Abstract Details

2008, Doctor of Education, Ashland University, College of Education.
Although much has been written about the various value-added models from a statistical point of view, there is a considerable lack of literature related to the professional development implications of value-added once a particular model has been chosen. This study illuminates and describes some of the professional development implications related to Ohio’s scale up of its educational value-added assessment system from the perspective of those responsible for teaching its implications to others at the local level – the District Value-Added Specialists. Six research questions were explored using a survey instrument that was developed by the researcher. The results were reviewed and discussed. The practical implications of instituting a value-added assessment model include using value-added data with other forms of data in order to improve instructional practices. Suggestions were provided specific to Ohio’s value-added scale-up and its impact on educators.
