World Languages Department Chairpersons Leadership Training Friday, May 5, 2006 Honolulu Airport Hotel
Desired Outcomes: Understanding of the basic differences between HCPS II and HCPS III. Familiarity with the rubrics and sample performance assessments in HCPS III. Understanding of the purposes and uses of State Benchmark maps. Gain ideas for school and complex implementation plans for HCPS III for World Languages.

More Definitions Sample Performance Assessment = a generalized description of how a student might demonstrate significant aspects of the benchmark Specific Task = a specific description of how a student might demonstrate knowledge or skill related to significant aspects of a benchmark Rubric = a description of levels of performance in relation to a benchmark
Specific task Sample Benchmark WL.IS.Y1.3.1 (HCPSIII p.39) Use oral language skills to make simple presentations Sample Performance Assessment (SPA): The student: Gives oral presentations (e.g., information, poetry, songs), arranging ideas to focus on a single topic using both memorized and original sentences, may use props, visual aids, or technological presentation tools. Task/Activity: The student: Gives a 1 minute speech to the class on his/her favorite school subject .
Rubric Focus • Consistency • Difficulty • Error • Level of detail • Significance of detail • Quality • Speed or Fluency • Variety
Task Specific/Benchmark Assessment The student prepares and presents a collage that describes himself/herself on videotape. Video exchanged with school of target culture.
Small group work • Select a course and one benchmark. • Design a specific task for that benchmark. • *Create a rubric for the task.
Benchmark Maps Purpose: Provides consistency in identifying when benchmarks will be addressed as schools develop curriculum maps.
Benchmark maps are:Sequences of clustered benchmarks by quartersClustered around Big Ideasof a grade or course
The Benchmark Map is developed with the following premises: • All benchmarks for the grade level/course will be achieved in a school year. • Major understandings are the big generalizations for the topic/concept. • Benchmarks are presented in the suggested quarter for assessment. • Italicized benchmarks are developed and assessed throughout the year.
Criteria considered • Classroom practice and teacher input • Language specific considerations (e.g., level of language learning difficulty) • Content, skills, and topics • Essential concepts of second language development • o scaffolded learning • o extended listening experience • o receptive skills before productive skills
Taxonomic levels • Benchmarks that contribute to big ideas for the time period • Related benchmarks • Balance of outcomes among the four quarters • Difficulty and complexity of benchmarks
Sample of Benchmark Map:Introduction to World Languages A Grades 7/8Semester 1, Quarter 1 Big Idea(s) / Major Understanding(s): Students will understand that: • The functional use of a language is learned through developing and applying skills in authentic or meaningfulcontexts. • Awareness of the perspectives of another culture provides insight into one’s own culture and develops respect for the practices, products, beliefs, and values of other cultures
Introduction to World Languages A Grades 7/8Semester 1, Quarter 1HCPS III Benchmarks:WL.IS.6-8.4.1 Identify tangible and intangible products and practices of the target culture and compare them to other culturesWL.IS.6-8.1.1 Ask and answer social questions to get information or to maintain a conversation
Pair/share: What role do benchmark maps play in standards-based education? How can I use the maps?
Application of Benchmark Maps Do a curriculum map for the first quarter of one course, based on the draft of the benchmark maps. Submit through courier or by email to Lynette Fujimori by September 1, 2006.
