Assessment Feedback
The literacy revision teams wants to ensure that our assessments are of the highest quality possible and have worked to ensure they are aligned with the Iowa Common Core Standards. We also want the assessments to serve as an accurate predictor of success on the Iowa Assessment and other external measures.
Revisions were completed with teams of coaches and teachers. The team conducted statistical analysis of student responses used to gauge questions’ reliability and level of difficulty on a 5 point scale. The literacy revision team also used SRI and Iowa Assessments to calibrate overall difficulty and made adjustments as such. All standards are represented on the assessments.
Please review these drafts and send feedback to [email protected] by October 7, 2013. The final versions of the assessments will be posted to the website and loaded to Data Director on October 11, 2013.
