  1. Key Assessments and the Revised Conceptual Framework

  2. Revised PEF Conceptual Framework We have not created a new framework; rather, we have rearticulated our vision, mission, and learning outcomes to emphasize our focus on research, theory, and practice in urban contexts. • Informed and Empowered • Committed • Engaged Because of the revisions to the conceptual framework, it is necessary to link our key assessments to the revised unit learning outcomes.

  3. Responsibilities for Program Faculty • Make sure that there is a rubric (5-point) for each key assessment (6-8 for initial; 4 for advanced). • Convert each rubric to a LiveText assessment document if it was created in another format, such as “Word.” • Tag each rubric with the revised PEF Conceptual Framework learning outcomes. • Tag each rubric with relevant national standards (INTASC, NBPTS and SPA standards). (see alignment matrix). • “Share” each LiveText rubric with department LT administrator who will create a document authored by the administrator account. • Identify courses in which key assessments will be used. • Work with LT administrator to create assignments that will be linked to key assessment rubrics in LiveText. • Work with LT administrator to set up schedule for reports.

  4. Notes: • Portfolio rubrics can be divided into sections that address more than one domain. Designated sections can be counted as individual key assessments. • All key assessments should be administered through a designated course in LiveText. • Students may or may not need to submit an assignment in order to be assessed. • STARS surveys will be completed by students and faculty this month for summer 2009. New LiveText rubric will replace STARS in summer 2010.

  5. Responsibilities for Department LiveText Administrator • Assist faculty in transferring assessment rubrics to LiveText documents (as needed) • Assist faculty in loading assignments that have key assessments into LiveText • Convert faculty’s rubrics to administrator rubrics • Electronically link key assessment rubrics to the course assignments • Run reports and send to program coordinators as scheduled

  6. Responsibilities for Course Instructors/Supervisors Instructors/supervisors teaching courses that contain key assessments are required to use the assessment rubric to evaluate students on key assessments. If the course does not contain a key assessment, the instructor may choose not to use LiveText for the course.

  7. Steps for Using Assessment Rubrics in a Course • Log in to your LT account. • Locate the course. • Click on the progress bar. • Select student to be evaluated (yellow or red). • Click on the rubric. • Evaluate student by clicking in appropriate box. • Add comments if desired. • Submit Assessment.
