Report Card Grades

Background: The Global Matrix 3.0 brings together the Report Card grades for 10 physical activity indicators for children and youth from 49 countries. This study describes and compares the Global Matrix 3.0 findings among 10 countries with high Human Development Index. Methods: Report Cards on physical activity indicators were developed by each country following a harmonized process. Countries informed their Report Cards with the best and most recent evidence available. Indicators were graded using a common grading rubric and benchmarks established by the Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance. A database of grades from the countries was compiled, and letter grades were converted to numerical equivalents. Descriptive statistics and scores for groups of indicators were calculated, and correlation analyses were conducted. Results: Grades for the 10 countries clustered around “D” ranging from “F” to “B+.” Active Transportation had the highest average grade (“C”), whereas Overall Physical Activity had the lowest average grade (“D-”). Low grades were observed for both behavioral and sources of influence indicators. Conclusions: In the context of social and economical changes of high- Human Development Index countries, urgent actions to increase physical activity among children and youth are required. Surveillance and monitoring efforts are required to fill research gaps.

Market Shares

SummaryThis paper examines, whether well prepared report cards affect hospital choice within Germany. We report three main findings. First: hospitals, which publish their quality data voluntarily, extend their market shares after relative to before publishing the quality data - compared to such hospitals that do not publish their quality data. Second: in the group of the publishing hospitals, hospitals with a higher than average quality increased their market shares after relative to before the adoption of the report card - compared to hospitals with a lower than average quality. Third: hospitals with quality below average are basically chosen by patients living nearby and not by those with a higher travelling distance. Based on these finding decision makers in hospitals have strong incentives (i) to make quality information publicly available and (ii) to keep their quality scores high.

The quality of students in school has a lot of diversity, this makes students have different levels of understanding. This can be seen from the variety of student scores obtained on report card scores, this needs to be a concern for the school, especially teachers. One of them is by forming effective study groups so that every student has the opportunity to excel. So this research was carried out with the aim of helping schools, especially teachers, to map student study groups evenly based on student report cards obtained in Semester I to Semester IV. The method used was clustering with the K-Means algorithm on the report card scores of Class IX.C students at SMP Pembangunan Laboratorium UNP. The results in this study obtained 3 clusters of students, namely students with High Achievement, Achievement and Less Achievement. This research can be used as a guide for teaching teachers in making decisions about the formation of student study groups in Class IX.C.

SMA Tunas Mekar Indonesia is one of Lampung Province schools that uses the 2013 curriculum. The assessment reporting process of student learning skills and achievement by teachers uses report cards that are distributed to parents at the end of each semester. In the managing the report card data process, there are several obstacles, namely the obstruction of grade recapitulation because the subject teacher is late in sending student grades, it takes a long time in managing grades because the processing value data done repeatedly from the attendance recap report then the application of Microsoft Excel and the report books are recapitulated by staff allows data writing errors. The solution developed for this problem is to build a Web-Based E-Report Card Application that will help SMA Tunas Mekar Indonesia by simplifying and accelerating teachers and homeroom teachers in assessing student learning outcomes reports process on inputting student scores. In this application, teachers and homeroom teachers no longer need to send assessment data via email, because the data entered is already integrated with other data. So that it doesn't take a long time to enter student grades, and minimize the damage and loss of report card data. The application built has provided complete information regarding student report card information and helps schools in reporting student grades based on the testing results using ISO 25010 standart with a percentage of success with a total average of 92.82%.

IntroductionReport cards or scorecards typically reflect one particular sector along the care continuum; however, stroke patients typically require acute care, inpatient rehabilitation and community care highlighting the need to link data sources to demonstrate the interdependencies between and across sectors. Objectives and Approach1) Identify stroke best practice indicators from across the care continuum; 2) develop a one page report card that reports on the quality of the stroke system of care through data linkage and 3) visually impactful knowledge translation tool. The indicators cover five health care sectors starting with pre-hospital stroke symptom onset, then to management of the acute event, to institutional and community-based rehabilitative care, reintegration into the community and secondary prevention. The report card is a knowledge translation tool that identifies gaps in best practice, provides achievable benchmarks of regional and provincial stroke system performance to drive system change. ResultsUsing data linkage techniques, seven administrative datasets are used to populate the 20 indicators in the annual Ontario stroke report card. Indicator performance was trended by comparing the previous 3 years’ results to the most recent year of data. Fifteen of 17 indicators improved (11 statistically significant) compared to the previous three years and 2 indicators did not change / declined. Performance benchmarks were calculated using Achievable Benchmarks of Care™ methodology and 14 of 16 performance benchmarks improved since 2014/15. There was wide variation across indicators with only 4 indicators showing a reduction in regional variation. The Ontario stroke report card can be viewed at https://www.ices.on.ca/Publications/Atlases-and-Reports/2017/Stroke-Report-Cards. Conclusion/ImplicationsThe Ontario stroke report card spans the stroke care continuum, provides a snapshot of Ontario’s stroke system performance. Data linkage is essential for a system-wide opportunity to evaluate and influence system performance. This cross-continuum approach and report card format could be applied to other health related conditions.

Get With The Guidelines

Background and Purpose: Hospitals’ communication with EMS on pre-arrival evidence based measures is essential in ensuring the best care for stroke patients in their community. To assist in assessing EMS pre-hospital care, the Wisconsin Coverdell Stroke Program (Coverdell) developed a quarterly report card for each of our participating hospitals. Coverdell’s 66 participating hospitals represent 78% of annual stroke admissions to Wisconsin hospitals. Coverdell utilizes the data entered into Get With The Guidelines® (GWTGs) - Special Initiatives tab. The data in the report card can be used to identify gaps in quality stroke care, followed by identifying performance improvement opportunities which can be initiated to address these gaps in care. Methods: Coverdell hospitals participate in the quarterly Coverdell Learning Collaborative (CLC) where they review several aggregated data points. CLC recognized a report card would provide an opportunity for participating hospitals to discuss the pre-arrival quality measures with their EMS providers and assist in developing a trusting relationship. To develop the report card, Coverdell’s Epidemiologist and Stroke Project Specialist analyzed the data measures from the GWTGs- Special Initiatives tab. We determined the need to provide benchmark groups for comparison, and to have established goals for each measure to assist in motivating and gauging progress of quality improvement initiatives. Findings: Coverdell released the pilot quarterly report card in Q3 2018. We then met with Stroke Coordinators whose hospitals were entering into the GWTGs Special Initiatives tab to discuss the goals, measures, and the need for modifications. The Q4 2018 report card incorporated the identified edits. Conclusion: Providing quarterly report cards with EMS pre-arrival measures will assist hospitals and their EMS providers in jointly identifying, planning, and implementing performance improvement initiatives in efforts to ensure seamless transitions of care for stroke patients in their community.

Background Publicly available report cards for transplant centers emphasize posttransplant survival and obscure the fact that some centers reject many of the donor organs they are offered (reflecting a conservative donor acceptance strategy), while others accept a broader range of donor offers (reflecting an open donor acceptance strategy). Objective We assessed how the provision of salient information about donor acceptance practices and waitlist survival rates affected evaluation judgments of hospital report cards given by laypeople and medical trainees. Methods We tested 5 different report card formats across 4 online randomized experiments ( n1 = 1,003, n2 = 105, n3 = 123, n4 = 807) in the same hypothetical decision. The primary outcome variable was a binary choice between transplant hospitals (one with an open donor acceptance strategy and the other with a conservative donor acceptance strategy). Results Report cards featuring salient information about donor organ utilization rates (transplant outcomes categorized by quality of donor offers accepted) or overall survival rates (outcomes from both waitlist and transplanted patients) led lay participants (studies 1, 3, and 4) and medical trainees (study 2) to evaluate transplant centers with open donor acceptance strategies more favorably than centers with conservative strategies. Limitations Due to the nature of the decision, a hypothetical scenario was necessary for both ethical and practical reasons. Results may not generalize to transplant clinicians or patients faced with the decision of where to join the transplant waitlist. Conclusions These findings suggest that performance evaluations for transplant centers may vary significantly based not only on what outcome information is presented in report cards but also how the information is displayed.
