    3. CCSS Impact on Wisconsin’s Alternate Achievement Standards and Assessment for Students with Disabilities Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 8/29/2012 3

    4. General Supervision Enhancement Grant (GSEG) 2010-2014 IDEA funded grant awarded by the Office of Special Education Programs, at the U.S. Dept. of Education. Four Years Two consortia were awarded grants National Center and State Collaborative Dynamic Learning Maps Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 4

    5. National Center and State Collaborative Develop and validate learning progressions with students with significant cognitive disabilities, including skill sequences that can be used in instruction and assessment, building on the potential of technology.

    8. Timeline Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 8/29/2012 8

    9. Outcomes of the Consortium Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive Professional development modules for teacher training Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) 9

    10. Common Core Essential Elements Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction The Common Core Essential Elements (CCEE) are specific statements of the content and skills that are linked to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) grade level specific expectations for students with significant cognitive disabilities. 10

    11. Mathematics Domain Distribution 8/29/2012 Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 11

    12. ELA Domain Distribution 8/29/2012 Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 12

    13. 13 Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

    14. Common Core Essential Elements Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction CCEEs currently being reviewed for adoption Professional development tools are being created to support the roll-out and implementation of CCEEs 14

    15. CCEEs Timeline Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 15 2012-2013: Awareness and Understanding/Implementation 2013-2014: Implementation/Application and Practice 2014-2015: Spring Alternate Assessment administered

    16. What should districts be doing now? Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 16 Gain understanding of the CCSS Collaborate with content areas educators for ELA and math Participate in professional development related to the CCSS

    17. Document Organization Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 8/29/2012 17

    18. Activity Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction 18 After reviewing the CCEE and IALDs: What questions do you have? Did you have any “A’HA” realizations? Do you have concerns? How do you see this playing out in your classroom/school/district? What support will you need to implement the CCEEs? 8/29/2012

    19. Outcomes of the Consortium Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive Professional development modules for teacher training Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) 19

    24. Outcomes of the Consortium Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive Professional development modules for teacher training Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) 24

    25. The Future of Alternate Assessment Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction The Dynamic Learning Maps, along with the CCEEs will provide the foundation for a new summative alternate assessment available in 2014-15. Wisconsin will participate in the development of a new assessment if the test design fits with our needs, or we will develop our own assessment based on the new standards. The current WAA-SwD will continue to be administered until a new assessment is available. 25

    26. Key Features of Dynamic Learning Maps System Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction An assessment system that provides a summative (point-in-time) assessment as well as formative and interim assessment components for ELA and mathematics throughout the year. Computer adaptive summative assessment Grades 3–8 and 11 (testing window in the Spring) Selected response, constructed response, technology enhanced instructionally relevant items Computer adaptive formative and interim tools Based on learning maps Administered throughout the year Professional development modules for educators Advanced feedback and reporting systems 26
