The WASL is a high-stakes test that is administered in the spring of a school year. Classroom-Based Assessment—are multi-stepped tasks or projects aligned to specific state standards (Health and Fitness EALRs/GLEs) which require students to apply concepts and thinking skills in meaningful, authentic tasks Minimum state standards (what is passing?)—On a four-point rubric, a student must earn a “three” or “four” to “pass” or meet minimum state standards Prompt—a scenario or situation for the student to read which leads into the questions Glossary for Scoring Health and Fitness Classroom-Based Assessments

15. CBA UPDATES Frequently Asked Questions Who is responsible for the copying costs of the CBAs? Schools will provide the copies needed per their students. The directions and prompt for each student is 1-3 pages in length. There are a few exceptions. For most items students will provide responses on the paper that they either bring to school with them or is supplied by the school. The school districts are responsible for the copying costs of the CBAs. Who is responsible for scoring the CBAs? Each teacher will usually serve as the primary scorer of their student’s CBA responses. Therefore, it is important that teachers responsible for health and fitness teaching receive formal scoring training. In addition to this training, districts can assure that scores are more reliable if a percentage of CBA responses are scored by at least two scorers who can compare notes and resolve differences by reviewing “anchor” papers. When two teachers score one CBA, this will increase reliability – however, this would be at the district’s discretion rather than being a state requirement. When teachers score their student’s responses, both the student and teacher receive immediate feedback on what has been learned.
