What data can go into SPAplatform?

SPAstandard is a summative assessment tool. The data that goes into SPA needs to be able to be benchmarked against normed scores. Therefore, only tests that are programmed into SPAstandard can be uploaded. New tests are always being added, so read the SPA homepage regularly to make sure you're kept up to date on SPAstandard's analysing capabilities.

• Teacher Judgment ‘report’ marks
• OnDemand new VicCurriculum adaptive tests
• Maths Online Interview (MOI) through Insight Platform
• VCE achieved vs. predicted scores

SPAmarkbook is a formative assessment tool. Therefore, its focus is on what skills students have and don't have. Often these types of tests are teacher-developed and do not have benchmarks. Teachers can build any assessment into SPAmarkbook to show the skills, knowledge, and understandings students have and calculate an effect size growth between assessments.

• SPAtracker pulls data from the SPAstandard and SPAmarkbook modules to analyse multiple tests side by side.
