• Cognitive levels tested by the new
assessments are dramatically

28. Depth of Knowledge
• Level 1: Recall and
Reproduction
• Level 2: Basic skills
and concepts
• Level 3: Strategic
thinking and
reasoning
• Level 4: Extended
thinking
29. DOK Levels: SBAC vs. EOC
• Analysis of SBAC math assessments
by Bob Linn & Joan Herman, 2013
– 49% at DOK 3
– 21% at DOK 4
• Analysis of 2012 Algebra EOC
– 9% at DOK 3 (4/43 items)
– None at DOK 4
34. Computer Adaptive Tests
“Based on student responses, the
computer program adjusts the difficulty
of questions throughout the
assessment. By adapting to the student
as the assessment is taking place,
these assessments present an
individually tailored set of questions to
each student and can quickly identify
which skills students have mastered.”
– Smarter Balanced
37. What is a Claim?
• Claims are broad statements of the
assessment system's learning
outcomes
• Each claim requires evidence that
will support interpretations of
competence towards
achievement of the claims
38. Claims for Summative Assessment
• At each grade level within
mathematics, there is one overall
claim encompassing the entire
content area and four specific
content claims.

39. Claims for Summative Assessment
• Overall Claim for Grades 3–8
– “Students can demonstrate
progress toward college and
career readiness in
mathematics.”
• Overall Claim for Grade 11
– “Students can demonstrate
college and career readiness in
mathematics.”

40. High-Quality Assessment Criteria
Align to College- and Career-Readiness
(CCR) standards, by:
1. Focusing strongly on the content most
needed for success in later
mathematics
2. Assessing a balance of concepts,
procedures and applications
3. Connecting practices to content
4. Requiring a range of cognitive
demand

IMPLICATIONS AND NEEDS
69. “To help young people learn the more
complex and analytical skills they need
for the 21st century, teachers must
learn to teach in ways that develop
higher-order thinking and
performance.”
Darling-Hammond and Richardson, 2009
70. Implications for Instruction
• The CCSS-M topics of study don’t
look radically different
• The deep change takes place in:
– Teaching deeply, not broadly
– How teachers teach the curriculum
– What teachers do in the classroom to
foster higher-order cognitive skills
71. Implementing the Common Core
• What do you need in order to do this
work?
– Teach the content standards
– Address the mathematical practices
– Implement the shifts
– Prepare students for the assessments
– Create students who are college
and career ready
72. Teacher Needs
• What do you need in order to do this
work?
– Grades 9-10
– Grades 11-12
73. Next Steps
• What is the most important need?
• What could be the next step(s) to fill
this need?
