Scoring the Mathematics Collection of Evidence

1. Scoring the Mathematics Collection of Evidence Kim Andersen, COE Mathematics Specialist April 3, 2013

2. Topics to be covered today Scoring training Scoring process Let’s take a look at a student matrix “total score” Reminder on what is coming up next – augmentation & submission schedule

3. Scoring the COE Professional scorers Train using an exemplar paper, student responses, and a task-specific rubric Scorers must qualify to score Ongoing validity and inter-rater reliability checks Calibration training as needed Score each question within a task independently “Burst” scoring – score a single task at a time No scorer ever views a complete COE at one time

4. How do we arrive at a total student score? Collections are “burst” scored, scored one task at a time. Each part of the task is scored independently. Each task in a collection is scored independently. Many scorers will have scored a single collection. When all tasks in a collection are scored, the student will receive a total score which represents their ‘best work’ for the collection

5. Total Score Points Year One total possible score 32 points Year Two total possible score is 24 points

6. Let’s look at a possible student collection matrix

7. State PerformanceStandard “Cut Score” Set The week of March 25-29 two committees of educators from across the state met to determine the recommendedYear One & Year Two Cut scores for the Mathematics COE Their recommendations were sent to the Washington State Board of Education The State Board met on Friday March 29th and adopted the recommendations from the two committees

8. Year One & Year Two Cut Scoresfor the Collection of Evidence The Year One “Cut Score” is 24 points out of 32. This means a student must earn 24 out of 32 points on a Year 1 Math COE to meet standard or demonstrate proficiency. The Year Two “Cut Score” is 14 points out of 24. This means a student must earn 14 out of 24 points on the Year 2 Math COE to meet standard or demonstrateproficiency.

9. Augmentation Process Students not meeting standard, but within augmentation band, may submit 4 new tasks for scoring. The augmentation band for both Year 1 & Year 2 Math COE’s is 2 points. These new tasks, combined with the original COE, are used to determine whether the student meets standard. Students get a single opportunity to augment.

10. Reading, Writing, and Mathematics Submission Dates May 1, 2013 Students in the graduating cohort of 2013 or earlier who meet the augmentation eligibility requirements from the January/February 2013 scoring window and 12th grade students who meet eligibility requirements in reading, writing, and/or math have a one-timeopportunity to submit a full Collection of Evidence June 12, 2013 All students who meet all eligibility requirements in reading, writing and/or mathematics
