Colleges support students with advising, counseling, or coaching in academics and other skills they need to succeed in school. Some colleges enhance those services through reduced adviser caseloads and more comprehensive, frequent guidance, which can improve students' semester-to-semester retention and average credits earned. This overview…

This paper reviews recent research on causal inference with large-scale assessments in education from a Bayesian perspective. I begin by adopting the potential outcomes model of Rubin ("J Educ Psychol" 66:688-701, 1974) as a framework for causal inference that I argue is appropriate with large-scale educational assessments. I then…

Multilevel modeling (MLM) is a term that encompasses many terms for statistical analyses that include variables at different levels. In education it is generally referred to as hierarchical linear modeling (HLM), linear mixed modeling (LMM), or growth curve modeling, but also includes terms such as: random-coefficient regression modeling,…

Language placement tests (LPTs) are used to assess students' proficiency in a progressive manner in the target language. Based on their performance, students are assigned to stepped language courses. These tests are usually considered low stakes because they do not have significant consequences in students' lives, which is perhaps the reason why…
