How can we use this to accommodate our WIA vision?

b. What are the benefits of showing our students an ACT writing WIA?

c. What are the drawbacks of using/participating in an ACT writing study?

It would be interesting to see how we score as opposed to how ACT scores.

One less prompt to have to create.

With it being 2 -40 minute prompts, that would mean two prompts for our juniors and only one for the rest of the school.

2 - 40 minute assessments (I think we could make copies of the students work before we send it to be scored, if we are allowed to)

If Writing ACT is going to be mandatory or relative to our students, then I say we go for it.

Such a long time before we receive feedback.

I like the idea of prompts with feedback from ACT. One drawback would be the delay in receiving the feedback. Would this be too long to be beneficial for the students?

A look at a different Rubric will be real-world exposure!

Feedback--three months later is a problem.

How will this work into the pacing plan/district-wide?
