Including Missing Data in the Estimate of the Impact of the Pandemic on Student Learning
Part 3 of a 3-part Series on The Practical Implications of COVID-19 “Learning Loss” Studies
It has been a year since COVID-19 made it impossible for states to administer state assessment programs last spring. Since then, multiple studies using data from commercial “interim” assessments have been put forward to help the field understand the pandemic’s impact on student learning. Through these special “learning loss” studies, assessment vendors have attempted to shed light on the effects of COVID-19 on learning nationally. In this three-part CenterLine series, we address the practical implications of these studies for learning recovery.
