New WA State Standardized Test Information

Embedded Scribd iPaper - Requires Javascript and Flash Player
M
any of you may have heard that the WASL test has been replaced with another assessment. Beginning in spring 2010, a new state educational assessment called the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) will be offered to students in grades 3-8. High school students will be given an assessment called the High School Proficiency Exam (HSPE). By 2012, the MPS will be administered entirely online for students in grades 6-8. Until then, each year an increasing percentage of students will take the MPS online, with the remaining students using paper and pencil. About 25 percent of the students in grades 6-8 will test online in the first year. If you are interested in viewing a sample online test, the OSPI (Office of Superintendant of Public Instruction) has made available various online state testing demos. The demos offer educators, families and students an opportunity to see what the Washington online tests might look like. The items in the demo, however, are only examples of online test questions and are not specific to the Washington MSP. Please find below the information sent directly to us from OSPI regarding these demos:
Online Testing Demos Now Available
OSPI is now offering online state testing demos as the state begins its transition to computerized testing in spring 2010. The demos are available at www.WAtesting.com/online. We encourage you to pass on this news to all district personnel as well as your families and students, especially those in grades 6-8. Beginning in spring 2010, the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) will be offered online in grades 6-8 in reading and math. About 25 percent of the students in grades 6-8 with test online in the first year (see online rollout schedule). The demos offer educators, families and students an opportunity to see what the Washington online tests might look like. The items in the demo, however, are examples of online test questions and not specific to Washington. Computerized Assessments and Learning (CAL), the state’s online testing provider, has also developed student demos that demonstrate how the software is used for testing. Only non-audio demos are available at this time. The student demos are designed to provide an overall introduction to the online testing software for both students and educators who administer state tests.
