Our Assessment Landscape Is Changing
• Assessment development is a process, not an event
– As such, some components may need to be rolled-out in stages
• Georgia is transitioning from a set of long-standing, mature programs
– Districts, schools, students, parents, and the public are familiar with and know what to expect
• This transition provides Georgia with an opportunity
– However, as with any change, there will be periods of uncertainty and discomfort Melissa Fincher

A NEW Assessment System
Georgia Milestones Assessment System
Please do NOT refer to them as GMAS –no acronyms, please. Call them Georgia Milestones.
11/6/2014 15
Georgia Milestones will
consist of both end
of grade (EOG) and end of
course (EOC) measures.

Georgia Milestones
• Grades 3-8
– End of Grade (EOG) in language arts, mathematics, science, social studies
• High School
– End of Course (EOC) in 9th Grade Literature & Composition, American Literature & Comprehension, Coordinate Algebra, Analytic Geometry, Physical Science, Biology, US History, and Economics Melissa Fincher

What happened THIS year?2014-2015
• The separate Writing Test for elementary and middle schools is gone. “Once the Milestone Test rolls in, the other tests will go away.” (Melissa Fincher) Writing will be tested on the Consolidated ELA Milestones test (EOG and EOC).
• What about the GHSWT? It was administered on September 24-25. (Note: Milestones are scheduled Dec. for block schedules and April for traditional.) So, the GHSWT goes away next year.

A New Assessment SystemComprehensive
– single program, not series of tests (e.g., CRCT; EOCT; WA)
Coherent
– consistent expectations and rigor to position Georgia students to
compete with peers nationally and internationally
– consistent signal about student preparedness for the next level, be it the
next grade, course, or college/career
– consistent signal about student achievement both within system (across
grades and courses) and with external measures (NAEP; PSAT; SAT;
ACT)
Consolidate
– combine reading, language arts, and writing into a single measure to
align to the standardsMelissa Fincher

ELA Consolidated Test (includes RL, RI, W, L)
• Includes Selected Response Questions, higher DOK
• Requires close analytic reading to construct meaning, make inferences, draw conclusions, compare and contrast ideas, identify themes, etc., as well as synthesize ideas and concepts across multiple texts
• Asks students to develop informative/ explanatory responses or narratives, produce opinions/arguments –citing evidence from text(s) and using standard language conventions, etc. Melissa Fincher

Georgia Milestones: Unique Features
Item Types• Selected-Response [aka, multiple-choice]
– all content areas
– evidence-based selected response in ELA
• Constructed-Response
– ELA and mathematics
• Extended-Response
– ELA and mathematics
• Technology Enhanced
– to begin in 2016-2017
Constructed response is a general term for assessment items that require the student to generate a response as opposed to selecting a response. Extended-response items require more elaborate answers and explanations of reasoning. They allow for multiple correct answers and/or varying methods of arriving at the correct answer. Writing prompts and performance tasks are examples of extended-response items.

Georgia MilestonesWriting at Every Grade
– All students will encounter a constructed-response item allowing for narrative prose, in response to text, within first or second section of the test.
– Within the writing section of the test, students will read a pair of passages and complete a series of “warm-up” items:o 3 selected-response items asking about the salient features of each
passage and comparing/contrasting between the two passages
o 1 constructed-response item requiring linking the two passages
o 1 writing prompt in which students must cite evidence to support their conclusions, claims, etc.
GenresWriting prompts will be informative/explanatory or opinion/argumentative depending on the grade level. Students could encounter either genre.Warning: Students who simply rewrite excerpts
from the passage(s) to illustrate their point(s) will not receive favorable scores.
