Row totals in Column D are calculated using the following formula: D = Column C/ Column D
* See definitions of core outcome measures in Table 5.
** Achievement of one or more of the increased involvement in children's education or children's literacy activities measures should be counted in this row only once per participant. However, the specific outcome should be recorded in the subcategory and more than one outcome may be reported, so that the total for the three subcategories may be greater than the total reported for the overall category. For example, a participant who helped more frequently with school work and increased contact with child's teachers would be recorded in both categories but would be counted only once in the overall category of "increased involvement in children's education."
*** Column B for Completed an education functioning level totals the number of learners with paired test data.
The numbers for this table are based on data furnished by local providers. This data includes reasons for enrollment and other demographic information from the Student Entry Record, given upon entry into program, and information from the Student Update Record, given at time of exit from program or at the end of the program year. A database will be created with social security numbers for cross-referencing.
