• Read your research brief • Boil it down - What does it say,
where does it align, what do I think about it. 1-2 sentences and record in the template.
• Go find 4-5 more pieces of research from other people.
• Return to your group.

The Envelope Please…
• Take out the slips of paper with sample “standards” on them.
• Order them from broadest to most specific.
• Draw a line, or separate, the standards that you can come to consensus should be required for every student in your k-12 system to learn and demonstrate.

Robert Marzano pointed out that at one time there were 3,500 performance indicators across 14 content areas K-12.
So, what’s the problem with standards?

“You would have to change schooling from K-12 to K-22. The sheer number of standards is the biggest impediment to implementing standards.”

DRAFT SEPTEMBER 2015
Design Guide for Content-Area Graduation Standards DRAFT SEPTEMBER 2015 Districts should define 5-8 standards per content area, which together will allow a district to determine students’ proficiency in that content area. Standards should be broad enough that they apply to all grade levels, PK-12. Each standard will be defined by approximately 5-10 Performance Indicators.
Criteria Weaker Statements Stronger Statements
Alignment To what extent does the statement align with national and state standards? Is the statement central to understanding the content area?
● Do not align with national, state, and/or local standards and frameworks;
● Are so narrow, specific, or vague that they are not central to understanding the content area as a whole.
● Align with national, state, and/or local standards and frameworks;
● Use precise, descriptive language that clearly communicates what is essential to building proficiency in the content area.
Transfer Does the statement describe knowledge, and skills that can be applied across multiple disciplines and that will be of value beyond a particular point in time?
● Describe topics that are only relevant to or applicable within a unit, textbook, resource, course, or program;
● Focus on factual content without connecting the statements to enduring cross-curricular and content-specific skills.
● Require students to develop an understanding of relationships among principles, theories, and/or concepts;
● Require students to develop and demonstrate skills and knowledge that will endure throughout their education, careers, and civic lives.
Cognitive Demand Does the statement imply higher order thinking, deep conceptual understanding and transferable skill acquisition?
● Require only basic recall and lower-level cognitive skills, such as identifying, defining, summarizing, or listing;
● Do not require the application of knowledge to diverse or novel problems, texts, or situations.
● Require students to demonstrate higher-order cognitive skills such as reasoning, analyzing, planning, interpreting, hypothesizing, investigating, or creating;
● Require the application of knowledge to diverse or novel problems, texts, or situations.

Data Analysis Template Hunches/hypotheses
What do you think the data will show? Use starters like: I assume… I predict… I wonder... My questions/ expectations are influenced by… Some possibilities for learning that these data may present…

If you catch yourself using: because…therefore…it seems… however…STOP! Instead use starters like: I observe that… Some patterns/trends that I notice… I can count… I’m surprised that… For Item Analysis Data: The skills that students needed to answer this question successfully are…The concept this question is addressing is…. The distracter is… in relation to the correct answer

Use starters like: I believe the data suggests… Additional data that would help me confirm/contradict… I think a solution or response might be… For Item Analysis Data: What students might have been thinking about the distracter is…
