Documents used in this session:Changes for 2010 and BeyondItem Specifications (3-8)
Turn to Page 4What’s a “big” change you noticed?Page 5 Item and Point TotalsLook at your grade levelItem TypesLook at all three typesQuestions??
Page 8 Pilot Item 2010“The Standard Algorithm” for regroupingPage 9 Pilot Item 2010“The Standard Algorithm” for multiplicationPage 10 Pilot Item 2010“The Standard Algorithm” for division
Turn to an elbow buddy, share thoughts and implications for your teaching
Get into groups of 3-4Turn to page 14 and complete the item on
your ownAs a group, answer these questions related
to the item:1.What vocabulary is crucial for success on
this item? (highlight)2.What is the PE? Find it in the Test & Item
Specs document. 3.Bold vs Italics (Test & Item Specs)4.Student must fill in the bubble.
Repeat the previous process for your remaining grade level items.
Answer these questions related to this item:
1.What vocabulary is crucial for success on this item? (highlight)
2.What is the PE? Find it in the Test & Item Specs document.
3.Bold vs Italics (Test & Item Specs)
Fill in the bubble for multiple choice
Write the answer on the line for a completion problem
Use words, numbers or pictures for 2 point problems
What did you notice????Important new learningsWhat needs to be shared with others
at your buildingHow will this inform your practice?
Test Development Guidelines Test & Item Specs Document p.3-7
Directions:p. 3-7 Read over general considerations. Pair up and share important information that
would be helpful to prepare students for the MSP
More Information on the guidelines
Items use language targeted to the previous grade level or lower readability, except for required mathematics terms listed in this document.
Directions with multiple requirements will be
organized with bullets.
Letters used as variables are always italicized.
The responses “All of the above” and “None of the above” will not be used.
More……Tools may include rulers, pattern blocks, base ten
blocks, geoboards, tiles, cubes, and other manipulative that would not provide an answer directly to students. Make sure students are familiar with the tools. Do not pull them out on test day for the first time.
If an answer on the line is negated by the information or numbers in the space for writing, then the number on the line is the answer. This means that students’ drawings and written responses must match the answer on the line, otherwise a scorer has to choose and they cannot choose which answer is correct.

Performance Expectations that will be assessed at the state level appear in BOLD TEXT
The remaining PEs which appear in italicized text, should be taught and assessed at the classroom level
Vocabulary
Data Displays, Computational Guidelines, Mathematical Symbols, Measurement
Time for You!!!Highlight vocabulary that you need to focus
on this springRead through your grade level PEs and
highlight classroom based assessment items

Changes for 2010 and Beyond
Completion Items
Only numerical answers – labels (if needed) will be given
Changes for 2010 and Beyond The item specifications were
changed in DECEMBER to include the testing of standard algorithms
Standard algorithm questions are only being piloted this spring

Assessment High SchoolHigh School Proficiency Exam (HSPE)
The HSPE will assess the GLEs in 2010In 2011, the HSPE will assess the new
content standards and move to End-of-Course (EOC) assessments for Algebra 1 and Geometry
Third year credit options: Algebra 2, CTE aligned to Algebra 2, or a waiver
Completion items and items assessing the new content standards will be piloted on the spring 2010 assessment
Assessment High SchoolHigh School Proficiency Exam (HSPE)
Students will take the EOC at the time they complete the course (i.e. – 8th grade algebra students would take the Algebra EOC in 8th grade)
6th-8th graders taking an EOC will also take the MSP for their respective grade level
How this will impact AYP formulas for high school has not been decided
During 2011, only the spring EOC test window will be available for students; starting in 2012, there will be a winter and spring test window to accommodate block schedules
