  9. Information Smarter Balanced • Grades 3 – 8; 11 • Four question types • Selected-response items prompt students to select one or more responses for a set of options. • Technology-enhanced items collect evidence through a non-traditional response type, such as editing text or drawing an object. Selected-response and technology-enhanced items can be scored automatically. • Constructed-response items prompt students to produce a text or numerical response through writing about their knowledge or understanding of a given assessment target. • Performance tasks measure a student’s ability to integrate knowledge and skills across multiple standards—a key component of college and career readiness.
