Michigan Interim Assessments August 2014

Topics Where do interim assessments fit in a balanced assessment system? What are Michigan’s new interim assessments? What are the purposes of interim assessments? How can educators help in interim assessment development?

Classroom Assessment Practices Formative—Assessment for Learning How can we help students learn more? Interim Assessments Short-cycle Summative (MI IA pre/post) Are students in each school on track for proficiency? State summative/End of Course Summative—Assessment of Learning Did students learn what they should have? Comprehensive Balanced Assessment System Aligned to Content Standards

Balanced Assessment System Think about the status of the “assessment system balance” within the building or district you serve. 4

Interim Assessments (K – HS) New proposed assessment program for MDE/DAS Aligned to Michigan’s education standards

Interim Assessments (continued) Components of MI Interim Assessments for School Year : K – 2: ELA, Mathematics High school: Michigan Merit Curriculum (MMC) credit assessments in Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Earth Science) and Social Studies (US History & Geo, World History & Geo, Economics, and Civics)

Interim Assessments (continued) Optional Online Pretest-posttest initially; after full implementation would like to add a third (mid- year assessment) When operational, may serve as one measure of student growth Individual student, classroom and school/district-level data No scoring costs expected

Gr 3 – HS Online Tools Available Basic Tools depending on grade level and assessment Pointer Cross off Highlighter Magnifier (1.5x and 2.0x) Line guide Periodic Table (Grade 5, 6, 7 Science, & HS Science only) Sticky Notes (HS only) Scientific Calculator (HS Science only) References (HS Physics only)

Interim Assessments (continued) Accommodations and tools (e.g., calculator) included AI scored constructed response items (future year) Technology-enhanced and technology- enabled items

IA Terminology Technology-enabled items: Use online media (e.g., sound, reader) in the presentation of the passage or item(s) Technology-enhanced items: Use technology to enhance the way that the student responds to the item (specialized interactions with the item as part of the response), rather than a traditional multiple choice response format

Item Development Process 101 Items written based on Michigan’s education standards Bias and content review of items by MI educators and edits offered as needed Pilot testing Bias and content review of items with stats by MI educators and edits offered as needed

How might the MI IA work for you? Think about how the new Michigan interim assessments may fit into your school’s or your district’s assessment system?

How can individual educators be involved with development of Michigan’s Interim Assessment Program? Content Reviewers Bias Sensitivity Reviewers Context Writers Committee Review Member Application: Click “BAA Committee Participation Application” (Resources section of IA page) Educator Involvement
