Standards in the Education Sector
• Content Standards
• Performance Standards
• Data Standards
• Interoperability Standards
![Page 7: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Content Standards
• Definition of the knowledge, skills, and abilities students are expected to develop
• State specific
• Common Core
![Page 8: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Performance Standards
• Level at which students are expected to develop mastery of content standards
• State-developed summative assessments are one tool used to measure achievement of performance standards
• Consortia developed assessment programs will be used to measure achievement of Common Core standards
![Page 9: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Data Standards
• Data Standards are documented agreements on representations, formats, and definitions of common data. Data standards improve the quality and share-ability of data by:– Increasing data compatibility – Improving the consistency and efficiency of data
collection – Reducing data redundancy
![Page 10: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Data Standards
• Variable Names
• Expected values/content type
• Example:– Topic: Gender– Variable Name: Gen– Value: 0 = Female, 1=Male
![Page 11: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Data Standard Applied – Topic: Gender
• Database 1:– Variable Name: Gender– Value: M = Male, F = Female
• Database 2:– Variable Name: Sex– Value: 1=Male, 2=Female
• Export Conversion– DB 1: Gender = Gen, M=0, F=1– DB 2: Sex = Gen, 1=0, 2=1
• Import Conversion– DB 1: Gen = Gender, 0=M, 1=F– DB 2: Gen = Sex, 0=1, 1=2

Interoperability Standards
• Interoperability is the ability of a system or a product to work with other systems or products without special effort on the part of the customer.
![Page 14: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Interoperable Assessments
• Require Commonly Understood:– File format for item content– Codes/tags for item content– Representation of and interactions with content – Scoring rules
![Page 15: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Interoperability & Data Standards for Assessment
• Interoperability standards required for:– Item content file format, presentation of that content,
interactions with the content, and scoring of responses
• Data Standards required for:– Information about items (e.g., what they measure,
parameters)– Information about students (e.g., identification,
demographics, access needs)– Recording results

Next Steps
• Establish touch points between APIP and SIF Student Data Standards
• Incorporate APIP PNP in Common Education Data Standards
• Develop business rules and best practices for applying APIP accessibility tags
• Modify or develop APIP compliant item authoring systems and test delivery systems
![Page 25: Accessible Portable Item Profile (APIP) Standard: Key Concepts and Terms](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56815b9c550346895dc9a38f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Next Steps
• Continue Educating leaders and educators about APIP and Accessibility Profiles
• Develop tools to assist in creating sound Personal Needs Profiles
• Adopt APIP prior to development of RttTA item content
