium of Colorado alternative education campuses  are leading the way on a project demonstrating how the types of unique student outcomes central to alternative schools can be validated and used for accountability purposes.  Using an external validation model developed by Momentum, each participating school submits unique mission specific measures for external review, including ultimate rating by a panel of reviewers. Reviewers assess the outcomes of the measures on a rubric, providing immediately useable information to the schools about the strength of their outcomes. Documentation of the process and the combined outcomes of all participating schools will be used to show how the evaluation of unique measures can be part of a robust and meaningful accountability system.  Attendees will hear a detailed account from a participating alternative school about the measures they are using in the Opportunity Measure Pilot Project and how the review process has helped validate data on measures that speak to their unique mission and the plan to incorporate this data into how the school is held accountable.

the annual alternative accountability policy forum is aN Education policy conference from:
