Correction: Make the “Top 13″ VAM Articles the “Top 14″
As per my most recent post earlier today, about the Top 13 research-based articles about VAMs, low and behold another great research-based statement was just this week released by the American Statistical Association (ASA), titled the “ASA Statement on Using Value-Added Models for Educational Assessment.” So, let’s make the Top 13 the Top 14 and call it a day.

Everything You Want to Know about VAM Research
A few weeks ago Diane Ravitch requested that I construct a list of the Top 10 and Top 25 research articles about VAMs, largely to inform others needing research to become more informed about (and defend themselves against) VAMs.
In turn, I constructed two lists in response: the Top 13 and Top 25. A few days ago, she posted these lists in a blog post titled “Everything You Want to Know about VAM Research,” so I thought I should send these out here, as well, for those who might have missed them.
You can find the Top 13 articles here, and the Top 25 here.
I also have two other running lists that currently include one list that includes the 17 articles published in the top journals sponsored by the American Educational Research Association (AERA), and another list that includes, thus far, 69 research articles that I’ve simply termed as all “good” articles about VAMs.
Hope this helps!!
