Implementation of Common Core Learning Standards

The Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) allow states to share a common definition of college and career readiness. If students are to graduate high school fully prepared, they must meet the benchmarks set by the Common Core - at every grade, and in every classroom. July 2010 NYS Board of Regents adopted the CCLS for ELA and mathematics. December 2010 Board of Regents required newly certified New York State teachers to be ready to deliver instruction aligned to the Common Core. June 2013 Student progress on the CCLS will begin to be measured for Grades 3-8 starting with the 2012-2013 school year, and for high school.

Implementation of Common Core Learning Standards

Continued

Since 2011, NYSED has offered explicit guidance to ensure that teachers across the state are prepared to offer CCLS-aligned instruction, such as:

– Network Team Institutes – comprehensive training in the CCLS and its implementation – Release of CCLS sample questions and test guides – Gathering of resources, supports and implementation guidance

  • n EngageNY.org

– Creation of a Common Core Toolkit for Parents and Families

New State Assessments Aligned to the CSLS

  • NYSED is rebuilding its assessment program to measure what students

know and can do relative to the grade-level Common Core Learning

  • Standards. Specific changes to the Grades 3-8 ELA and math tests include

the following:

– Increases in Rigor – The CCLS are back-mapped, grade-by-grade, for college and career

  • readiness. Many of the questions on the Common Core assessments are more advanced

and complex than those found on prior assessments that measured prior grade-level standards. – Focus on Text – To answer ELA questions correctly, students will need to read and analyze each passage completely and closely, and be prepared to carefully consider responses to multiple-choice questions. For constructed response items, students will need to answer questions with evidence gathered from rigorous literature and informational texts. Some texts will express an author’s point of view, with which not all readers will agree. – Depth of Math – Students will be expected to understand math conceptually, use prerequisite skills with grade-level math facts, and solve math problems rooted in the real- world, deciding for themselves which formulas and tools (such as protractors or rulers) to use.

Common Core Assessment Development

Every Item:

  • Designed from scratch to measure Common Core
  • Field-tested
  • Reviewed multiple times in development cycle by multiple

New York State certified teachers

  • Meets industry best practice for item quality, fairness and

accessibility

  • Meets rigorous criteria developed by NYSED [contract
  • bligation]
  • Processes and quality assured by third-party evaluator

[same evaluator as for NAEP]

PARCC Assessment Update

  • A computer-based, innovative assessment system to

test the full range of student performance on the Common Core Learning Standards

  • The assessment will:

– Provide data to inform instruction, interventions, and professional development. – Determine whether students are on track to college and career readiness in math and ELA/Literacy. By 11th grade, students will receive a determination of college and career readiness in math and ELA/Literacy.

  • NYS adoption of PARCC is dependent on Board of

Regents approval.

The New York State English as a Second Language Assessment Test (NYSESLAT)

  • NYSED will utilize a two-phase process to align

the NYSESLAT with the CCLS:

– Phase I (2012-13 & 2013-14) will continue to follow the existing NYS English as a Second Language (ESL) Standard.

  • Phase I features a greater emphasis on academic and

classroom contexts and new types of questions that address the Common Core shift to reading for information.

  • Designed to assess students’ abilities to use and understand

the language more so than content knowledge

– Phase II (Spring 2015) will introduce additional revisions to NYSESLAT to fully align it to the CCLS.

slide-15
SLIDE 15

15

The New York State Identification Test for English Language Learners (NYSITELL)

  • In addition to changes to the NYSESLAT,

NYSED will administer the new ELL identification test in 2013-14.

– Replaces the LAB-R, to address concerns that the LAB-R was not sufficiently aligned with NYSESLAT – Similar to the NYSESLAT, and will be developed from the same pool of questions

  • The similarity will facilitate transition to this

new test.

SLIDE 16

Consequences of Non-Participation

  • The approved ESEA waiver still requires states to make adequate yearly progress

(AYP) determinations based on the state’s new annual measurable objectives (AMOs) for each public school.

  • SED will continue to determine and report AYP each year.
  • Schools in which subgroups do not meet the participation rate (95 percent for

accountability groups consisting of 40 or more students) will fail to make AYP.

– For elementary and middle-level students, participation rate means the “percentage of students enrolled on all days of test administration who did not have a significant medical emergency who received valid scores on the State assessments for elementary and middle-level grades...”

  • Although SED will identify Priority Schools and Focus Districts only once during the

waiver period, SED will continue to use AYP for other purposes, including but not limited to, the identification of Local Assistance Plan (LAP) schools. All students are expected to participate in State assessments as part of the core academic program. For accountability and other statewide reporting purposes, students who do not participate in an assessment are reported to the State as “not tested.”

NYSED anticipates a lower percentage of students who score at or above grade-level against a trajectory of college and career readiness as measured by the new Common Core assessments. However, it is expected that the State-provided growth scores will result in similar proportions of educators earning each rating category* in 2012-13 as compared to 2011-12.

Update on the Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR)

In 2012-2013, all teachers and principals in districts with approved APPR plans will be evaluated using the APPR, and rated as Highly effective, Effective, Developing, or Ineffective (HEDI). For the 2012-13 school year, 20 percent of the evaluation of teachers whose students take the Grades 4-8 ELA and math tests and their building principals, will be based on a State-provided growth scores. This percentage will be adjusted to 25 percent in the first school year for which the Board of Regents has approved use of a value-added growth model, which could be as early as the 2012- 13 school year. Growth calculations will be based on the results of their students’ scores on the 2011-12 State tests compared to scores on the new 2012-13 Common Core State test, after taking into consideration certain student characteristics and the scores of similarly academically achieving students.

Status of State-Provided Growth/ Value-Added Measures Development

NYSED provided measures of student growth based on 2011-2012 State tests in August 2012 to all teachers with grades 4-8 ELA and Math and their principals, as required by Education Law §3012-c. Since then, NYSED has been working on enhancements to the measures with:

  • An external vendor, American Institutes for Research
  • The Metrics work group of the Regents’ Task Force on

APPR

  • NYSED’s Growth Measure Technical Advisory Group
slide-21
SLIDE 21

Proposed Enhancements for Future

  • 1. Modify how students are attributed to teachers in

grades 4-8 ELA/Math.

Existing Growth Model:

  • 195/203 calendar days of enrollment required

(ELA/Math)

  • No adjustment for student attendance
  • Excluded 16% of eligible students in 2011-12

Enhanced Model:

  • 60% minimum enrollment required, results in

attribution of 150K more students to teachers

  • Weight student results (SGPs) by percent of time

enrolled and in attendance

  • Students present for less of the year count less
slide-22
SLIDE 22

Proposed Enhancements for Future

(Continued)

  • 2. Provide State-calculated growth subcomponent

measures for principals with grades 9-12.

Proposal to adopt two student growth measures for grades 9-12 principals. These measure will be combined into one State-provided growth subcomponent rating for principals with grades 9-12.

  • Measure 1: MGP of ELA and Algebra Regents
  • Similar to 4-8 growth measures, grades 9-12 principals will receive a mean

growth percentile based on student scores on the Integrated Algebra and the ELA Regents exams compared to academically similar students using 7th and 8th grade tests, other Regents exams, and all other factors used in 4-8 principal models.

  • Measure 2: Comparative Growth in Regents Exams Passed
  • Principals receive a growth score based on how many Regents exams

students pass compared to similar students, up to eight exams. The definition of similar students will be the same as MGP of ELA/Algebra measure above.

Test Score 8th grade test score Regents Exam score Student A SGP = 58 High SGPs Low SGPs

MGP for ELA and Integrated Algebra Regents Exams: Same Approach as 4-8 MGP Measures

Comparing student A’s Regents Algebra Exam score to other students who had the same 8th grade math score (640), she earned a “student growth percentile” (SGP) of 58, meaning she performed the same or better in the current year than 58% of similar students. SGPs are averaged to get a school Mean Growth Percentile (MGP).

FAQs About This Metric

  • Which test scores count?
  • Regents Exam scores from August of prior year (except for 9th graders),

January, and June

  • Choose the higher of test scores within these administrations
  • Student scores count up until they pass (after students pass, we don’t want

the measure alone to encourage additional test-taking, which may not be necessary).

  • Which students are included?
  • Students who take either exam during the year and are attributed to the

school using the SED rule for minimum enrollment.

  • Students who take the Integrated Algebra or ELA Regents prior to high

school are NOT included in the MGP of a principal of grades 9-12.

  • What kind of scores would be reported?
  • An MGP will be reported for a principal for ELA, Algebra I, and an overall

MGP (as long as minimum N sizes are met for each subject area).

What is This Metric?

  • A major graduation requirement for students is to pass 5 Regents

Exams and advanced Regents degrees require more.

  • This measure compares how much progress the school’s students

are making from one year to the next toward passing up to 8 Regents Exams.

  • On average, about 84% of students in a high school are included

in Comparative Growth in Regents measure.

  • A principal’s score reflects whether or not his/her students exceed the

average change in number of Regents Exams passed each year, as achieved by similar students statewide.

FAQs About This Metric

  • Which test scores count?
  • Regents Exam scores from August of prior year, January, and June
  • Choose the higher of test scores within these administrations on same

tests

  • Student scores count up until they pass (after students pass, we don’t

want the measure alone to encourage additional test-taking, which may not be necessary).

  • 5 required Regents, and no more than 3 others
  • Which students are included?
  • All students attributed to a school using SED rule for minimum enrollment

whether or not they take a Regents Exam during the year.

  • Students can be in years 1-8 after 9th grade.
  • Students who exceed 8 Regents Exams passed are NOT included in a

grades 9-12 principal’s results.

  • Dropouts are counted until they have reached their 4th year since entering

9th grade, starting with 12-13 school year.

SED Has Been Exploring Additions to the Factors Used to Define “Similar Students”

Criteria used in considering additional factors:

  • Data must be collected Statewide and reported to SED.
  • Empirical evidence must demonstrate that adding the factor will

improve the statistical characteristics of the model

  • Ranked high, medium, low based on magnitude and scope of

statistical impact across grades and subjects.

  • Inclusion must promote Regents’ policy objectives and minimize

unintended consequences

  • Ranked high, medium, low based on importance for face validity

with educators and ranked negative based on SED judgment of potential unintended consequences

Changes in the NYS Report Card

To comply with Commissioner’s Regulations 100.18 and USDE requirements, the New York State Report Card was changed beginning 2011-12 assessment results to report the following additional data:

  • “On track” and “Not on track” student counts for Level 1 and Level 2

performance levels for each accountable group in Elementary/Middle-Level ELA and math.

  • Unweighted combined ELA and math Performance Index for the

Elementary/Middle and Secondary level.

– For a school with both Elementary/Middle and Secondary levels the PI will be combined across both levels.

  • Both 4-Year and 5-Year graduation rate for the total cohort.
  • Student outcomes and post-secondary plans for the graduating

cohort.
