Short description: This presentation focuses on how tests are used by gifted coordinators at the report generation stage, including selecting local reference samples and interpreting local norm report scores. An interactive case study working with real data examining the reported scores for multiple measures demonstrates how to examine Representation Indices using different types of scores, sample compositions, and cut scores.
Learning Outcomes: Participants will:
Understand the fluidity of Local Norm reference samples when interpreting Local Norm Reports
Learn the different types of scores that can be generated using Local Norms
Learn the different types of scores, sample compositions and considerations for interpreting cut scores, and how to calculate Representation Indices
