21
Step 1 contains a decision-making framework that
outlines key considerations across four categories
KNOWLEDGE OF
STUDENTS
When making MOSL selections, schools should
consider student strengths and needs.
INTRUCTIONAL
FOCUS
When making MOSL selections, schools should
consider the academic concepts, skills and behaviors
they are seeking to build.
COLLABORATIVE
PROFESSIONAL
LEARNING
When making MOSL selections, schools should
consider the structures in place for collaboration and
goals around collective responsibility.
STRATEGIC
ASSESSMENT
PLAN
When making MOSL selections, schools should
consider how they use assessment to monitor
progress towards school-wide goals and inform
instruction and planning.
22
Network Team Discussion: Together with your Network colleagues,
identify one example of a school that either:
Made a meaningful MOSL selection last year that was aligned to student
needs, instructional priorities and the school’s strategic assessment plan
• What were the implications?
• How did this selection help to develop a culture of collaborative
professional learning or drive improvements in student learning?
OR
Had a “missed opportunity” last year and did not consider student needs,
instructional priorities or the school’s strategic assessment plan when
making MOSL selections.
• What were the implications?
• How might they have chosen differently?

2013 2014
2014 2015
NYC Performance Assessments
were mandated as State and Local
Measures for some grade/subjects.
NYC Performance Assessments are
not mandated for State or Local
Measures.
•
Schools have the flexibility to select assessments that are aligned to their
instructional focus and strategic assessment plan.
•
Schools should also consider how to evaluate their teachers on multiple
measures to offer a more valid, robust picture of teacher performance and provide
teachers with multiple sources of feedback.
•
Schools should also consider that administering baseline and end-of-year NYC
Performance Assessments requires the commitment of operational resources.
•
Principals should discuss the expected State Measures selections with the
Committee to ensure that State and Local Measures are complementary.
26
Network Team Discussion: Together with your Network team
colleagues review the Elementary School, Middle School, and High
School Supplements and consider the following questions:
• Which selections are pre-determined? Where do principals and
School Local Measures Committees have a choice?
• How can we support schools to ensure that teachers are
evaluated on multiple measures to offer a more valid, robust
picture of teacher performance and provide teachers with
multiple sources of student learning data?
27
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to assessment options and processes
2013 2014
2014 2015
The administration of fall baseline
assessments was required.
The administration of fall baseline
assessments is optional.
•
Because baseline assessments can be instructionally valuable, schools may
choose to administer fall baseline assessments even if they choose not use the
scores for Measures of Student Learning (MOSL) purposes.
•
Schools have the flexibility to administer only those baseline assessments that will
be part of their strategic assessment plan to monitor progress towards schoolwide goals and inform instruction and planning.
•
When considering whether or not to administer baseline assessments for MOSL
purposes, schools should also consider the operational resources required and
the implications for growth models.
28
Dear _____________,
My School Local Measures Committee and I have selected the following State and Local Measures for
the Common Branch Kindergarten - 2nd Grade grade/subjects (see below). We already administer the
Running Records – F&P in the fall as part of our strategic assessment plan so the Committee
recommended that we should submit the results of this baseline assessment for MOSL
purposes.
Because they are instructionally valuable, I also plan to have teachers administer the fall baseline
assessments for the NYC Performance Task – Writing Prompt and the NYC Performance Task – Math
but I am still deciding if we should submit them for MOSL purposes. Can you explain the
implications for growth models if we don’t submit these scores?

•
•
2014 2015
Additional NYC Performance
Assessments and 3rd Party
Assessments have been added to
the Advance Assessment List.
Assessments selected for MOSL with an individual target population must align to
the standards of the course in which the assessment will be administered.
Due to State regulations, some assessments are only available as a Local
Measures selection.
Some of the new assessments are only available to schools that used the
assessment in SY 2012-13 and/or SY 2013-14.
Goal-setting is the required growth measurement for some of the new
assessments, due to small sample sizes or a lack of applicable historical
achievement data.
30
Network Team Discussion: Together with your Network team
colleagues review the assessment options on pages 13-19 of the
MOSL Selections Guide and consider the following questions:
• Which assessments are new? Which of these assessments
might be relevant to the schools we support?
• What specific considerations should our schools take into
account when looking at these new assessments?

33
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to target population options and processes
2013 2014
Schools chose from the individual,
grade, or school target populations.
2014 2015
Schools can choose from the
individual, grade, school or linked
target populations.
•
The individual target population can only be assigned to an assessment if the
assessment will be administered in the grade/subject for which it was selected.
•
In some cases, the individual target population is required for the State Measures.
•
The grade, school and linked target populations can only be selected for an
assessment if that assessment is also selected with an individual target
population for another grade/subject.
•
Principals and School Local Measures Committee may either choose to assign a
linked target population to a single assessment or a bundle of assessments.
34
With linked measures, teachers are evaluated based on the
performance of THEIR students taking an assessment in a
different grade/subject.

37
A principal asks you to come in and talk to the School Local
Measures Committee about Linked Measures and how they can be used to
encourage professional collaboration.
With your Network colleagues, reflect on the following questions:
• How would you explain this concept to the School Local Measures
Committee?
• How can Linked Measures be used to encourage professional
collaboration?
• What are the benefits of other target population choices?
• What questions would you encourage the School Local Measures
Committee to consider when making this decision?
38
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to target population options and processes
2013 2014
If the Committee selected the same
Local Measure assessment and
target population as the State
Measure, then the growth of the
lowest performing third of students
was applied.
2014 2015
If the Committee selects the same
Local Measure assessment and
target population as the State
Measure, they can choose from
multiple subgroup options.
•
Committees choose one preferred subgroup option for their school, but can also
customize by grade/subject.
•
Schools should avoid choosing subgroups that represent the majority or all of their
student population.
•
Schools should consider last year’s MOSL assessment data and the evidence of
growth and gaps across student groups when selecting a “subgroup of choice” and
customizing subgroup selections.
39
PASSING THE BATON
Independently review page 32 of the MOSL Selections Guide. Turn to the
person next to you and take turns teaching the concept back to each other:
In 60 seconds or less, describe the selection of subgroups (when the
School Local Measures Committee should make this selection, when it will
apply, what the options are).
40
Network Team Discussion: Together with your Network team
colleagues consider the following questions:
• How will the changes to target population options and
processes impact the selection process in the schools you
support?
• What might schools do differently and what are the
implications?

PRINCIPAL
 Review growth measurement

SCHOOL LOCAL

 Review growth measurement
options for Local Measures
 (If selecting goal-setting with a grade
or school target population for Local
Measures) Determine if you will
recommend that the Committee or
the principal set goals.
44
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to goal setting processes
2013 2014
The principal set goals for any
assessment paired with a grade or
school target population
2014 2015
For Local Measures, the Committee
may recommend that the principal
OR the Committee set goals for any
assessment paired with a grade or
school target population.
•
The School Local Measures Committee will recommend this option to the principal
at the same time they make the recommendations for Local Measures selections
(by September 18).
•
This will require the School Local Measures Committee to reconvene and finalize
goals by November 17.
•
If the School Local Measures Committee is unable to agree on these goals, then
the principal will set the goals and submit them to the superintendent for approval.
45
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to growth measurement options and processes
2013 2014
Schools chose between growth
models or goal-setting for any
assessment
(where the growth measurement was
not pre-determined by the state).
2014 2015
The addition of new assessments
broadens options, but some new
assessments require the use of
goal-setting due to small sample
sizes or a lack of applicable
historical achievement data.
For the following assessments, schools must use goal-setting as the growth
measurement:
•
Language other than English (LOTE) Exams
•
Second Language Proficiency (SLP) Exams
•
Career and Technical Education (CTE) Exams (both NOCTI & Certiport)
•
Arts Commencement Exams
46
Network staff can support schools to understand key
changes to goal setting processes
2013 2014
The goal-setting scoring chart did not
always allow for rigorous goalsetting.
•
•
•
2014 2015
The goal-setting scoring chart has
been changed to allow educators to set
more meaningful and reasonable goals
that support fair and accurate ratings.
New goal-setting scoring chart:
• 85%-100% of students must meet or exceed goals to be rated Highly Effective
• 55%-84% of students must meet or exceed goals to be rated Effective
• 30%-54% of students must meet or exceed goals to be rated Developing
• 0%-29% of students must meet or exceed goals to be rated Ineffective
The new goal-setting chart may complement existing school processes for setting
student goals.
Goal-setting still requires more investment of teacher and principal time than growth
models.
47
Look at your MOSL Guide pages 38-40 and consider the following sample
email.
Dear ______________,
Last year my School Local Measures Committee and I did not consider
goal-setting because we thought that this process would require a lot of
additional time to set student goals at the beginning of the year and record
student results at the end of the year. However, this year we have selected
a LOTE exam, which requires goal-setting. I heard there have been some
changes to the goal-setting process this year. Can you explain the changes
to me? What are the implications of these changes?
