Module 2: Collecting Standards-based Evidence
Back to "Professional Development Sessions"
In Module 2, participants use mathematics standards of a hypothetical school district with a group of assessment items, to answer the question, What standards does the assessment address? Participants also discuss: How do we select assessment items? How do we decide which standards to emphasize in our assessments? and Are all standards "testable?"
As a result of engaging in Module 2, participants will:
- look carefully at assessment tools to determine what they actually require of students,
- use standards as a guide for creating assessments,
- build an assessment framework, and
- look for gaps and overlaps in their own assessments.
