Erie-Catt Teacher Center Coursework: Math Module Assessment Design 1
November 9, 2015-December 7, 2015
Instructor contact: jkibler@eastauroraschools.org
November 9th: All Participants meet for our initial meeting. Math Module assessment question
website resources are introduced. Teachers meet with their grade level group to discuss
assessment needs. Which assessment tools would be helpful to gather data for your instruction
and/or as assessment of learning?

The grade level group determines who will focus on which assessments (or will you meet and work
as a group/pair). The grade level determines who will peer-review the assessment if it is
completed by one person. The grade level marks their assessments on the grade level chart and
submits the chart to the instructor.
Goal of course: During Math Module Assessment Design 1, teachers will create assessments for
two math modules for classroom use at their grade level. Each assessment will have an
accompanying chart listing each question number and the standard that is assessed.
Course Structure: Today’s meeting, individual work/partner assessment work, peer reviewer to
consult, peer reviewer to review work, submit work to the instructor, complete a course survey
Course Length: 15 hour course includes today’s meeting, your assessment planning (identifying
assessment needs, determining length of assessment, determining question types (multiple choice,
extended response/application), creating assessments, peer reviewing of assessments, making any
updates after peer review, and submitting work
November 9th-November 30th: Teachers work with their grade level group to determine
assessment needs, select assessments, determine question types, identify standards and
questions, and create assessments. Teachers utilize online and print resources.
By November 30th: teachers complete their assessments and share them with their peer reviewer.
(Online sharing or other method mutually agreed upon by teachers) Peer reviewers attach post-it
notes on any pages where they would suggest changes.
By December 4th: peer reviewers return papers to the original writer. Writers make any
adjustments.
By December 7th: teachers e-mail the completed assessments to the instructor or send hard
copies.
By December 7th: teachers fill out a course survey and let the instructor know that it has been
completed. (ECTC homepage---Forms---Fall Survey password is always ectc) You will then receive
a certificate from the Teacher Center for course completion. This link is also on the course
webpage.
New: Your certificate will be mailed to you from ECTC. Each participant will need to submit the
certificate to their school district.

Resources and tasks for today:
Participants determine which assessments will be created and fill out the chart listing who will be
responsible for each assessment. Exchange contact information with your peer reviewer and
determine when you’d like to meet/how you’d like to exchange completed papers.
Finally: Make sure you have signed in and visited the Prize table!
Reminder: Participants who teach in the East Aurora School District must submit a timesheet to
the instructor (with coursework) by December 7th. This timesheet will be forwarded to the
curriculum office.
