The Purpose Behind the New Standards
• During the 2013 session, the General Assembly passed Public Law 286.
• This new law, Indiana Code 20-19-2-14.5, established the timeline below for the review and adoption of new K-12 academic standards.
Department of Education must provide a written evaluation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) to various officials.
Legislative committee must study issues and hold 3 public meetings. Not later that 11/1/13, it must submit a final report to the State Board of Education.
Before 7/1/14 the SBOE must hold 3 public meetings, adopt and implement college and career readiness standards that are aligned with postsecondary educational expectations.
State Board of Education may take no further action to implement standards until evaluation is complete.
Office of Management and Budget must provide an opinion concerning the fiscal impact to implement or discontinue CCSS.

• Spring 2015 ECAs will include two components: Graduation examination
• Aligned to IAS (2000 Algebra I, 2006 English 10)
Accountability assessment• Aligned to CCR IAS (2014 Algebra I and
English 10)
• Watch for additional ECA updates coming later this fall!

Test Blueprints
• Provide “big picture” view of strands/reporting categories
• Assist in prioritizing curriculum
• Enhance instructional planning
• Guide development of classroom assessments
Instructional and Assessment Guidance
• Provides “granular” view of standards
• Informs curricular and instructional priorities
• Provides transparency regarding assessments ISTEP+ Part 1, ISTEP+ Part 2+, , –
Instructional and Assessment Guidance 2014-15Mathematics – Grade 5
• Represents standards that may be assessed on ISTEP+ Part 1 and ISTEP+ Part 2. All standards may be assessed on ISTEP+ Part 2.

• NEW Acuity Readiness Assessments Grades 3-8, ELA and Math Aligned to the CCR 2014 Indiana Academic
Standards 3 administrations/diagnostic in nature
• Acuity for Algebra I and English 10 Continue Predictive forms for the ECAs NEW CCR-aligned items for use by teachers
Assessment-focused Professional Development
• September/October
• Live and via recorded WebEx sessions
• Focused on: Use of Instructional and Assessment Guidance Sample open-ended items based on new CCR
standards Technology-enhanced item types
“Experience College- and Career-Ready Assessment” Tool
• Technology-enhanced item types
• Training for students and educators
• Engaging and interactive
Teachers are encouraged to use Experience CCRA as an instructional tool
in the classroom!
Transitions: IMAST
• Federal regulations discontinued modified assessments after 2013-14 – Indiana’s version: IMAST
• “IMAST Transition” resources/information available Refer to Office of Student Assessment webpage
• IMPORTANT: Provide local support necessary to students formerly participating in IMAST
Transitions: Future Assessments (Beginning in 2015-16)
• Assessment Resolution passed by Education Roundtable and State Board of Education includes: Summative Assessment (Grades 3-10)
• Grade 10 ISTEP+ becomes new Graduation Examination
• Phase-out ECAs IREAD-3 Alternate assessments (Grades 3-10) Formative assessments (Grades K-10) College- and Career-Readiness Exam (Grade 11) Grade 11, 12 assessments (focused on college
and career)

1 Year Projected Targets
Target scale scores are compared to actual scale scores to categorize Low, Typical, or High Growth.
1 Year Projected Targets with equi-percentile concordance
Target scale scores are compared to actual scale scores to categorize Low, Typical, or High Growth.
(Note: Due to the assessment transition, an equi-percentile concordance will be utilized to translate the target score from the previous assessment scale to a target score on the new assessment scale. Additional validations will be implemented to ensure continuity during the transition.)

Student Growth Percentile
The median SGP along with the standard error is used to generate Educator Effectiveness Growth Ratings (1-4 or 1-5).
(Note: While Student Growth Percentiles are assessment neutral, results will be closely evaluated to ensure accuracy in calculation as well as fidelity in implementation of new academic standards.)
