Performance-Based Assessment (PBA) will assess
knowledge of material from first three quarters of the
year. Following the PARCC model, the PBA will present a
combination of discret items and tasks linked to stimuli
that engage significant content aligned to the model
curriculum. The sequence of items associated with the
stimulus draws the student into deeper analysis and
interpretation than might ordinarily be possible in a
single item.
End-of-Year Assessment (EOY) administered after
approx. 90% of the school year. All items will be
scored by the computer.


The Performance-Based Assessment (PBA) will
assess the student’s knowledge of material from
approximately the first three quarters of the
course, as specified in this document.
The assessment will consist of approximately 812 items worth 20 points overall.
It will require students to engage with course
content at a significant cognitive depth and a
meaningful level of analysis.
Following the PARCC model, the PBA will present
a combination of discrete items and tasks, or
sets of items linked to stimuli that engage
significant content aligned to the model
curriculum.



The End-of-Year Examination will cover the
entire content of the course.
It will be administered as close as possible to
the end of the course (after approximately
90% of the course has been completed).
All EOY assessment items will be scored by
computer, making possible a very quick
return of scores.

Multiple Choice- 4 answer options
Short Answer
Graphic Response
Simulation
Test Items- Hand Scored
• Short (SCR) and Extended Constructed
Response (ECR)- A question or set of
questions that require a detailed written
response. Responses are scored using a
rubric.
Test Items- Computer Scored
A Multiple-choice item consists of the
following:
1. a brief statement that orients the
student to the context of the question
(optional).
2.
3.
4.
a stimulus (document, data table, graphic,
etc.) on which the question is based
(optional).
a question.
four answer options.
A Short-answer item consists of the
following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
a brief statement that orients the student to
the context of the question (optional).
a stimulus (document, data table, graphic,
etc.) to which the question refers (optional).
a question or prompt.
a response area. The student types a
response to answer the question.
A Graphic-response item consists of the
following:
1. a brief statement that orients the student to
the context of the question (optional).
2.
3.
4.
a stimulus (document, data table, graphic, etc.) to
which the question refers (optional).
a question or prompt.
a graphic-response interface on which the student
manipulates objects using a computer mouse to
create a response to the question. The response
interface may be a map, a chart or graph, a picture
or a diagram on which the student must position
objects correctly.
Sample GRAPHIC RESPONSE ITEM :
Grade 5 Science – Delaware test
Test Items- Computer Scored
A Simulation

an interactive animated graphic interface that
simulates an investigative experiment or physical
situation.

Information is displayed in the form of dynamic
maps or illustrations, statistical tables, or charts
and graphs.

Data inputs can be adjusted by the student to
reflect changes in the experimental or situational
inputs, and the graphics adjust themselves to
account for the new information.

Simulations are accompanied by more than one
of the other item types.

The simulation functions as an interactive
stimulus.

A Short Constructed Response item (SCR)
consists of the following:
1. a brief statement that orients the student to
the context of the questions (optional).
2.
3.
one or more stimuli (documents, graphics, data
displays, etc.) to which the questions refer
(optional).
a question or set of questions that require a
detailed written response or responses. The
responses are scored according to a rubric or set of
rubrics that address multiple dimensions in the
student work.
An Extended Constructed Response item (ECR) contains
the same components as the SCR but requires a more
elaborated response

Cognitive demands
◦ Describe the cognitive expectations
associated with a learning task, the thinking
that goes along with the doing
◦ Are an integral part of teaching and
learning science
◦ Are differentiated from one another by the
way knowledge is used rather than by the
degree of rigor associated with a particular
demand; they are not hierarchical
◦ Are interdependent and in effective science
instruction, seldom appear in isolation
Requires students to
• Solve science-based engineering or technological
problems
• Within given scientific constraints
• Propose and critique solutions
• Analyze and interpret engineering and
technological problems
• Anticipate effects of engineering or
technological design
• Consider consequences and alternatives
• Integrate and synthesize scientific information
Requires students to use scientific inquiry to
• Ask questions
• Plan and conduct investigations
• Gather and organize data
• Think critically and logically about relationships
between evidence and explanations
• Construct and analyze alternative explanations
• Communicate scientific arguments
Requires students to
• Use subject-specific knowledge to interpret
and explain events, phenomena, and concepts
using grade-appropriate scientific terminology
and technical and mathematical knowledge
• Communicate with clarity, focus, and
organization using investigative scenarios,
real-world data, and valid scientific
information
Requires students to
• Provide accurate statements about valid
scientific facts, concepts, and relationships
• Provide rote responses
• Perform routine mathematical tasks
