SGP (version 0.7-1.0)

stateData: State assessment program data including performance level cutscores for large scale state assessments

Description

A list containing information on state assessment programs, organized by state. Currently the list contains achievement level cutscores and labels for the state assessments, assessment name and abbreviation, growth cutscores and labels, information on vertical scaling, and knots and boundaries currently being used for SGP analyses at the state level. The cutscores, in particular, are used by the studentGrowthProjections function to calculate growth-to-standard/projection values by supplying a state's two letter acronym to the argument performance.level.cutscores. In the future, this list will expand to include other relevant data about the state assessment system. States currently included in the data set are Arizona (AZ), Colorado (CO), Connecticut (CT), Georgia (GA), Idaho (ID), Indiana (IN), Kansas (KS), Maine (ME), Massachusetts (MA), Minnesota (MN), Missouri (MO), Nevada (NV), New Hampshire (NH), New Haven (NEW_HAVEN), New Jersey (NJ), New York (NY), Rhode Island (RI), Vermont (VT), Virginia (VA), West Virginia (WV), Wisconsin (WI) and Demonstration (DEMO).
