  1. Future of Alternate Achievement Standards and Assessment in Wisconsin 2011-2012 Kristen Burton Erin Faasuamalie Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  2. Overview • Alternate Achievement Standards • General Supervision Enhancement Grant • National Center and State Collaborative (NCSC) • Dynamic Learning Maps Consortium (DLM) • Learning Maps • Common Core Essential Elements • Alternate Assessment System Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  3. CCSS Impact on Wisconsin’s Alternate Achievement Standards and Assessment for Students with Disabilities Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  4. General Supervision Enhancement Grant (GSEG) 2010-2014 IDEA funded grant awarded by the Office of Special Education Programs, at the U.S. Dept. of Education. • Four Years • Two consortia were awarded grants • National Center and State Collaborative • Dynamic Learning Maps Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  5. National Center and State Collaborative Develop and validate learning progressions with students with significant cognitive disabilities, including skill sequences that can be used in instruction and assessment, building on the potential of technology.

  7. DLM Consortium Member States Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  8. Timeline Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  9. Outcomes of the Consortium • New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math • Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. • Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive • Professional development modules for teacher training • Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  10. Common Core Essential Elements • The Common Core Essential Elements (CCEE) are specific statements of the content and skills that are linked to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) grade level specific expectations for students with significant cognitive disabilities. Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  11. Mathematics Domain Distribution Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  12. ELA Domain Distribution Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  13. CCSS Examples Are Essential Too Linked • Instructional • Achievement • Level • Descriptors • Assessment • Achievement • Level • Descriptors • Essential • Elements EXAMPLES Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  14. Common Core Essential Elements • CCEEs currently being reviewed for adoption • Professional development tools are being created to support the roll-out and implementation of CCEEs Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  15. CCEEs Timeline • 2012-2013: Awareness and Understanding/Implementation • 2013-2014: Implementation/Application and Practice • 2014-2015: Spring Alternate Assessment administered Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  16. What should districts be doing now? • Gain understanding of the CCSS • Collaborate with content areas educators for ELA and math • Participate in professional development related to the CCSS Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  17. Document Organization Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  18. Activity After reviewing the CCEE and IALDs: • What questions do you have? • Did you have any “A’HA” realizations? • Do you have concerns? • How do you see this playing out in your classroom/school/district? • What support will you need to implement the CCEEs? Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  19. Outcomes of the Consortium • New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math • Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. • Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive • Professional development modules for teacher training • Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  20. What are Learning Maps? Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  21. Use perceptual subitizing Identify more than one Identify one Recognized wholeness Create a model of quantity Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  22. Use perceptual subitizing Compare two quantities up to ten using models Equal quantity Identify more number of Identify fewer number of Identify more than one Identify same number of Identify different number of Identify one Compare sets Explain set Recognize wholeness Recognize same Recognize different Create a model of quantity Compare objects Imitate Multiple Pathways Math Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  23. Multiple Pathways ELA – What if you are DHH? Can identify syllables Can demonstrate articulatory movements for letter sounds Demonstrates receptive rhyming Demonstrates understanding letter sounds Aware of same and different phonological units as sounds Aware of same and different phonological units as visual or tangible Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  24. Outcomes of the Consortium • New extended standards and achievement level descriptors based on the Common Core State Standards for ELA and Math • Learning maps, which will include tasks of various proficiency levels leading to formative assessment and tools for educators. • Annual summative assessment (used for accountability purposes)- online, adaptive • Professional development modules for teacher training • Advanced feedback and reporting systems (including growth modeling) Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  25. The Future of Alternate Assessment • The Dynamic Learning Maps, along with the CCEEs will provide the foundation for a new summative alternate assessment available in 2014-15. • Wisconsin will participate in the development of a new assessment if the test design fits with our needs, or we will develop our own assessment based on the new standards. • The current WAA-SwD will continue to be administered until a new assessment is available. Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

  26. Key Features of Dynamic Learning Maps System An assessment system that provides a summative (point-in-time) assessment as well as formative and interim assessment components for ELA and mathematics throughout the year. • Computer adaptive summative assessment • Grades 3–8 and 11 (testing window in the Spring) • Selected response, constructed response, technology enhanced instructionally relevant items • Computer adaptive formative and interim tools • Based on learning maps • Administered throughout the year • Professional development modules for educators • Advanced feedback and reporting systems Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction
