Review: What is the PARCC
The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers
• PISA (Program for International Student Assessment)-65 Nations (Ed. Systems) in 2013.
• America 30th in Mathematics, 20th in Reading, and 23rd in Science.• PARCC is a coalition of states that are working to create and
deploy a standard set of K-12 assessments in Math and English Language Arts.
• Within PARCC, a group of states base the content of these assessments on what it takes to be successful in college and careers in the future.
• These examinations will also coincide with the full range of the Common Core State Standards Initiative and the New Jersey Student Learning Standards to make certain that standards are present in classrooms.

TESTING TIMES
Administration Time is the total time that schools should schedule for each unit. It includes the unit testing time and the approximate times for administrative tasks such as reading instructions to students, answering questions, distributing test materials, closing units, and collecting test materials.
Example: When the unit testing time is 75 minutes, schools might schedule a total of 100 minutes: 15 minutes for reading directions + 75 minutes of testing + 10 minutes for closing the unit.
TESTING TIMES
Unit Testing Time is the amount of time that must be provided to any student who needs it to complete the unit.
If all students have completed testing before the end of the unit testing time, the unit may end. Once the unit testing time has been reached, the unit must end, except for students with extended time accommodations.
UNIT TESTING TIMES

PARCC uses five performance levels that delineate the knowledge, skills, and practices students are able to demonstrate:
Level 1:
Did Not Yet Meet
Expectations
Level 2:Partially Met Expectations
Level 3:Approached Expectations
Level 4:Met
Expectations
Level 5: Exceeded
Expectations
Five Performance Levels
PARCC vs. Traditional Assessments
In ELA/literacy, the PARCC assessments will look much deeper at student writing abilities and critical-thinking skills.
In math, students will have to solve complex problems, show their work, and demonstrate how they solved the problem.
PARCC will more closely resemble high-quality classroom work. PARCC will measure what children are learning, in a more meaningful way.
PARCC’s estimated testing time is reasonable.
PARCC vs. Traditional Assessments Continued
PARCC is designed to measure the full range of knowledge and skills students need to be career and college ready, through performance-based tasks.
PARCC is innovative in design and more engaging for students.
PARCC will produce a clearer and more accurate picture of student achievement.

21st Century Learning Skills
National and state educational goals include preparing students for careers and for college, where 21st-century skills are essential for success.
For example, one of the Language Arts standards for grade six states that a student should be capable of producing and publishing what they write using a computer and the internet.
To collaborate with project teams to solve problems? How do we teach them to use the internet to locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media?
How do we ensure our students are good digital citizens? What are some best practices for technology integration?
We are striving to prepare our students for success on the PARCC assessment by implementing digital learning in our classrooms, challenging students to think critically, differentiating instruction for a diversity of learning experiences, and fostering confidence among our students in their knowledge and skills.
