–What are the District priorities?
–Developing pre-assessments

What Are Student Learning Objectives (SLOs)?
4
Represents the most important learning for the year (or, semester,
where applicable).
Based on available prior student learning data.
Specific and measurable.Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any
other district and school priorities.
A Student Learning Objective (SLO) is an academic goal set
for students at the start of a course.

Who Needs an SLO? (SLO Guidance, p. 10)
No SLO!
as long as there are a
minimum of 16 student
scores (ELA + math)
or fewer than 16 student scores

State-provided growth measures
(4 - 8 ELA & math) must be used
even if not the majority of
students!
State assessments without State-
provided growth measures (4 & 8
science, Regents exams, RCTs,
NYSAA, NYSESLAT) used only if
they are part of the largest
courses.
Begin with the course with the
largest # of students!

Exploring the SLO Template
11
NYS SLOs MUST Include:
Student Population Which students are being addressed?
Learning Content What is being taught? CCSS/National/State standards? Will this goal apply to all standards applicable to a course or just to specific priority standards?
Interval of Instructional Time
What is the instructional period covered (if not a year, rationale for semester/quarter/etc.)?
Evidence What assessment(s) or student work product(s) will be used to measure this goal?
Baseline What is the starting level of learning for students covered by this SLO?
Target(s) What is the expected outcome (target) by the end of the instructional period?
HEDI Criteria How will evaluators determine what range of student performance “meets” the goal (effective) versus “well-below” (ineffective) , “below” (developing), and “well-above” (highly effective)?
Rationale Why choose this learning content, evidence and target?
![Page 12: Student Learning Objectives & Developing Assessments€¦ · Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any other district and school priorities. A Student Learning](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060603/60577cc668bda023ca5cba51/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Exploring the SLO Template
• Population: Who are the students in the class? Full class rosters of all students must be provided!
• Learning Content:
–Common Core/National/State Standards?
![Page 13: Student Learning Objectives & Developing Assessments€¦ · Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any other district and school priorities.

Evidence?
• What specific assessments (pre & summative) will be used to measure this goal?
• The assessment must align to the learning content of the course!

Pre-assessments
• Starting point for learning
• Consider district priorities (i.e. writing, fluency, math)
• Should be parallel to summative
• Could be based on prior years’ assessment results
• Options: District/BOCES or regionally developed, 3rd party
• Security: (SLO Guidance, p. 20)
– Not disseminated to students before administration
– Not scored by teachers and principals with a vested interest
![Page 17: Student Learning Objectives & Developing Assessments€¦ · Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any other district and school priorities.

Summative Assessments
• MUST use State assessment where one is available
• MUST be “rigorous and comparable”
• Options: District/BOCES or regionally developed, 3rd party
• Security: (SLO Guidance, p. 20)
– Not disseminated to students before administration
– Not scored by teachers and principals with a vested interest

• Why is this learning important?
• Incorporate district priorities
• Focus on college and career readiness
• Alignment between pre- and summative assessments
• Keep it simple!

Assessments
• Must be “rigorous and comparable”
• Must be developed district/BOCES-wide or regionally—not by just one teacher!
• Test should reflect Common Core Shifts & Standards: informational reading, text-based questions, academic vocabulary, math priorities
![Page 31: Student Learning Objectives & Developing Assessments€¦ · Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any other district and school priorities.

Developing Assessments for SLOs
• What common summative assessments are currently used?
• Step back and look at the Big Picture.
• Do the assessments reflect the 8 - 10 Big Ideas we want students to understand deeply—the most important learning for the year?
![Page 32: Student Learning Objectives & Developing Assessments€¦ · Aligned to Common Core, State, or national standards, as well as any other district and school priorities.

Analyze Current Assessments
Are current summative assessments aligned to NYS Content Area Standards and Common Core Standards? What work needs to be done to assure assessments
are aligned to NYS and Common Core Standards?
Develop pre- and summative assessments to reflect the Big Ideas and Standards of the course.

Writing Assessments
• Balance Standards
• Note the Standard Each Question is Assessing
• Build on Variety of Sources for Questions
• Include a Range of Difficulty Levels

Use functions to model relationships between quantities.
8.F.4: Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
8th Grade Math Standard: Define, evaluate and compare functions

Assessment Item:
A trainer for a professional football team keeps track of the amount of water players consume throughout practice. The trainer observes that the amount of water consumed is a linear function of the temperature on a given day. The trainer finds that when it is 90°F the players consume about 220 gallons of water, and when it is 76°F the players consume about 178 gallons of water.
Part A: Write a linear function to model the relationship between the gallons of water consumed and the temperature.
Part B: Explain the meaning of the slope in the context of the problem.

• Discuss and plan pre-assessments.
• Check for inclusion of Common Core shifts (informational texts, text-based questions, and academic vocabulary) or math priorities.
• Begin to complete highlighted sections of the SLO template.
