Question
Is DORA helpful for English Learners?
 
Answer
Yes, DORA is extremely helpful for English Learners who have been in the country for only a few months or for several years. Basically, DORA is a multiple-measure assessment and the sub-tests evaluated by it are important in diagnosing how students are progressing in their learning-to-read process.

In addition, we have many school districts that use DORA as one of two measures for EL reclassification. Once students receive an "H" profile on DORA, their reading is tagged as proficient. Prior to that point, DORA provides genuine diagnostic data for teachers to use to guide their instruction. Parents and students also receive reports that help them understand where the student is in his or her process of learning to read.

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.
