Next-Generation MCAS Overview
• Updated version of the nearly 20-year-old MCAS
assessment
• Focuses on students’ critical thinking abilities,
application of knowledge, and ability to make
connections between reading and writing
• Gives a clearer signal of readiness for the next
grade level or college and career
• Designed to be given on a computer (though
paper versions remain available)

Revisions to Descriptors
• New standards for Meeting Expectations are
more rigorous than the standards for reaching
the Proficient level on the legacy MCAS.
• Massachusetts educators set the new
standards to help signal students’ readiness
for the next grade level.

Coherence of Scoring
![Page 13: HINGHAM PUBLIC SCHOOLS · 2017. 11. 20. · PRESENTATION AGENDA •Part I: District Accountability Information •Part II: Overview of Next Generation MCAS (MCAS 2.0) •Part III:](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060916/60a966c5bd2c1e608176ec99/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Recalibration
Projected Statewide 2017 Results for Grades 3-
8 ELA and Math: Percent of students in each
achievement level
• The results do NOT mean that
students learned less; the next-
generation MCAS measures in a
different way
• 2017 is the baseline year — the first
year of a new assessment — expect
scores to change over time, as occurred
when the legacy MCAS debuted in 1998.
• In some grades and subjects, the
percent of students Meeting
Expectations will likely be similar to the
percent that were Proficient previously.
In other grades and subjects, the
percent who are in Meeting
Expectations will likely be lower than
the previous percent of Proficient
students.
