Alignment demonstrates the linkage of the activities (student work) to the intent of the grade-level standard and indicator on which the student is being assessed. In order for an entry to be scorable, all four (4) tasks must align to the standard and indicator. Assessment tasks should be designed and task descriptions written to specifically address the standardsbased skill being evaluated. 7 Alignment–Prerequisite Skills • A prerequisite skill is one that is essential to the acquisition of the standard and indicator. Tasks submitted for the assessment can focus on prerequisite skills that allow the student to be exposed to and assessed on the standard/indicator at a level that is meaningful and purposeful for the student. • Prerequisite skills must still focus on the intent of the grade level standard and indicator. Can working on this skill eventually lead the student to the skill targeted by the standard/indicator? 8 Alignment - Choosing the Best Standard and Indicator for Assessment • Create a preliminary plan to map out the standards that are appropriate to be assessed for the student. Think about assessment tasks that will allow the student to demonstrate knowledge and achievement related to the standard. Construct assessment tasks in a format that best allows the student to demonstrate skills related to the standard. • Planning Sheets are provided beginning on page 52 of the Examiner’s Manual. 9 Alignment - the Intent of the Standard and Indicator • The intent of the standard and indicator refers to the “Big Idea”– that which they were designed to teach. e.g., MCC9-12.G.CO.7 Use the definition of congruence in terms of rigid motions to show that two triangles are congruent if and only if MCC9-12.G.CO.7 corresponding pairs of sides and corresponding pairs of angles congruent . The intent are of this Geometry standard is for the student to understand congruence in triangles. This could be achieved at an access level by the student recognizing corresponding parts of congruent triangles. 10 Completing the Entry Sheet High School and HS Retest 11 Completing the Entry Sheet for main administration High School Mathematics Select Grade at which student is FTE’d Select Content Area, RT category (if applicable), and Entry # from Drop-down menus 12 Retest categories are shown below Select Grade, Content Area, Retest Category (if applicable, Entry # (1 or 2) from Drop-downs. Proceed with selecting the standard and indicator (if applicable). 13 Coordinate Algebra 14 Sample Evidence – Math 1 Coordinate Algebra Algebra Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable. Connections to Statistics and Probability MCC9-12.S.ID.1 Represent data with plots on the real number line (dot plots, histograms, and box plots). 15 Coordinate Algebra 16 Numerical data have been correctly represented on the real number line. The dots represent the number of students and the numbers on the number line represent the number of toy cars each student has. 17 Sample Evidence – Math 1 Coordinate Algebra Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable. Algebra Connections to Statistics and Probability MCC9-12.S.ID.2 Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range) of two or more different data sets. 18 Coordinate Algebra 19 The student’s task in Collection Period 1 Primary Evidence is to calculate the means of two different data sets. He will calculate the mean number of candy canes purchased by students and by teachers. Evidence is on the following slide. 20 The student is given data and then calculates the means for each group. 21 The student is given data and then calculates the mean and median for each group. 22 Sample Entry – Math 1 Coordinate Algebra Understand the concept of a function and use function notation. Algebra and Functions MCC9-12.F.IF.2 Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context. 23 24 The student completes function tables by using function notation. The teacher assisted the student by using manipulatives to help the student visualize the count. 25 Function notation is given and the student fills in the input/output tables. 26 Sample Entry – Math 1 Coordinate Algebra Understand the concept of a function and use function notation. Algebra and Functions MCC9-12.F.IF.2 Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context. 27 We have only included Collection Period 1 Primary Evidence for this screenshot. 28 The student’s task in Collection Period 1 Primary Evidence was to represent a function (her eye color and the eye color of classmates) on a worksheet and to make a function table. 29 30 Sample Entry – Math 1 Coordinate Algebra Understand the concept of a function and use function notation. Algebra and Functions MCC9-12.F.IF.2 Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context. 31 32 The student’s task in Collection Period 1 Primary Evidence was to choose the correct function for each word problem. The student was given two choices for each of six problems. 33 11/6/2015 34 Analytic Geometry 35 Sample Entry – Math 2 Analytic Geometry Understand and apply theorems about circles. Geometry MCC9-12.G.C.2 Identify and describe relationships among inscribed angles, radii, and chords. Include the relationship between central, inscribed, and circumscribed angles; inscribed angles on a diameter are right angles; the radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent where the radius intersects the circle. 36 37 The student’s task in Collection Period 2 Secondary Evidence was to complete a test on the properties of circles. 38 11/6/2015 39 Sample Entry – Math 2 Analytic Geometry Explain volume formulas and use them to solve problems. Geometry MCC9-12.G.GMD.3 Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems. 40 41 In Collection Period 1 Secondary Evidence, the student is given the radius or diameter and is asked to calculate the volume of six spheres. The Analytic Geometry standard refers to cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres, but it is not necessary for a student to do tasks involving all aspects of the standard in order to have aligned tasks. Tasks which focus on just one aspect of the standard can be aligned. It is essential that there is a consistent skill across both collection periods. For example, do not choose to focus exclusively on cylinders in the first task, pyramids in the second task, cones in the third task, and spheres in the fourth task. An entry without a consistent skill across both collection periods will receive a “1” in Achievement/Progress. 42 Sample Entry – Math 2 Analytic Geometry Understand congruence in terms of rigid motions. Geometry MCC9-12.G.CO.6 Use geometric descriptions of rigid motions to transform figures and to predict the effect of a given rigid motion on a given figure; given two figures, use the definition of congruence in terms of rigid motions to decide if they are congruent. 43 44 The evidence is aligned because the student is determining whether two figures are congruent. 45 IDEAS 2014 Handouts on GaDOE website http://www.gadoe.org/Curriculum-Instruction-and-Assessment/Special-EducationServices/Pages/IDEAS-2014-Handouts.aspx 46 Contact Information Questions About Test Administration Call: GaDOE Assessment Administration Division Toll free (800) 634-4106 Contact: Deborah Houston, Assessment Specialist (404) 657-0251 Email: [email protected] 47 Contact Information For information about access to the state-mandated content standards for students with significant cognitive disabilities Contact: Kayse Harshaw Division for Special Education Services Call: (404) 463-5281 E-Mail: [email protected] 48 Contact Information Questions About Materials, Distribution, or Collection Call: Questar’s GAA Customer Service Toll free (866) 997-0698 Email: Questar’s GAA Customer Service [email protected] 49 Questions & Answers • Please use the link below to submit any questions you may have related to Sessions: 5 - 6. 2014 Fall Training Q&A Session: Sessions 5–6 50
