ESSA Level Determination

This chart, available on the MAISA support page, gives an overview of ESSA levels

Resources to help identify ESSA Level

Experimental Study - experimental study is “study in which conditions are under the direct control of the investigator” (Last 2001). It is employed to test the efficacy of a preventive or therapeutic measure. Experimental studies can provide the strongest evidence about the existence of a cause-effect relationship
Quasi-experimental Study - Quasi-experimental research involves the manipulation of an independent variable without the random assignment of participants to conditions or orders of conditions. Among the important types are nonequivalent groups designs, pretest-posttest, and interrupted time-series designs.
Correlational Study - A correlational study is a type of research design where a researcher seeks to understand what kind of relationships naturally occurring variables have with one another. In simple terms, correlational research seeks to figure out if two or more variables are related and, if so, in what way.
Logic Model - A logic model is a graphic depiction (road map) that presents the shared relationships among the resources, activities, outputs, outcomes, and impact for your program. It depicts the relationship between your program's activities and its intended effects.
