Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium
Theory of Action Goal To ensure that all students leave high school prepared for postsecondary success in college or a career through increased student learning and improved teaching Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium
SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium Summative assessments using online computer-adaptive technologies • Efficiently provides accurate measurement of all students, better than a “one size fits all” approach • Assesses full range of CCSS in English language arts and math • Describes both current achievement and growth across time, indicating progress toward college- and career-readiness • Scores provide reliable state-to-state comparability, with standards set against national and international benchmarks • States and districts have option of giving the summative tests twice a year
SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium Optional interim and formative assessments • Aligned to and reported on the same scale as the summative assessments • Helps identify specific needs of each student, so teachers can provide appropriate, targeted instructional assistance • Teachers involved in item and task design and scoring, with interim/formative assessments being non-secure and fully accessible • Provides students with clear examples of the expected performance on common standards
SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium Online, tailored reporting system • Supporting educator access to information about student progress toward career and college readiness • Student performance history can be transported across districts and states • Although the backbone of the reporting system is provided by the Consortium, individual states retain jurisdiction over access permissions and front-end “look” of online reports
SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium Benefits and efficiencies from “economies of scale” due to a multi-state consortium • Cost savings: SMARTER English language arts/Math estimated at ~$21 per student (compared to current ~$43 for WA) [Interim/formative an additional ~$7 per student] • Shared interoperable software platforms: Item generation, item banking, and adaptive testing no longer exclusive property of vendors • Agreed-upon protocols for accommodations for students with disabilities and ELL students
Assessment Design The Consortium will provide the following by the 2014 -15 school year: 3. Formative tools and resources 4. Responsible flexibility 5. Distributed summative assessment a. Content clusters throughout a course b. Most appropriate time for each student c. Scores rolled up Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium
Assessment Design “Through course” option reflects the greatest flexibility for States and allows for differentiated instruction” Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium
