Question
What is the grade level criteria for the ADAM performance band report?
 
Answer
Description of each Band for the 4 Band Report Option

Above: One or more year above grade level
Proficient: Greater than 0.25 years below grade level to less than 1 year above
Approaching Proficient: between .99 to 0.25 below grade level.
Emergent: One or more years below grade level

Technical Definition of Bands:
Student's ADAM grade-level score minus their decimal grade level is the student's GAP.

Above: GAP greater than equal to 1
Proficient: GAP greater than -0.25 AND GAP less than 1
Approaching Proficient: GAP greater than -1 AND GAP less than equal to -0.25
Emergent: GAP less than equal to -1

Example, John is mid-way through the fifth grade so his grade is 5.5. He has a Total ADAM score of 4.75. Thus, his GAP is 4.75 - 5.5 = -0.75. He would fall into the "Approaching Proficient" band.

Description of each Band for the 3 Band Report Option

Above: One or more year above grade level
Proficient: Greater than 0.25 years below grade level to less than 1 year above
Emergent: 0.25 or more below grade level.

Technical Definition of Bands:
Student's ADAM grade-level score minus their decimal grade level is the student's GAP.

Above: GAP greater than equal to 1
Proficient: GAP greater than -0.25 AND GAP less than 1
Emergent: GAP less than equal to -0.25

Note: There are two modes that this report can be run under. Relative uses decimal grades for the GAP calculation. Absolute uses the integer grade of the student (grade with no decimal value) for the GAP calculation.

When you bring additional fields into a conversion, Quickbase often finds inconsistencies. For example, say you're converting your Companies column into its own table. One company, Acme Corporation, has offices in New York, Dallas and Portland. So, when you add the City column to the conversion, Quickbase finds three different locations for Acme. A single value in the column you're converting can only match one value in any additional field. Quickbase needs you to clean up the extra cities before it can create your new table. To do so, you have one of two choices:

  • If you want to create three separate Acme records (Acme-New York, Acme-Dallas and Acme-Portland) click the Conform link at the top of the column.
  • If the dissimilar entries are mistakes (say Acme only has one office in New York and the other locations are data-entry errors) go back into your table and correct the inconsistencies—in this case, changing all locations to New York. Then try the conversion again.
