The SLO intervals of instruction are semester or year-long.
Student population includes and is limited to the following: the number of students in the class, a description of students with exceptionalities, and a description of academic supports provided to students.
Historical and trend data includes the applicable past data for the students, the students’ level of knowledge prior to instruction, including the source(s) of data, and reflect on the relevance to the overall course objectives
The pre-assessment can be a beginning-of-course assessment, performance task, or teacher-, school-, or district-generated pretest that includes a grading scale and a rubric.
Progress monitoring occurs each nine weeks.
The primary purpose of progress monitoring is to share and discuss the results of this data collection.
The learning goals/objectives are based upon pre-assessment results and should be broad enough to capture major content.
Standards include time period and seat time.
Growth targets are set using the halfway from 100 method.
Growth target categories are tiered, targeted, and individualized.
Instructional strategies do not include areas of focus for professional development.
An SLO does not require a reflection on the data.
There are three SLO conferences: preliminary, mid-course, and summative.
