  1. Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) 2014-2015 Debbie Matthews dmatthews@ksde.org 785-296-0916

  2. Materials Teachers will Need • All information at -http://dynamiclearningmaps.org/kansas • Participation Guidelines • DLM English Language Arts Integrated Assessment Model 2014-15 • DLM Mathematics Integrated Assessment Model 2014-15 Blueprint • And the Essential Elements on the Educator Resource page that have live links, so can’t be downloaded.

  3. Students and Teachers need to be uploaded to DLM by October 1, 2014 • Teachers after October 1, 2014 can complete the First Contact Survey if the student is new or review previously completed surveys • Teachers after October 1, 2014 can complete the PNP if the student is new or review previous PNP for students

  4. Resources All testing information is at the newDLM website at http://dynamiclearningmaps.org/ • Then, go to assessmentsat the top of the page and in the drop down, menu click on operational testing • Then, go to the bottom of the page to select states and choose Kansas Remember Teachers are called Test Administrators

  5. Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) • NOW, Teachers need to pick their Essential Elements (EEs, which are links to the standards) for their students using the: • DLM English Language Arts Integrated Assessment Model 2014-15 Blueprint • DLM Mathematics Integrated Assessment Model 2014-15 Blueprint • After picking the EEs then teachers can organize their classroom and begin instruction • Teachers will enter the chosen EEs into DLM Educator Portal starting November 10

  6. Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) The First Contact Survey determines the Linkage Level that will be delivered to the student when the student enters the assessment. There are 5 linkage levels: • Successor • Target • Proximal • Distal • Initial Each EE and the nodes at each linkage level are on the Educator Recourse page at http://dynamiclearningmaps.org/kansas then go to Essential Elements and click on the EE you are choosing and you will see what is on the next slide. This information has live links so it can’t be downloaded.

  7. ESSENTIAL ELEMENT, NODES, AND MINI-MAP ELA: 3RD GRADE ELA.EE.RL.3.1

  8. Dynamic Learning Maps NOW • There is required training for test administrators - • The Individual Test Administrative Training is in the Educator Portal • The Facilitated Test Administrative Training is located at http://dynamiclearningmaps.org/kansas

  9. Dynamic Learning Maps Who may be a Test Administrator? A person that completes the Required Test Administrative training. A paraprofessional can be a Test Administrator as long as they have completed the training. The Required Test Administrative training is available now on Dynamic Learning Maps in the Educator Portal

  10. DLM Integrated Model

  11. DLM Integrated Model   When thinking of DLM we have to think of it as a formative process, the assessment is a year long process that will involve: • Instruction • Then going into the Instructional Tool Interface weekly to complete testlets, then continue instruction and completing testlets. • 2014-2015 testlets will only be two deep so please limit use of testlets per EE 2x- So you can only test one EE – 2 times in DLM • Some EEs may not have any testlets • Some EEs will have testlets that have FT on the testlet and that means it is a field test item and can be used

  12. DLM Integrated Model 2014-2015 • Beginning On November 10, 2014 teachers will be able to go into DLM and have access to the testlets to assess their students as instruction is occurring • This year the integrated use of testlets in the Instructional Tools Interface will not be used in the students State Assessment Score – this is a year that teachers can explore and get used to using the Instructional Tools Interface weekly or often with their students • Only the final End of Year assessment will be used for the Students State Assessment score in 2014-2015

  13. DLM Integrated Model 2015-2016 • As teachers go through that process they are creating many data points for each student across the school year • These many data points, plus a small End of Year Assessment over the EEs that were chosen for that student will be the students State Assessment Score for the year starting in 2015-2016 • This type of assessment will also show the growth of the student across the year

  14. DLM Integrated Model End of year testing date is – March 9 – May 15 The End of Year Test will be a re-assessment of 5 EEs for ELA and 5 EEs in Math. The assessment will randomly select 5 EEs out of the total number of EEs chosen for the student and will use those 5 EEs to assess the student on in the small End of Year Assessment.

  15. Field Tests

  16. DLM Field Tests There will be 3 Field Tests and Kansas teachers can volunteer their participation of students DLM still has 6,000 items they need to field test this year so participation will be appreciated When teachers go into the Instructional Tool Interface and use testlets they might see “FT” on some testlets and those are Field Test testlets

  17. DLM Field Tests DLM Field Tests (Volunteer) • October 13-31 – Field Test A • November 10-December 20 – Field Test B • January 5–March 6 - Field Test C
