Data SGP is an online tool designed to increase players’ chances of winning the lottery. By using past results as predictive data, it identifies likely groupings of numbers, reducing guesswork when choosing numbers. With Data sgp players can increase their odds by selecting fewer numbers and increasing combinations instead. It is particularly useful for reducing risk by restricting how much they spend per ticket purchase.
Students are ranked according to their growth in comparison with students with similar prior test scores (their academic peers). SGPs are reported as percentile rankings rather than absolute scaled scores; for example, an 85 on an MCAS assessment reflects more growth than approximately 85 percent of their academic peers.
Teachers and administrators use Student Growth Profiles (SGPs) to measure whether students grew more than, less than, or as expected. Furthermore, SGPs offer an unbiased snapshot of student progress over time by showing current growth information for individual students. There are two forms of SGP data available for analysis: Window Specific SGPs that compare growth over different windows of time and Current SGPs that serve as simple checks-in on student development.
The Exemplar Data Set “sgpData” is an anonymized panel data set comprising five years of annual vertically scaled assessment data in WIDE format, designed as an example for use with lower level studentGrowthPercentiles and studentGrowthProjections functions. The first column, ID, provides unique student identifiers; columns 2-5 (SS_2013 – 2016) provide numeric assessment scores in each year; with column 6 (SS_2017) providing latest assessment scores for 2017 assessments.
sgptData_LONG is an anonymized panel data set with assessment data in LONG format from 8 windows (3 windows annually) across three content areas for three assessments. The set contains 7 required variables plus one extra DATE field that indicates when assessments were completed by students.
These data sets are usually employed with the lower level function studentGrowthProjections, which creates individual student aggregates by combining current SGP rankings and future estimated performance levels into an SGP aggregate. The prepareSGP function condenses this 6-step process into one function call to facilitate operational analyses; both sgptData_LONG and sgpData_INSTRUCTOR_NUMBER contain all the variables necessary for running student growth projections using lower-level functions.
