Compose 3 paragraphs (minimum 150-word for each) analyzing the data from the TAPR and benchmark results. First paragraph: Identify the most significant academic performance gaps based on the data. Compare the sub-populations state assessment performance in each grade and content area to identify gaps. Compare student benchmarking performance to the student state assessment performance in each grade and content per sub-population to identify correlations or discrepancies. Cite evidence from the data to support your statements. Second paragraph: Cross-reference and synthesize the data from benchmark and state assessments. Identify the THREE most significant gaps in student sub-populations academic performance based on both academic data sets. Cite evidence from the data to justify how you identified the significant gaps. Final paragraph: Create an initial plan for finding the root cause of the academic performance gaps. Consider the following: Note: Use the Root Cause Analysis Model and PowerPoint in the course Resources to assist you. ? Why does one/some group(s) perform better than others? ? Where/how can this question be answered? ? Who may be able to provide this information? ? What data validates the information provided? ? Cite data analysis from the TAPR and benchmark results that support your rationale.
