Dear Teacher, April 2014 As you might be aware, Florida law now requires that all courses have district-wide assessments in place by the end of the 2014-15 school year. Because the students’ results will be used as part of teacher evaluations, Assessment, Research, and Data Analysis (ARDA) are giving teachers the opportunity to aid in the development of those assessments. Providing copies of your mid- term and/or final exams will give you the chance to have your course content and your test questions included in the district- wide assessments that we develop. In this way you ensure that the assessments that we develop are aligned closely to instruction. Please look through the attached list of courses, organized by subject area. If you teach one or more of the courses listed, we are encouraging you to send us electronic copies of your mid-term and/or final exams. For each exam we need to have the following: a) Copy of the exam (including items and any related passages or illustrations) b) Answer key c) Scoring rubric (if applicable) d) Benchmark measured by each item (if available) e) Source of any copyrighted materials (for example, title and publisher of a copyrighted reading passage or illustration that you use in your exam) To upload exam files, click on Test Upload Form .* You will need to click on the link to upload tests separately for each course you teach. By clicking on the link, you will open a form with instructions that will ask you to do the following. a) select a course, b) attach file(s), c) type in the name of each file you are uploading, and d) identify each file’s contents (items, answer key, benchmarks, etc).

Dear Teacher, April 2014

As you might be aware, Florida law now requires that all courses have district-wide assessments in place by the end of the 2014-15 school year. Because the students’ results will be used as part of teacher evaluations, Assessment, Research, and Data Analysis (ARDA) are giving teachers the opportunity to aid in the development of those assessments. Providing copies of your mid-term and/or final exams will give you the chance to have your course content and your test questions included in the district-wide assessments that we develop. In this way you ensure that the assessments that we develop are aligned closely to instruction.

Please look through the attached list of courses, organized by subject area. If you teach one or more of the courses listed, we are encouraging you to send us electronic copies of your mid-term and/or final exams. For each exam we need to have the following:

a) Copy of the exam (including items and any related passages or illustrations)

b) Answer keyc) Scoring rubric (if applicable)d) Benchmark measured by each item (if available)e) Source of any copyrighted materials (for example, title and publisher

of a copyrighted reading passage or illustration that you use in your exam)

To upload exam files, click on Test Upload Form.* You will need to click on the link to upload tests separately for each course you teach. By clicking on the link, you will open a form with instructions that will ask you to do the following.

a) select a course, b) attach file(s), c) type in the name of each file you are uploading, andd) identify each file’s contents (items, answer key, benchmarks, etc).

You may either upload one file per course that contains all of the information listed above, or separate files for each type of information provided (items, answer key, benchmarks, etc). We prefer documents in Word or Excel format, but PDF files will be accepted if that is all that you have. Note, if your final test is not comprehensive, i.e., covers all the material you taught throughout the year, please also share your mid-term exam and the corresponding materials.

The files you upload will be secure and your specific contribution(s) will be confidential. They will be seen only by test developers in our office.

On the following page is the list of courses for which we are requesting tests at this time.
