  16. Remediation Retest Roster Provided for each content area test. Lists all students who did not pass along with scale score and domain/strand performance.

  17. Student Achievement Roster Lists all students by school and provides scale score and performance level. Final page of roster provides school achievement summary.

  18. Information presented at the top is based on 11th grade, regular program students who are first time examinees Information at the bottom includes ALL grade 11 test-takers. Presents summary data for the school, system, RESA, and state. Content Summary

  19. Classification Report ▪ Provided at the school and system level. ▪Includes performance data for ALL students, regular program, special education, and ELL students. ▪Also provides summary results for students attempting 2 or more times.

  20. Georgia High School Writing Test • The current GHSWT will remain in effect during the 2006-2007 school year (includes Fall 2006, Spring 2007, Summer 2007 administrations). • The Fall 2006 main administration date is September 27. The Fall 2006 make-up date is September 28. • The new GHSWT will not become operational until the Fall of 2007.

  21. GHSWT - 2006-2007 • The assessment is a test of persuasive writing. • Four writing domains are scored analytically, with each contributing a specific weight to the total score. • Content/Organization (40%) • Style (20%) • Conventions of Written Language (20%) • Sentence Formation (20%) • Scale scores range from 400-600. • Passing = Scale score of 500 or higher.

  22.

  23. GHSWT Reports and rosters provided will be similar to those provided for GHSGT. Be sure to check for this on each student.

  24. EOCT (End-of-Course Tests) • The purpose of the EOCT is to assess student achievement of the Georgia QCC/GPS in core courses and to provide diagnostic data in support of improved student achievement.

  25. EOCT Assessments • American Literature and Composition • Ninth Grade Literature and Composition • Algebra I • Geometry • Biology • Physical Science • United States • Economics/Business/Free Enterprise

  26. Ninth Grade Literature & Composition (GPS) Reading & Literature Reading, Listening, Speaking, & Viewing Across the Curriculum Writing Conventions American Literature & Composition (GPS) Reading & American Literature Reading, Listening, Speaking, & Viewing Across the Curriculum Writing Conventions Domains

  27. Algebra I (QCC) Algebraic Fundamentals Operations on Numbers & Expressions Equations & Inequalities Functions & Graphs Connections & Applications Geometry (QCC) Logic & Reasoning Points, Lines, Planes, & Angles Congruence & Similarity Polygons & Circles Perimeter, Area, & Volume Coordinate, Transformational, & Three-Dimensional Geometry Domains

  28. Biology (GPS) -Cells -Organisms -Genetics -Ecology -Evolution Physical Science (GPS) -Chemistry: Atomic and Nuclear Theory and the Periodic Table -Chemistry: Chemical Reactions and Properties of Matter -Physics: Energy, Force, and Motion -Physics: Waves, Electricity, and Magnetism Domains

  29. United States History (QCC) -Social Studies Skills: Maps, Timelines, & Research -Colonization to the Constitution -A New Nation (1790-1860) -Civil War, Reconstruction, & the Industrial Age (1860-1910) -World Power & Domestic Reform (1896-1940) -The Modern Era (1940-Present) Economics/Business/ Free Enterprise (QCC) -Economic Concepts -Producers & Consumers -Microeconomics: Elements in the Marketplace -Macroeconomics: The National Economy -The International Economy Domains

  30. EOCT Courses to be Tested • If a student is earning graduation credit for one of the EOCT courses, he/she must take the EOCT. Example: The student is taking Applied Biology and will receive Biology credit for graduation. The student must participate in the Biology EOCT.

  31. EOCT Students to be Tested • Any student, regardless of grade level, enrolled in an EOCT course • Middle School students enrolled in an EOCT course, whether or not they receive HS credit for the class • Students taking a college course, an online course, or a correspondence class who are receiving credit towards graduation for an EOCT course • Systems/schools are responsible for approving courses that meet the QCC/GPS objectives for the course in which the student is earning credit • Level the field for all students regarding high school issues (e.g., class rank, eligibility, etc.)

  32. EOCT • The EOCT is the final exam for the course • The EOCT will count as 15% of the student’s final course grade (15% EOCT score/85% course grade = final grade) • Online courses, correspondence courses, PSO courses • After the EOCT & course grade are combined to create the final course grade, students must have attained at least a 70 to pass the course. • Student scores are a part of the student transcript. The EOCT score must be “on, in, or with the student report card.”

  33. Scale Score Ranges and Cut Points Minimum & Maximum Scale Scores Differ by Content Area • QCC Scale Score Range 400-950 • Below 600 ‘Does Not Meet the Standard’ • 600-629 ‘Meets the Standard’ • 630 and above ‘Exceeds the Standard’ • GPS Scale Score Range 200-750 • Below 400 ‘Does Not Meet the Standard’ • 400-449 ‘Meets the Standard’ • 450 and above ‘Exceeds the Standard’

  34. Individual Student Report • Student name, class, school, system, and test date • Content Area • Scale score with performance bar • Performance Level – Does Not Meet, Meets, Exceeds • Grade Conversion Score – to be used in final grade calculation • State Target Performance • Performance Level Description • Domain Descriptions – Points possible/Points correct

  35. Class Roster Report

  36. Class Summary Report • Student Group • 2) Number of Students Tested • 3) Mean Scale Score • 4) Percent Pass • 5) Performance Levels

  37. Content Area Summary Report • Number of Students Tested • Mean Scale Score for School, System, RESA, & State • Content Area & Domain Description • Number of Items in Each Domain • Mean Number of Items Answered Correctly by Students comprising the School, System, RESA, & State

  38. CRCT • The CRCT is designed to measure how well students acquire the skills and knowledge described in the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) and the Quality Core Curriculum (QCC).
