  1. K-12 Curriculum UpdatesDr. Constance Tuman-RuggFebruary 9, 2010

  2. FCAT Updates Spring 2010 Retakes • The summer retake will not be administered for the foreseeable future. • Spring and Fall retakes will continue—Beginning in Spring 2010, retakes will have a computer based option.

  3. 2010 FCAT MathematicsGrades 3-10 • Tests in Grades 3-10 and Retakes are constructed to align with 1996 SSS • 2007 standards (NGSSS) • will be field tested within the tests • Performance tasks appear in Grades 5, 8, and 10 on the 2010 tests • (But no Science Performance tasks this year.)

  4. 2010 FCAT Mathematics • Rulers will be provided for use on the second session of the Grade 3 and 4 tests. (Exception: Calibration schools) • Gridded-response items appear in Gr 4 for the first time. (Field Test items only) • Grade 4 sessions increased to 70 minutes each.

  5. 2010 FCAT Mathematics • New and old grid types will be used in Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10. • New grids are used in Field Test Items only. See Learning Village Grade Level Pages for further information and examples. Grid changes vary at each grade level.

  6. 2010 FCAT Mathematics • New reference sheets in Grades 5, 6-8 & 10 (See samples in newly released Sample Tests and on Learning Village) • Old reference sheet will be used for Grade 9 and Retakes. • Four-function calculator will be used in Grades 7-10 (as in the past)

  7. Algebra I End-of-Course (EOC)May 2010 Field Test • Computer based field test items • MC and Fill-in items only • A representative sample of schools • All grade 9 students and Algebra 1 students in grades 10-12 • New reference sheet • Four-function calculator online tool • Assessment derived from Course Description: Algebra 1 - 1200310

  8. Geometry End-of-Course (EOC)May 2010 Field Test • Computer based field test items • MC and Fill-in items only • A representative sample of schools • All grade 9-12 Geometry students in the selected schools • New reference sheet • Scientific calculator as an online tool • Assessment derived from Course Description: Geometry - 1206310

  9. New!!! Student Fills-In Answer Algebra 1 and Geometry EOC Exams Online practice sessions will be available from DOE soon!!

  10. Next year:2010-11

  11. Spring 2011 April 11-22, 2011 Grades 3-10 Reading and Math Grades 5,8, and 11 FCAT Science May 16-27, 2011 Algebra 1 EOC Exam Geometry EOC Exam

  12. FCAT II MathematicsSpring 2011 test for Grades 3-8 • Will assess the 2007 standards (NGSSS) • Will not include performance tasks • Will use new reference sheets • Four-function calculator will be used in grades 7 & 8 (not a change) • Baseline year; first student scores reported on the new test

  13. End-of-Course AssessmentsSchedule of Implementation All are computer based with field testing designated as FT. FT in selected schools only.

  14. Math EOC Assessments & Graduation Requirements are PENDING LEGISLATION • What we know for sure: • EOC Assessments are proposed • Field Testing is planned in anticipation of passage of legislation • Current grade 9 students and maybe 2010 incoming Grade 9 students will be administered the FCAT I Retake as a graduation requirement

  15. Biology • The Biology End of Course Exam (EOC) • field tested in select schools spring of 2011. • Pending legislation, it will eventually replace the current 11th Grade FCAT Science. • Current FCAT Science will continue to be given in 11th grade in Spring 2010 and Spring 2011.
