ALTERNATE ASSESSMENT UPDATE
MI-Access will remain the STATE Alternate Assessment
Not moving toward Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM)

MI-Access April 11, 2016 – May 28, 2016

WHAT WILL BE ASSESSED SPRING 2016?
Michigan educators designated which Essential Elements would be measured at the state level keeping the strands measured by the general assessment in mind
Assessment will contain some items that meet the extended content expectations and essential elements
Educator panel designated which EE’s would be measured on the assessment and the Ranges of Complexity

PSAT 9TH AND 10TH GRADERS There will be no alternate assessment in 9th and 10th grades
in 2015–16 as this will be the first time MDE will be administering a state summative assessment in these grades.
During these first transitional years for testing in grades 9 and 10, all students, including those assessed with MI-Access, are welcome to take the PSAT.
If an IEP team determines the PSAT is not appropriate for an individual student and documents this determination in the student's IEP, the student or school will not be penalized for not taking the PSAT.
MDE will convene a group of stakeholders who routinely work with students who take alternate assessments in Michigan to seek their input on what is the most appropriate and meaningful way to assess students in these grades as we move forward.

WRITING IEPS ……… ANY CHANGES?
Assessment will remain the same Accommodations will remain the same Spring 2016 MI-Access Reading and Math
based on Essential Elements Note: Your curriculum should now align with
new Essential Elements

MIX AND MATCH ASSESSMENTS
Can mix and match assessments grade 3-8 for Functional Independence M-STEP ELA, Mi-Access Math M-STEP MATH and Science, MI-Access ELA M-STEP Math, MI-Access LEA and Social Studies
For grade 11, can now mix and match but ELA
and Math assessment must be same assessment.

WHATS NEW FOR FUNCTIONAL INDEPENDENCE
Embedded Calculator for Mathematics Student may still use familiar calculator if needed
Listening items for English/Language Arts Available using text engine voice or use reader
script.
Watch for Spotlight newsletter for other new enhancements

FUNCTIONAL INDEPENDENCE ALLOWABLE ACCOMMODATION NOT ON CHART
If student is unable to click the little button to make the audio start at a specific point, they can raise their hand and you can do it for them.

FI TIPS CONTINUED
The test is broken into two parts You can change the order of administration Expressing Ideas may be given independently from the
rest of the ELA section Expressing ideas will remain Paper/Pencil only
Computer cannot capture drawing. Be sure to consider both the writing and drawing when scoring.
The system will time out after 15 minutes of no use. Will need to log back in.
Can continue a test on a different computer (need to log back in)

FUTURE WORK
Essential Elements for K-2nd 9-10th and 12 No current plans to change social studies and
science

COMMON CORE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS: DESIGN PRIORITIES • Define essential differences from grade to grade in – cognitive demand – content knowledge – skills‐based expectations • Identify the key elements essential for each grade level. – Not necessarily a one‐to‐one relationship with Common Core State Standards • Align Essential Elements across and between grades
![Page 20: MI-ACCESS /ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012708/61a8a41922a2cd16da196595/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
COMMON CORE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS ARE NOT
Replacements for the Common Core State Standards
Downward extensions Statements of functional skills Curriculum or learning progressions
![Page 21: MI-ACCESS /ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012708/61a8a41922a2cd16da196595/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Like the Common Core State Standards, the Essential Elements do NOT define what is taught or how it should be taught
![Page 22: MI-ACCESS /ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012708/61a8a41922a2cd16da196595/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
REVISED ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS ELA/MATH
Introduce the Michigan Range of Complexity, which outlines how the skills associated with each target Essential Element (that will be measured as “state assessable”) is drafted to be assessed for the three levels of MI-Access (Functional Independence, Supported Independence, Participation).
Provide educators with the full scope of the Essential Elements and Range of Complexity for both long term planning and to provide a resource in planning for instruction this fall.

NEW TO ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS
Range of Complexity High Range = Functional Independence Medium Range = Supported Independence Low Range = Participation

The range of complexity will not be added to the Edplan drop down until they are finalized.
At this time, use the Essential Element to
connect your goal to the content standards.

HOW WILL YOU?
Inform parents on new content expectations? Modify your instructional planning to align with
Essential elements? Handle parents that request to “Opt Out” of
testing?

MEMO 3/25/15 VENESSA A. KEESLER, PH. D. DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT, ACCOUNTABILITY SERVICES
This memo provides the official position of the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) and supersedes any previous communication regarding "parental opt out.” The MDE understands and respects the rights of parents to make all manner of choices regarding the education of their students. However, there is no official ability in state or federal law for parents to have their child 'opt out' of the assessments, without counting against their school and district’s participation rates. Please also remember that any student in a Michigan public school is being taught Michigan content standards, and this is simply an opportunity to understand their progress in learning those standards.
