Assessments.
Short/Common Cycled Assessments
What Are They?


Assessments given periodically throughout
the school year to see “where students are”
with regard to the Academic Content
Standards
Assessments that model the content, format,
vocabulary and administration of the Ohio
Achievement Tests and the Ohio
Graduation Test



Focused Collaboration effort that will
provide systemic improvement
Increase Confidence in students learning
of standards.
Build Capacity on using data that is
meaningful during the year.
Most teachers use exams, quizzes, and
assessments to assign grades. The formative
assessment should be the essential learnings
blueprint and viewed before instruction begins.
The results from the formative assessment
should provide the teacher with information on
what and how to teach and re-teach.

To understand how to write higher level
questions for quality assessments.
Lower Level Questions
Lower level, or recall questions, involve
those questions which require the
students to identify basic, literal
concepts.
According to Bloom’s Taxonomy
Level 1 is Remembering
Level 2 is Understanding
Level 3 is Applying
What is the setting of the book, To Kill a
Mockingbird?
A.
B.
C.
D.
a big city in the west
a small town in the south
a ranch in the southwest
a fishing village in the northwest
Higher Level Questions
Higher level, or thinking questions,
involve those questions which require
the students to interpret, evaluate,
critique and analyze information.
According to Bloom’s Taxonomy
Level 4: Analyzing
Level 5: Evaluating
Level 6: Creating
If the setting of the book, To Kill a
Mockingbird had been in the north
instead of in the south, how might that
have changed the plot of the story?
Explain your answer.





are scored as one item and given one point
can be lower level, or higher level
approximately 2/3 of the questions on the OGT
and Achievement Tests are multiple choice

there are not enough points on the multiple
choice for a student to pass, even if they score
100%

Referring to the chart above, the largest
percentage of students are “Lazy/don’t

After reading the selection “A Glimpse into the Past,”
what conclusions can you draw about the author’s
attitude about preserving your personal history? How
does the author feel about preserving your memories in
a time capsule? If the author’s main purpose is to
persuade the reader to create a time capsule, rate
his/her effectiveness on a scale of 1 – 10, with 10 as the
highest. Explain why you gave it this rating.
To introduce a format for short cycle
assessments that has been successful in
improving students’ achievement.
o 2/3 multiple choice
o 4-5 short answer
o 1 extended response
o Reading- always selections
from poetry, non-fiction and
fiction
o 50% higher level

OASIS is a web based data collection and
analysis system.
OASIS creates individual and systemic
accountability.
OASIS provides information and data to
drive decision-making.
Highly effective teachers have learned how to
efficiently monitor the progress of individual
students. This ongoing formative assessment is
crucial in facilitating the appropriate learning rates
for all students.
This skill is one of the most crucial aspects of
highly effective classroom teaching.
Knowing when to re-teach certain students;
knowing how to monitor retention of previous
skills and concepts which have been taught are
major contributors to highly effective learning
rates for students.

The New York Times science pages
recently told the story of 23 heart
surgeons in Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont, who agreed to observe each
other regularly in the operating room
and share their know-how, insights and
approaches.
ArmadilloLeadership.com
In the past two years after their ninemonth project, the death rate among
their patients fell by an astonishing 25
percent. Merely by emphasizing
teamwork and communications instead
of functioning as solitary craftsmen, the
study showed, all the doctors brought
about major changes in their individual
and institutional practices.
ArmadilloLeadership.com
For teachers who, like heart surgeons,
have traditionally worked as isolated
professionals, the experiment holds a
valuable lesson. If the goal of teachers
is to lower the “death rate” of young
minds and to see students thrive, many
educators now empathetically believe
they can do better working together
than by working alone.
