  1. OCS: Putting the Assessment Pieces Together Dr. Marilynn Kulieke Rosemary Jacot GAINS Education Group CAC Meeting October 1, 2019

  2. OCS Reading Standards Important Standards Addressed by Aspire • Key Ideas and Details (KID) • Craft and Structure (CAS) • Integration of Knowledge and Ideas (IKI) Important Standards but Not Addressed by Aspire • Foundational Skills: Print Concepts, Phonological Awareness, Phonics and Word Recognition, Fluency

  3. Summative and Formative Assessments

  4. ACT Aspire-Aligned Assessments

  5. OCS Assessments Measure the Common Core State Standards Key Ideas and Details: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.3.1Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers.

  6. OCS Assessments Measure Specific Skills Framework for Assessments

  7. ACT Aspire Assessment: Summative (Required) The main use of the summative Aspire test is to evaluate overall reading achievement over time. Limitations: small number of items, not available below Grade 3, results are not benchmark-based, are given in a constrained time period, timed test problematic completion, results are delayed

  8. OCS Proficiency Scale Assessment (Introduced) Target goals: Demonstrate written and spoken understanding of a text. Create questions based on key details about the text. Use text evidence to support understanding and responses. The main purpose of the Proficiency Scales is to provide an overall evaluation of a student skills on reading tasks related to priority standards. Limitation: Doesn’t provide teachers with information on skills, requires training for consistent ratings and the development of tasks, covers a broad range of skills

  9. GAINS Formative Assessments K-8 (Optional) The main purpose of the Formatives is to analyze student performance three times a year for progress monitoring of skills related to the Aspire summative test. Supporting the OCS priority standards, the school receives benchmark-based reports, school, classroom, and individual reports. Limitations: Takes time to administer; requires teacher training to fully utilize reports in teaching; open ended items are scored by teachers  

  10. Aspire Interim Assessments 3-8 (Optional) The main purpose of the ACT Interims is to analyze student performance four times a year in preparation for the Aspire summative test. Limitations: Not based on the priority standards; does not report on specific benchmarks that can be used in instruction 

  11. i-Ready Assessments K-8 (Optional) The main purpose of i-Ready is to individualize adaptive instruction. Limitations: Not closely aligned to the Common Core; is not specific to the OCS Priority Standards.

  12. GAINS Quizlet Assessments K-8 (Available) The main purpose of the GAINS quizzes is to monitor student progress on the OCS priority standards. Teacherscan modify the Word documents to create their own quizzes. Limitations: Teacher scored

  13. Teacher-Created Assessments K-8 (Teacher Discretion) The main purpose of a teacher created quiz is to give a snapshot of students’ performance on an instructional lesson or unit. Limitations: May be not be based on OCS benchmarks; item quality can vary; difficult to use for progress monitoring

  14. Aspire Classroom Assessments 3-8 (Optional) The main purpose of the Aspire Classroom Assessments is to familiarize students with the Aspire. Limitations: Too few items lead to poor reliability and limited application to instruction.

  15. Create a few notes what you notice and what you still wonder about the ACT Aspire-Aligned Assessments

  16. Introducing the OCS Standards and Benchmarks for Reading Literature and Text Includes ACT Aspire Performance Level Descriptors at Reading Level (PLD) and OCS Proficiency Target Goals with Their Rating

  17. OCS Standards and Benchmarks for Reading Literature and Text Includes ACT Aspire Performance Level Descriptors at Reading Level (PLD) and OCS Proficiency Target Goals with Their Rating

  18. Performance Level Descriptors for each category at each grade level 3-8 • ACT PDL To demonstrate comprehension of texts with these elements, a student performing at this level: • identifies central ideas. • summarizes texts. • connects ideas, events, and characters to make logical inferences. • uses key details to draw conclusions about character traits and actions.

  19. OCS Standards • Standards from CCSS and the unpacked benchmarks OCS Standard from CCSS Unpacked Benchmarks from the OCS Standard Priority Standard

  20. Target goals: • Demonstrate written and spoken understanding of a text. • Create questions based on key details about the text. • Use text evidence to support understanding and responses. • OCS Target Goals • Level 3 (Target Goals) are included for each priority standard

  21. Create a few notes what you notice and what you still wonder about the OCS Standards and Benchmarks.
