• Blueprints available on PED website
• http://ped.state.nm.us/AssessmentAccountability/AssessmentEvaluation/EOC/index.html
• Include assessed standards, specification tables, admin. guides (for SPAs)
• Essential for teachers!

PED-Developed EoCs

• Is the PED EoC appropriate for my class?
• Check framework.
• Assessed standards should align with curriculum.
![Page 7: Test Coordinator Training Spring 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816192550346895dd1305e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
District-Developed EoCs

When to create?
• If no EoC exists for a course
• If PED EoC does not align with curriculum*
*Must be significantly different

Use if no PED-Developed EoC for the course
Made available statewide once approved, or PED may use items to create new forms.

District-Developed EoCsRequired with Submission:

EoC Testing Protocol• EoCs are downloadable
from SOAP.
• Maintain test security!
• Do not maintain local digital copies.
• Retain paper copies in locked, secure storage.
![Page 12: Test Coordinator Training Spring 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816192550346895dd1305e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
EoCs for ELLs• PED provides Spanish versions of all ADC
EoCs including ELA III: Reading and ELA III: Writing.
• There is the option to translate into other native languages on the district level.
• The first three continuous years a student attends public school in the U.S., the student may take an EoC in his or her native language. For the following two continuous years, the student may test in his or her native language if he or she still qualifies for ELL status and has submitted a waiver. (Same policy as SBA.)

1. They are current ELL status in their first 3 years in U.S. schools.
2. They are current ELL status in their 4th or 5th year in U.S. schools and have filled out the EoC ELL Waiver.

• Group B: 35‒50% EoCs for Student Achievement Measures

If EoCs are in the District/Charter Educator Effectiveness Plan:
• Teacher with multiple preps?
• ONE EoC
• More data = better results

Growth Model
17
“Student Achievement Measures” based on growth model.
PED uses data of past student achievement to produce “projected score.”
Achievement compares “projected score” to actual student score.
![Page 18: Test Coordinator Training Spring 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816192550346895dd1305e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Growth Model
18
If actual student scores are higher than projected student scores, teacher receives a high rating for Student Achievement Measures.
Model produces high correlation between predicted and actual scores.

EoCs
Correlation between predicted and actual EoC at the student level = .86
At the teacher level = .94
