Key Objectives A test that covers curricular areas of Math English English as a second language (ESL) Adaptive at the Testlet level Multiple (Supplemental) Measures Assessment Preparation Accessibility as a primary consideration ASCCC Curriculum Institute – July 7 – 9, 2016

Assessment, Not Placement
Placement is locally determined Raw data is portable Only machine scoring (questions and writing sample) Students will be able to “shop” their scores for the “best” placement No traditional cut scores. Each student will have a skills assessment report that must be used to place students based upon local mapping of competencies to existing curriculum. Validation steps Statewide Local ASCCC Curriculum Institute – July 7 – 9, 2016

Writing Sample Resolution F14 included the following: Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges recommend that the Common Assessment Initiative include writing samples as a required component of the common assessment and that the writing samples are scored by human readers whose participation will inform assessment procedures that promote the growth of students across the composition sequence; and Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges urge the Common Assessment Initiative steering committee to ensure that English and ESL instructors with knowledge and experience as to how integrated assessment programs inform curriculum and pedagogy participate in the design and evaluation of writing samples to ensure that the assessment test is grounded in the latest research on language learning and assessment practices.

Writing Sample (2) The writing sample will be a part of the CAI and will serve both English and ESL students The sample can be human scored, but the CAI system will also include a machine scoring algorithm. RFP for this machine scoring system will be out soon The AI must be able to “learn” from writing samples that have been hand scored Colleges will not be required to use the machine score Selection of machine scoring system will come soon. It is possible that the writing sample will not be available at the initial launch. Colleges adopting CAI may continue to use locally developed writing samples until the statewide sample is available. ASCCC Curriculum Institute – July 7 – 9, 2016

Multiple Measures Overlap with Multiple Measures Assessment Project (MMAP) Currently convening Pilot college overlap Non-cognitive measures Self-Reported GPA Statewide validated model Integration with CCCAssess What should be offered? Use of multiple measures for placement is required. No single placement tool (assessment test or single multiple measure) is sufficient. A “multiple measure” isn’t multiple if you choose to not use the assessment test and then use a single alternative placement tool! Any measurement used for placement must be validated. ASCCC Curriculum Institute – July 7 – 9, 2016
10
Validation of Multiple Measures
Colleges are not required to use any of the multiple measures options offered in the common assessment system Colleges should examine GPA models using local data to ensure that the proposed model is valid for their students Colleges are required to collect data on any multiple measures used. Currently, colleges are not required to submit any of this data to the Chancellor’s Office. More information on validation of multiple measures will be available in ASCCC Curriculum Institute – July 7 – 9, 2016

Faculty Role in Implementation
Discipline Faculty need to look at the competency maps and determine how they align to existing curriculum The conversations should involve discipline faculty outside of math, English, and ESL because placement decisions affect the entire campus Counselors must be involved in discussion to have accurate information for students Your Academic Senate should take the lead in coordinating the implementation efforts!
