2 Today’s Topics The basis of the MI-Access assessments Instructional relevance of MI-Access Tools and questions Local example
3
3 MI-Access EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs and Assessments Instruction, curriculum, and assessment - promoting the greatest degree of independence possible Assessments built on assumption that state’s content standards will drive curriculum All students must have opportunities to access and learn the content standards – EGLCE/EB/EHSCE
4
4 MI-Access Assessments A state level alternate assessment should: –evaluate the concepts and procedures that students with disabilities need to effectively solve problems; –present those problems within the real-world contexts of daily living, community experience, and employment; and –cover the same knowledge and skills currently evaluated by the general state assessment (MEAP) albeit in somewhat different ways.
5
5 MI-Access Assessments Assessment item development: –Wide variety of student academic skill in navigating and responding to the assessment –Measuring knowledge of concepts as opposed to reading/writing skills (e.g., Mathematics) –Universal design principles applied to reduce need for accommodations
6
6 MI-Access Functional Independence EGLCEs/EBs and Assessments Items presented in a real-world context Hands on materials (e.g. coins, clocks, etc.) may be used as long as nature of question or response elicited is unaffected Any necessary data, charts, and/or text are provided as part of the item
7
7 GLCEs & EGLCEs/EBs Mathematics Divided into Strands of Numbers and Operations, Algebra, Measurement, Geometry, and Data and Probability Subdivided into Topics/Domains, e.g., Count, Write, and Order Whole Numbers; Identify and Describe Shapes; Data Representation; Units and Systems of Measurement

19 P/SI Draft EGLCE/EB P/SI ELA and Mathematics Assessment Plan Writing Team (APWT) Reduced depth, breadth, and complexity Looking for the mathematics already present in instruction –Context always considered
20
20 Example SI Link GLCE - 4 th Grade N.FL.04.08 Add and subtract whole numbers fluently. SI EGLCE–Elementary N.FL.e4.SI.EG08a Demonstrate knowledge of basic addition and subtraction facts (single digits, no regrouping, and sums/differences less than ten). Use of manipulatives and/or calculator is permissible.
21
21 Example SI Link GLCE - 7 th Grade D.RE.07.01 Represent and interpret data using circle graphs, stem and leaf plots, histograms, and box- and-whisker plots, and select appropriate representation to address specific questions. SI EGLCE–Middle School D.RE.m7.SI.EG01b Read and interpret pictographs with a scale of one.
22
22 Example P Link GLCE – 4 TH Grade N.ME.04.20 Understand fractions as parts of a set of objects. P EGLCE - Elementary N.ME.e4.P.EG20a Differentiate between a whole object and part of an object. Example: A whole puzzle vs. one piece
23
23 Example P Link HSCE-High School L1.2.4 Organize and summarize a data set in a table, plot, chart, or spreadsheet; find patterns in a display of data; understand and critique data displays in the media. P EHSCE- High School EHSCE.P.L1.2.4b Organize data by sorting pictures or objects. Example: Using pictures of self and classmates, differentiate between present/absent, male/female, or activity choices
24
24 Sample Items - SI EGLCE: D.RE.m7.SI.EG01c ACTIVITY: The student will correctly identify the location of a person to whom he/she will deliver a message or object. For example, the student could be directed, “Please take this note to Mrs. Smith. Where is her classroom?” The student may provide verbal directions or indicate the location on a map of the school. SCORING FOCUS: Identifying what data are needed to solve a problem
25
25 Sample Items - P EHSCE: EHSCE.P.A1.1.1a ACTIVITY: The student will correctly indicate which item is cold when presented with 1 hot and 1 cold item while engaged in a familiar eating routine, such as lunch or snack time. For example, the student could be presented with a cup of ice water and a cup of hot soup and then be asked, “Which one is cold?” SCORING FOCUS: Differentiating between hot and cold

32
32 “Mining” the EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs Begin by discussing the fundamental meaning and content of the EGLCE/EB/EHSCE statement. Underline important key concepts. Think about the meaning of each concept—underlying knowledge/skills, concrete examples—and why it’s important.
33
33 “Mining” the EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs Questions Do our students receive instruction on this concept? Where, when, and how? –Performance Context If we don’t teach this now, how could we in the future?
34
34 “Mining” the EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs Questions What types of IEP goals could we write to measure these concepts? Are our instructional materials covering these concepts adequately? What materials exist to help us figure this stuff out?
35
35 Using the EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs to Prepare for MI-Access Questions How many EGLCEs/EBs/EHSCEs from each strand/topic/domain will be assessed? What will the items assessing these concepts look like? How will the items based on these concepts be scored and reported?

57
57 You have State Assessment Data from LAST YEAR You have current year EGLCEs to guide your Curriculum for THIS YEAR (along with other assessments i.e., Brigance, Key Math etc). You know what will be assessed NEXT YEAR. This is a powerful tool to guide your curriculum AND to write Goals & Objectives. Plan
58
58 After reviewing classroom evaluation results, MI Access results from Fall 2006 and meeting with parents, annual Goal & Objectives are developed. It is clear that Molly Math Student needs improvement/development of skills in Problem Solving and Computation. More specifically, she has difficulty reading charts, tables, graphs and using/understanding data presented in this manner. What would the Goal Page look like?
59
59 I.E.P. Goal & Objectives Developed Using Classroom AND MI Access Data
60
60 BenchmarkStudents WillText ReferenceSuggested Activities/Assessment Organize and display single- variable data in appropriate graphs and plots. Collect and explore data through counting. D.RE.06.E03 Describe the shape of data using informal language (e.g. increasing, decreasing). D.RE.06.E01 Read and interpret data from charts, tables, bar graphs, circle graphs, tallies and pictographs with a scale up to ten. M.UN.06.EG05 Measure area by counting squares on a grid for rectangular shapes. Pearson Learning – Practical Mathematics (What would instruction look like? – Basic Level) (What would instruction look like? – Advanced Level) MPS Look at simple bar chart/pie chart to determine more or less. Measure plants in Science and enter data in Microsoft Word table. Present information that explains growth (or lack of) according to a hypothesis (more or less sunlight, fertilizer added to soil, poor soil type etc.). This introduces students to charts and graphs, less – more. Draw pictures of lines representing number levels (students look across the grid at the number). The higher the line, the larger the number on the grid. Develop classroom surveys and make simple bar graphs to show more or less. Strand III: Data Analysis and Statistics Content Standard 1: Students collect and explore data, organize data into a useful form, and develop skill in presenting and reading data displayed in different formats. (Collection, Organization and Presentation of Data)
61
61 Looking the entire Data Analysis Strand EGLEs – Data & Probability
62
62 BenchmarkStudents WillText Reference Suggested Activities/Assessment Analyze data by using combinations of measures of center and spread including the effect of outliers. Identify misuses of data. Read and explain data from charts, tables, tallies, and graphs. D.RE.07.EG01 Read data from charts, tables, bar graphs, circle graphs, tallies, and pictographs with a scale up to ten. D.RE.07.EG02 Draw, explain and justify predictions and conclusions from data presented in tables, graphs and charts. D.RE.07.EG03 Describe the shape of data using informal language, e.g. increasing, decreasing, stays the same D.RE.07.EG04 Solve problems using data presented in tables, bar graphs, circle graphs, tallies and pictographs, including graphs and charts that have more than one set of data. Pearson Learning – Practical Mathematics Look ahead at 7 th Grade “Released Item” MI-Access Develop classroom surveys and make simple bar graphs to show “more or less.” Ask students to survey peers about favorite pop, candy etc. They will develop a bar chart showing preference. Engage in math games and use “tally marks” to keep track of the score. Students will “tell” what the pie chart divisions or bar graphs of varying size means. Compare different categories of data by interpreting graphs/charts. Strand III: Data Analysis and Statistics Content Standard 2: Students examine data and describe characteristics of a distribution, relate data to the situation from which they arose, and use data to answer questions convincingly and persuasively.
