SPAR Activity:Scaling the Proficiency Assessment Range

. . . and creating new AEs for NC


SPAR ActivityGoogle Doc at http://tinyurl.com/SPARactivity

1. Choose a Student Example to adapt and indicate its 21st Century skills and themes

2. Determine the proficiency level

3. Specify COs from the WLES

4. Note the program(s) that could use it

5. Write it as an Assessment Example

http://tinyurl.com/SPARactivity



STUDENT EXAMPLE: Students listen to authentic audio clips featuring native speakers describing an event, and can match the oral description to a picture, or put pictures in the order of the sequence of events as described.

Measures of Student Learning (MSL) Design Groups

World Language Groups met on Oct. 24-25:– Classical Languages (Novice Low – Advanced Mid)

– Dual & Heritage Languages (Novice Low – Advanced Mid)

– Modern Languages• Novice Low – High• Intermediate Low – High • Advanced Low – Mid

For more information, contact Jenn Preston, RttT Project Coordinator for Teacher and Leader Effectiveness, at [email protected]



MSL Item Types Discussed

• Selected Response (SR)

• Short Answer (SA)

• Extended Response (ER)

• Performance Task (PT)

• Portfolio (PF)


What MSLs Are• Measures of what students know and are able to

do after completing a course or grade

• Tightly linked to the instruction that a teacher delivers

• One part of how North Carolina will evaluate the effectiveness of its teachers

• Similar to the common summative assessments that many districts already have in place

What MSLs Are NOT• Multiple-choice standardized exams for all areas

of the Standard Course of Study

• Assessments that need to be delivered with the same level of security as EOCs and EOGs

• Designed without teacher input

• The only source of data used to make decisions about a teacher’s effectiveness

• Part of the school accountability model

MSL Next Steps: 2011-12• March 2012: Design groups begin to

return to vet items created by vendor• April/May 2012: Design groups return to

design rubrics, administration instructions, and guidance on grading the MSLs

• Late Spring/Early Fall: Pilot-test MSLs

World Language Curriculum Workshops– Focus: Classroom Curriculum Planning

– Past and future workshops:• December 5th: Region 5
