  1. CCSS and SBAC: Changes coming and how they affect “me” Presented by: Alan Burke, Ed.D. Deputy Superintendent of K-12 Education Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting October 11, 2012

  2. Questions Addressed Today • What are the similarities/differences between Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards? • What are the implementation timelines from standards adoption to the assessment of the new standards? • What is the current status and future considerations of assessment graduation requirements? BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  3. Washington’s Content Standards BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  4. Common Core Standards and NGSS Common Core Standards NGSS Based on National Research Council K12 Framework for Science Education (42 states implementing Framework) Development led by Achieve, funded by Carnegie (26 Lead States participating in development) Informed by research-based models High stakeholder involvement • State-led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices and the Council of Chief State School Officers (48 states) • Informed by the highest, most effective models from states, are evidence-based • Developed in collaboration with teachers, school administrators, and experts BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  5. CCSS and NGSSWashington’s Implementation Timeline & Activities BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  6. New Assessments • More rigorous tests measuring student progress toward “college and career readiness” • Have common, comparable scoresacross member states, and across consortia • Provide achievement and growth information to help make better educational decisions and professional development opportunities • Assess all students, except those with “significant cognitive disabilities” • Administer online, with timely results • Use multiple measures Source: Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 68 / Friday, April 9, 2010 pp. 18171-85 BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  7. SMARTER Balanced:A National Consortium of States • 27 states representing 43% of K-12 students • 21 governing, 6 advisory states • Washington state is fiscal agent • WestEd provides project management services BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  8. A Balanced Assessment System Summative assessments Benchmarked to college and career readiness Teachers and schools have information and tools they need to improve teaching and learning Common Core State Standards specify K-12 expectations for college and career readiness All students leave high school college and career ready Teacher resources for formative assessment practices to improve instruction Interim assessments Flexible, open, used for actionable feedback BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  9. Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) Portion Setting Performance Standards (Cut Scores) • Built on solid technology • Coverage of full breadth/depth of Common Core • Precise assessment of all students • K-12, higher ed, business, and policymakers part of decision-making • Broad review of “Achievement Level Descriptors” • Field testing includes PISA, TIMSS, NAEP items • Longitudinal data systems used for triangulation Summative Assessments for Accountability in English language arts/Literacy and Math Performance Task (PT) Portion • Deeper learning with thematic and scenario-based tasks • Real-world problems aligned to Common Core • PT scores combined with CAT for overall score BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  10. A Balanced Assessment System English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, Grades 3-8 and High School School Year Last 12 weeks of the year* DIGITAL CLEARINGHOUSE of formative tools, processes and exemplars; released items and tasks; model curriculum units; educator training; professional development tools and resources; scorer training modules; and teacher collaboration tools. Optional Interim Assessment Optional Interim Assessment • PERFORMANCE TASKS • ELA/Literacy • Mathematics • COMPUTER ADAPTIVE TESTS • ELA/Literacy • Mathematics Computer Adaptive Assessment and Performance Tasks Computer Adaptive Assessment and Performance Tasks Re-take option Scope, sequence, number and timing of interim assessments locally determined *Time windows may be adjusted based on results from the research agenda and final implementation decisions.

  11. Washington’s Involvement Washington’s involvement in Next Generation Science Standards Washington’s involvement in Smarter Balanced Washington is a lead state partner for developing the standards Likely will join a consortium for assessment development Pilot the assessment in 2015-16? Operational use of the assessment in 2016-17? • OSPI staff involved in workgroups 2010-12 • Teachers involved in item writing Summer 2012 • Limited pilot in 2012-13 • Comprehensive field test in 2013-14 • Operational use in 2014-15 • Higher Ed representation on key SBAC committees Find out more at: smarterbalanced.org BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  12. Testing System Transition Current Testing System • Reading and Math: Grades 3–8 and 10 • Writing: Grades 4, 7, 10 • Science: Grades 5, 8, 10 SMARTER Balanced (SBAC) / Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Testing System • English/Language Arts and Math: Grade 3–8 and 11* • Science exams are required under ESEA but are not included in SBAC *11th grade to measure college and career readiness. We are working with higher ed to explore the possible use of these measures as an alternative for college placement (or entrance). () BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  13. Current StatewideSummative (Student) Assessments BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  14. Washington’s Context…Likely Summative Assessments in 2014–15 * BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  15. Current Testing Requirements for High School Graduation by Class BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  16. 11th graders in Class of 2013Percent meeting and not meeting assessment requirement need 2 subjects needonly writing need 3 subjects need only reading need only math 26.0% have notmet requirement have met requirement BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  17. The Class of 2013, as of Spring 2012 • 74,598 students enrolled in the 11th grade in the Class of 2013 • 2,489 Class of 2013 students enrolled in the 10th grade • 477 Class of 2013 students enrolled in the 9th grade • Maximum (Collection of Evidence) COE cost for math for Class of 2013: 70,000 x 23% x $400 = $6.44M • NOTE: 61% of 2011–12 sophomores met standards on the Biology EOC exam • COE costs for Class of 2015 (5 subjects) could exceed $10M, assuming 50% of eligible students submit portfolios

  18. What About Graduation Requirements? • Smarter Balanced tests measure college and career readiness. Should this be criteria for graduation? * % of Class of 2012 (reading) , 2013 (math), and 2015 (Biology) who met standard on exit exams or Certificate of Academic Achievement options ** Some Washington students are included in the national sample but no state level is available WSASCD—OSPI—WASA Annual Conference 10/12/12

  19. SBAC assessments will measure career- and college-readiness BiCounty (Lincoln and Grant) Administrators/Teachers Meeting

  20. HighSchoolTesting • How much is appropriate? • Currently five at 10th grade: Algebra, Geometry, Reading, Writing, Biology • 2014–15 Add two (SMARTER Balanced likely choice): • 11th grade E/LA • 11th grade math • How many should be passed for graduation? • Class of 2015 (2012–13 sophomores) must pass five • College and career-ready cut score for 11th grade exams is likely too high for graduation • How much do graduation tests cost? • Approximately $10M for Collection of Evidence (COE) for Class of 2015 • 11th grade tests will add $30/student/test

  21. Using SBAC for High School Graduation Tests Note: 10th grade exams measure high school proficiency with passage required for graduation; 11th grade exams measure career and college-ready standards.* 10th grade math exams could be separate Algebra and Geometry EOC exams. *
