  1. An Introduction to CEM Secondary Monitoring SystemsAssessment for ExcellenceS1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS) & S2 Curriculum-based Assessments (formerly SOSCA) www.cemcentre.org/afe

  2. CEM Assessments: 1.1 million pupils each year Assessments from 3-18 Used in 44 countries Works with 15 Scottish Authorities www.cemcentre.org/afe

  3. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS) End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments (SOSCA) The Systems The Assessments Example Questions Feedback www.cemcentre.org/afe

  4. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS): Developed Ability Computer adaptive or paper-based Any time Term 1 + catch ups Baseline Feedback after 2 hours (computer adaptive) / 2-3 weeks (paper) Predictions and Value Added to Scottish Qualifications The Systems End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments (SOSCA): Based on Curriculum for Excellence Computer adaptive Four week assessment windowmid April to mid May + catch ups Feedback early June Lower and upper school Value Added measures

  5. Assessment for Excellence: Secondary S1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS) + End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments (SOSCA) Can be used INDIVIDUALLY or better still COMBINED What pupils know VS what they can do High Ability or Hard Work? Low Ability or Underachievement?

  6. The Systems - Computer Adaptive Assessment Adaptive Assessment: • Questions adapt to pupil • Efficient • No time Wasting • Wider Ability Range • More Enjoyable • Green

  7. The Systems - Computer Adaptive Assessment Running the Computer Adaptive Assessments: 1. Send us a CSV file of your pupils’ details 2. Set up software - internet or intranet (LAN) 3. Run the assessments 4. Send us assessment results files (if doing LAN based version)

  8. The Systems - Computer Adaptive Assessment Required Specification Adaptive for each pupil and delivered by computer:

  9. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment (MidYIS) Developed ability assessments for S1 or S2 covering: Vocabulary – Select the most similar word Maths – Mixture of multiple choice and free answer questions Non-verbal - Cross-sections, Block Counting and Pictures Skills - Proof Reading and Perceptual Speed & Accuracy

  10. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment:Maths

  11. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment:Vocabulary

  12. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment:Non-verbal

  13. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment:Skills

  14. S1/S2 Baseline Assessment:Skills

  15. End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments End S2 Curriculum-based assessments covering: Maths- Number, Money & Measurement - Information Handling - Space, Position & Movement Science - Living Things & the Processes of Life - Earth & Space - Energy & Forces - Attitudes to Science Reading- Speed Reading - Text Comprehension - Passage Comprehension

  16. End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments:Maths

  17. End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments:Maths

  18. End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments:Science

  19. End S2 Curriculum-based Assessments:Reading

  20. The Assessments Demonstration versions available: Secondary.support@cem.dur.ac.uk

  21. Feedback Overview Prompt Feedback: • Assessment Feedback - Standardised Scores and Quartile Bands • Predictions & Chances Graphs for <Standard Grade / Int 2> • Value Added to: - S2 Curriculum-based Assessments - <Standard Grade / Int 2> • Attitudes to Science (End S2 Assessments)

  22. Feedback • Feedback can be used at the pupil, class and cohort level. • to guide individuals • to monitor pupil progress • to monitor subject-wide and department level progress • For classroom teachers, Head teachers or SMT as a quality assurance tool • Data can be aggregated at other levels. We support & provide software tools to help schools to do this e.g. Paris software

  23. Feedback: Scores

  24. Feedback: Band Profile Graphs

  25. Feedback: MidYIS S1 Baseline: IPRs Strong in Vocabulary, Maths and Skills Poor performance in Non Verbal Significantly less able in Non Verbal

  26. Feedback: S2 Curriculum-based IPRs Average Reading Generally better than average Maths Above average Science But what is this pupil’s underlying ability like? What is their starting point?

  27. Feedback: MidYIS S1 IPRs But what is this pupil’s underlying ability like? What is their starting point? • An overachiever in Maths and Science? • Perhaps Reading more in line with underlying ability?

  28. Feedback: Standards Referencing Reading

  29. Feedback: Standards Referencing Maths

  30. Feedback: Standards Referencing Science

  31. Predictions Feedback How do these predictions compare to the predictions from the baseline assessment?

  32. Predictions: Chances Graphs

  33. Value Added: Scatter Charts Identify: • over performance • under performance • keeping up

  34. Value Added: Subject Performance From MidYIS/SOSCA to Standard Grade and others e.g. Intermediate 2 From Pips/MidYIS to SOSCA (as applicable)

  35. Value Added: SPC Chart
