do this: We began the discussion about correlations and their use in class. Your level of proficiency in the various examples and samples shared in class led us to come up with a common assignment for the cohort. Your second reflection is to focus on developing a study to investigate the relationship between end-of-year student grades and the MAAP assessment outcomes for your teachers. Would you expect to find a strong correlation between the two? (I hope so - I would expect something exceptionally strong). We looked at this in class and decided this would be a workable assignment. If you happen to be at an elementary school, you are loaded with data opportunities (yes, even K-2 schools). Middle schools are well situated as well. High schools will be limited to using only the core curriculum teachers and their students (places you can get MAAP data for). You are to run a Pearson Correlation (r) on the student grades (both classroom level and end of year scores in quantitative form, not a letter grade) from the previous year against the MAAP level of achievement attained. To do this, you will need the data from the previous school year (2020-2021). The
