Allowing more time in curriculum meetings to revamp tests. ]]> 2017-02-27 19:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156537291 Fields https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550170 Ensure curriculum groups are using the 6 questions to guide assessment creation/editing

Start each unit by looking at the assessment and plan from there

Develop common formative assessments for each unit; bring results and student samples to curriculum meetings]]> 2017-02-27 20:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550170 Crutchfield nina_crutchfield https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550451 In creating common assessments, we realized that we try too hard to make the standard fit the test that was already created.  We found it important that each question should correctly assess the standard and then guide instruction for the unit.]]> 2017-02-27 20:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550451 Allen dallen97 https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550479 We must use the questions for creation and revision with fidelity. As instructional leaders we should try to model this work in our meetings to ensure that all team leads are comfortable in the process.

I think we will need (especially for science and the new AKS) more DOK training. Science will have to create new formative and summative assessments with greater DOK for next year. We need time to plan now for formative/summative assessments. https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156550612 Mintz/Daniel

We need to continue moving away from level one questions and ask for more eyes to look at the tests before giving them out. ]]> 2017-02-27 20:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156551096 Tester https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156551528 Start with the assessment first. 

Properly align the question with the standard

Use AP level questions and modify for lower level classes/question banks

Work on DOK level of questions]]> 2017-02-27 20:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156551528 Backwards planning is key. https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156551564 2017-02-27 20:06:00 UTC https://padlet.com/nia_thornton/dx2jk2sshtk5/wish/156551564 Also something to consider with building common assessments is spiraling AKS strands, i.e, "Blast from the Past" questions, especially in content areas that have End of Course Tests.
