Key to assessment terms The SEPUP assessment system uses analysis questions (AQ) in the student book activities, short answer or brief constructed response (BCR) to prompts in the student book activities, and item bank test questions in the Teacher’s Guide (TG), most of which are selected-response (SR) type. All SEPUP lessons feature analysis questions designed to assess student mastery of concepts. In addition, the SEPUP programs contain additional embedded assessment tools. The following key can be used to interpret how the program works for the following citation: IALS 75 AQ4 ET; IB E-2, 3, 5, 6-8
IALS 75 AQ4 ET; IB E-2, 3, 5, 6-8
For more information, consult the Teacher’s Guides.
IB = Test item bank questions, this citation means questions 2, 3, 5, and 6-8 from SALI item bank E measure student performance
UC, AD, ET, etc. represent SEPUP assessment variables (UC = Understanding concepts; AD = analyzing data; ET = Using evidence and tradeoffs; DI = Designing and conducting investigations; GI = Group interactions; CM = Communication scientific information). The above citation means that analysis question 4 of the activity can be used to measure student performance on the ET variable, and assessment item bank E, questions 2, 3, 5, 6-8 can also be used for this purpose.
