Value-added modeling (also known as value-added measurement, value-added analysis and value-added assessment) is a method of teacher evaluation that measures the teacher's contribution in a given year by comparing the current test scores of their students to the scores of those same students in previous school years, as well as to the scores of other students in the same grade.
The National Board of Medical Examiners in the USA also provides progress testing in various countries [10] [11] The feasibility of an international approach to progress testing has been recently acknowledged [12] and was first demonstrated by Albano et al.
