Instrument Name: | Scantron Performance Series
Vendor: | Scantron Incorporated
Purpose: | Performance Series is a research-based, criterion-referenced computer-adaptive test that lets K-12 educators quickly pinpoint the instructional level of students across a range of subjects, capture immediate results, and produce standards-based reports including suggested learning objectives, on a scaled score.  Performance Series is a fully-integrated computer adaptive diagnostic assessment ideal for predicting performance on the state tests, as well as tracking student growth over time Performance Series enables educators to quickly pinpoint the proficiency levels of students corresponding to state specific standards.  This information then allows teachers to more accurately place students, diagnose instructional needs – including instructional adjustments – and measure student gains.  Performance Series is a computer adaptive on-line assessment that enables educators to quickly pinpoint the proficiency levels of students corresponding to state specific standards.  This information then allows teachers to more accurately place students, diagnose instructional needs – including instructional adjustments – and measure student gains.
Content Area and Student Population: | Reading, Grades 2-11 Language Arts, Grades 2-8 Life Science, Grades 2-8 Reading Foundations, Grades K-2 Mathematics, Grades 2-10 High School Algebra and Geometry Math en Espanol, Grades 2-9
Frequency: | Performance Series tests are generally given to students at the beginning of each year, or as they enter school, as a diagnostic assessment to accurately measure learning levels and guide student placement. Performance Series tests are administered again to accurately measure gains and growth.  The Performance Series test can be administered as often as the district or school chooses.  Scantron recommends at least 12 weeks between tests.  Each test is unique to its content which is measured against standards such as state standards or [NAME].  The second and subsequent administrations are not a “retest” of the content of the initial administration.
Alignment: | Performance Series mathematics scale scores were used to predict the CSAP scale scores using a simple linear regression model.
