Most assessments, in the education realm and beyond, are for the benefit of those conducting the assessments. When the CALL Team developed the Data Feedback System, we wanted to ensure that the data and feedback would benefit those who are being assessed: in this case, the school leaders. Therefore, depending on the version of CALL they are using, users will find embedded feedback in the reporting system. For example, users of WestEd's Four Domains CALL will find detailed guidance for next steps. For each subdomain practice, the system provides research-based strategies and suggestions to support the effort of making progress in that given area.
For other versions of CALL that do not provide strategies and suggestions, users are recommended to use the CALL AI function for feedback and guidance for next steps.
To be sure, the implementation of the embedded strategies, suggestions, and resources does not guarantee immediate desired results; however, they do provide guidance to school leaders on next steps and provides a level of support not commonly found in assessment systems.
