"Dr. Barlow played a pivotal role in developing a robust and data-driven approach to program evaluation and test equating within the AISD Research and Accountability Department.
The methodology he implemented for evaluating the Bilingual program became a model replicated in other evaluations conducted by both myself and the research team under my direction.
Additionally, Dr. Barlow spearheaded the development of a highly refined process for equating internal assessments to the STAAR test. This innovation provided campus staff with accurate projections of student performance on STAAR, offering valuable insights for instructional planning. His exceptional combination of statistical expertise, educational experience, and leadership significantly impacted the district, leaving a lasting legacy of analytical rigor and practical application."
