  2. 2013-14: Evolving Towards Smarter Balanced

  3. 2013-14: Evolving Towards Smarter Balanced

  4. Moving Beyond 2013-14…

  5. HS Testing for Graduation (new June 30, 2013) Graduation Assessment Requirements • Class of 2014 • HSPE Reading*, HSPE Writing*, 1 EOC Math** • Classes of 2015 – 2018 • ELA exit exam, 1 EOC Math exit exam, EOC Biology • Class of 2019 and beyond • College and Career Ready Tests in ELA, Math, Science (Biology or NGSS) * HSPE last administered in August 2014 ** Current math EOC exams last administered in January 2015

  6. Assessment High School Graduation Requirements by Class

  7. New Graduation Requirements: ELA * Reading and Writing HSPE last available in August 2014. ** This test is not available until spring 2015.

  8. New Graduation Requirements: Math * This test will be last administered in winter 2015 ** This test is not available until spring 2015..

  9. New Graduation Requirements * Until Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are adopted, implemented and assessed, students will be required to pass the Biology EOC. After NGSS are adopted, implemented and assessed, they will be required to pass a Comprehensive NGSS Test. The for NGSS is undetermined.

  10. Summative Assessments in 2014–15 and beyond

  11. Smarter Balanced:Field Test and Beyond Teaching and Learning Network, ESD 113

  12. Improving Teaching & Learning Summative: College and career readiness assessments for accountability Teachers and schools have information and tools they need to improve teaching and learning All students leave high school college and career ready Common Core State Standards specify K-12 expectations for college and career readiness Formative resources: Supporting classroom-based assessments to improve instruction Interim: Flexible and open assessments, used for actionable feedback 12

  13. Summative Assessments for Accountability • Coverage of full breadth/depth of Common Core • Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) • Precise assessment of all students • More engaging assessment experience • Performance Tasks – real world problems Formative Tools and Resources for Improved Instruction • Digital library gives access to high-quality resources • Tools/materials for classroom-based assessments • Professional social networking (Web-based PLCs) • Useful for in-service and pre-service development ✔ Balanced Assessment Interim Assessments to Signal Improvement • Optional for district, school or classroom use • Fully aligned with Common Core – same item pool • Focus on set of standards or clone summative test • Teachers can review and score responses ✔ ✔

  14. What is Smarter Balanced? • A consortium of 26 states and territories working together to build next-generation formative, interim and summative assessments for K-12 schools tied to the Common Core State Standards in English language arts/literacy and mathematics.

  15. Major Milestones in Development of Summative Assessments ✔ ✔ ✔ Full system run-through; Establish performance standards Early Q.C. of items & software; no student results

  16. Ongoing Involvement • Pilot Test in spring 2013 involved over 650,000 students from all Smarter Balanced states (5% of WA) • Field Tests in spring 2014 will involve over two million students in all Smarter Balanced states (~33% of WA in Gr 3-8, and ~11% in HS) • Standard setting in fall 2014 will invite all teachers to participate in virtual “crowdsourcing” • Operational Tests in Spring 2015 (99% of WA)

  17. Field Testing • March - June 2014 • Sampling about 20% of students in Consortium • Purpose: Evaluate items and tasks for Smarter Balanced pool… • Statistical data analysis of 20,000+ items • Divide items/tasks into secure (summative) pool and open (interim) pool • Conduct standard setting for different performance levels (“cut scores”) • US Dept. of Ed flexibility to avoid double testing • Still waiting for approval 17

  18. Who is Participating in Field Test in WA? • 180 districts • 400 elementary schools • 150 middle schools • 150 high schools (will be double testing) • 5 elementary and middle schools in improvement have chosen to double test (MSP and field test) • Recommend double testing schools do field test online and MSP as paper/pencil

  19. Smarter Balanced Field Testing • What about in High Schools? • All students need access to current tests (HSPEs & EOCs) for graduation • All 10thgraders will take Reading and Writing HSPE • All 10thgraders will take Year 1 Math EOC (unless previously passed) • All 10th graders will take Biology EOC (unless previously passed) • Students who have previously not met standard can retake any or all • Field testing on Smarter Balanced CCR is for grades 9, 10, 11(Math and/or ELA)

  20. 2013-14 Smarter Balanced Field Testing Basics • Field tests will be online; no paper pencil option • Field tests will not be adaptive • No scores or other results will be available for individual students; no school, district or state results For information on the field test, go to: http://www.k12.wa.us/SMARTER/Tests.aspx. For access to archived webinars, go to: http://www.k12.wa.us/SMARTER/Webinars.aspx.

  21. Estimated Testing Times for 2014 Field Test and 2015 Operational Assessment Times are estimates of test length for most students. Smarter Balanced assessments are designed as untimed tests; some students may need and should be afforded more time than shown in this table.

  22. You Can Peek Under the Hood…The Smarter Balanced Practice Test • Shows item types and tools/features • Now availablefor all grades (3-8, 11) • English language arts and math • Expanded features released over the summer Practice Test Link http://sbac.portal.airast.org/Practice_Test/default.html

  23. What will the school year look like (starting 2014-15)? English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, Grades 3-8 and High School School Year Last 12 weeks of the year* DIGITAL CLEARINGHOUSE OF FORMATIVE TOOLS, PROCESSES AND EXEMPLARS Released items and tasks; Model curriculum units; Educator training; Professional development tools and resources; Scorer training modules; Teacher collaboration tools; Evaluation of publishers’ assessments. Optional Interim Assessment Optional Interim Assessment • PERFORMANCE TASKS • ELA/Literacy • Mathematics • COMPUTER ADAPTIVE TESTS • ELA/Literacy • Mathematics Computer Adaptive Assessment and Performance Tasks Computer Adaptive Assessment and Performance Tasks Re-take option Scope, sequence, number and timing of interim assessments locally determined *Time windows may be adjusted based on results from the research agenda and final implementation decisions.

  24. What will this cost? • Smarter Balanced tests will cost the state about $30 per student • Includes both ELA and math • Includes digital library and interim assessments • Current Reading, Writing, and Math tests are about $30 per test, or $60-$90 per student • It will cost another $20 per student for state developed exit exams

  25. Collection of Evidence

  26. Policies • A student can submit only one COE per content area (reading, writing, mathematics, and/or biology) during their high school career. • Students may begin to compile a COE while enrolled in Algebra/Int I, Geometry/Int 2, and/or Biology. • Only students who meet the eligibility criteria, including two attempts on the HSPE or EOC for a content area, may submit a COE.

  27. Request for Access Appeal A 12th grade student has attempted the HSPE or EOC only one time rather than the two attempts required to access the COEmay be eligible for a Request for Access Appeal if: • The student does not have an opportunity to attempt the EOC or HSPE a second time prior to the submission date and • The district assessment coordinator can provide a description of the circumstances that prevented the student from making the second attempt on the HSPE or EOC.

  28. 2013-2014 COE submission and score posting dates

  29. COE 2013 Results

  30. Format of the COEs • Reading, writing, and biology COEs are compiled and submitted online via the EDS system. • The secure EDS System can be accessed by educators who have students working on a COE. Work with your District Assessment Coordinator and building administration to make sure students are enrolled into groups & to review tasks. • Math COE tasks are accessed by the teacher through the EDS system, printed and submitted on paper. • Guidelines, archived webinars and other information can be found at http://www.coe.k12.wa.us.
