  • “Understanding Performance Assessment: Task Selection and Response Scoring” “Inconsistent and Ineffective Use of D Transitions in Writing”

    Module Three | Assignment Three
    In Chapter 8, you should develop a broad understanding of performance assessment. In this application exercise, the fictitious setting specifies that you are talking with a board member who already knows what performance testing is, so you are being asked to describe two or more features of task-selection andresponse-scoring. Draw on your broad understanding of performance assessment and identify two or more actions teachers should take when dealing with the designation of performance-test tasks and with the evaluation of students’ responses to performance-tests tasks.After you’ve submitted your response, I will post an illustrative response, which is intended to represent an appropriate response that will also help you judge the appropriateness of your own response. Consider the following:
    Please assume that a recently elected member of your local school board, Josiah Jeffries, has asked you to help him learn more about performance assessment because his knowledge of educational measurement is quite limited. He says he has a general idea about what performance testing is, but he knows little about the nuts and bolts linked to the actual implementation of performance assessment. In 300 words or less, prepare a short explanation for Mr. Jeffries regarding task selection for performance testing and the scoring procedures employed for evaluating students’ responses to performance tests. As your explanation addresses these two topics, be sure to mention at least a pair of specific actionable items teachers should do related to each of these two topics

  • “Exploring Relationships between Georgia Milestones Assessment Scores Using Correlation Coefficients”

    Overview
    The superintendent would like to know what relationships exist between different domains of Georgia Milestones Assessment scores. She has provided your principal with the included Excel file, “Milestones_Grade8,” which is a random sample of eighth-grade students from all public middle schools in the school system. The students were chosen randomly in such a way that all 8th grade students had an equal chance of being selected. Since the principal knows you are taking a research course, he has asked you to complete the assignment. In this activity, you are to use Excel to calculate correlation coefficients.
    For # 2, in the chart, make sure you accurately round to the nearest hundredth (two values after the decimal). In Part 3 Question # 1, if you do not use the correct terminology when interpreting correlation coefficients as noted in your readings, HALF CREDIT will be automatically deducted. The main focus of this assignment is to compute and interpret correlation values and not confuse it with statistical significance. Students can find help with correlation in Excel by using Hoonuit (formerly Atomic Learning) found on VSU website and on YouTube. If you find you cannot search for Excel via the Atomic Learning site in our Collaborate module, here is an alternative way to get to the program which might work for you, if needed. The Excel Basics title in Hoonuit has help for the Pearson correlation coefficient

  • “Descriptive Statistics Analysis of Mathematics Scale Scores for Males and Females”

  • Title: “Building Bridges: A Comprehensive School Communications Plan”

    For the final project, you will create a School Communications Plan. You have communicated with various stakeholders throughout the course, and now it’s time to put all of your skills into one document.
    The instructions and a sample are attached. Please make sure you do not plagiarize a prewritten plan. (Turn-It-In is being used for this assignment). Let’s see your bright ideas as a future leader.
