  1. Career and College Readiness Standards, Assessment, and Curriculum Governor's Education Summit April 23, 2012 2

  2. Transitioning to the Common Core State Standards is an opportunity to… 1

  3. Common Core State Standards • State-led effort to create a common core of academic standards in K-12 English/language arts and mathematics • Based on research and evidence, internationally benchmarked, aligned with college and workforce expectations • Nearly 50 states and terrritories have adopted the CCSS * 4

  4. Common Core State Standards • Adopted by Michigan in June 2010 • SBAC assessments scheduled for implementation in Spring 2015 * 5

  5. Common Core State Standards What are standards? • “Standards are high points, finish lines, not complete specs for curriculum” • “The CCSS standards were deliberately designed as a platform for the development of curricula and assessment”. (Phil Daro, CCSS-M Writer, 2011 NCSM Presentation) 6

  6. Math Standards • Key Characteristics • Mathematical Practices • Greater focus and greater coherence • Progressions of big ideas that span several grades * 7

  7. ELA Standards • Key Characteristics • Building knowledge through content-rich informational text • Reading, writing & speaking grounded in evidence • Regular practice with complex text * 8

  8. Remember… • Michigan Merit Curriculum is still law • CCSS replace High School Content Expectations and Grade Level Content Expectations for mathematics and ELAonly * 9

  9. Curriculum • The work we do in the classroom everyday • Includes materials, tasks or activities, and instruction • Guided by standards * 10

  10. SOME KEY AREAS OF FOCUS IN THE DAY TO DAY CURRICULUM • Communications & Collaboration • Problem Solving • Technology & Tools • Argument & Reasoning 11

  11. Career & College Ready Students To be revised by Ruth Anne * 12

  12. Career and College Ready Students:· Use technology and tools strategically in learning and communicating · Use argument and reasoning to do research, construct arguments, and critique the reasoning of others ·Communicate and collaborate effectively with a variety of audiences· Solve problems, construct explanations and design solutions * 13

  13. Assessment • Michigan belongs to 2 assessment consortia: • SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium • Summative assessments for K-12 general education students • Dynamic Learning Maps • Summative assessments for students with significant cognitive disabilities * 14

  14. A Balanced Assessment System

  15. Some Major Features • Online, rapid turnaround of results • Computer adaptive summative and interim assessments • Teacher involvement in item development, item review, and test scoring • Retest option for students • Item types • Multiple Choice • Short Constructed Response • Extended Constructed Response • Technology Enhanced • Performance Tasks • DO WE HAVE ANY EXAMPLES THAT WE CAN USE FOR EACH OF THESE???? SOME OF THESE???

  16. Reading Writing Speaking/Listening Research/Inquiry Language Use Draft Assessment Claims for English Language Arts/Literacy

  17. Concepts and Procedures Communicating Reasoning Data Analysis and Modeling Problem Solving Draft Assessment Claims for Mathematics

  18. Implications of online testing for the classroom: • What are they? • How might we resolve the implications? • What supports are needed in schools in order to be ready for online assessments in 2015? 20

  19. 5-4-3-2-1 5 Infrastructure - behind the wall and in the hands of teachers and students 4 Consolidation 3 Professional Learning 2 Digital Content and Online Assessments 1 Peer-to-Peer Innovative Networks 19

  20. Another Tool Survey of Enacted Curriculum 21

  21. Next Steps • MAISA Instructional Units • PUT MAISA SLIDE NEXT. URL THIS PAGE The items below go on slide AFTER MAISA slides • Webinars with MEA, AFT-MI, MANS, MAPSA • Other professional learning opportunities to be announced • Career and College Ready Portal • ADD URLs AND Picture of portal

  29. Discussion about what might need to think about for an online teaching/learning/assessment classroom • Usual responses are about technology and not about PD and changes to the classroom.

  30. Placeholder for survey maps - both ELA and math
