  6. Chapter Two – The Power of Two When we look at both measures independently, what does it tell us about the situation of a school?

  7. Chapter Three – Interpreting Results How are standardized test scores used to produce a Value-Added estimate?

  8. Chapter Three – Interpreting Results Value-Added is a relative measure. How do I compare my results to the average?

  9. Chapter Four – Factors Influencing Growth There are many factors the may influence growth. Why does Value-Added control for some of them and not others?
