There is alarming historical data about writing achievement in our state:
In 2007, the average scale score for eighth-grade students in North Carolina was 153.
This was lower than their average score in 2002 (157) and was not significantly different from their average score in 1998 (150).¹
![Page 18: Next Generation Of Standards, Assessments, And Accountability](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062613/5454b752af795946778b5a79/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Writing is Hard.
Premises:
Writing is Important.
North Carolina must Improve.

Change the current approach to writing assessment. To elevate the importance of writing throughout the curriculum, the current 4th, 7th, and 10th grade writing assessments are to be replaced with a K-12 writing assessment system that includes authentic and on demand writing assignments, appropriate to each grade level and backmapped from the graduation project. The DPI is to provide rubrics, aligned with the writing rubric used for the graduation project, for LEAs to use in assessing these K-12 writing assignments…….

Your local newspaper is sponsoring a contest titled “Making a Difference.” Students have been encouraged to write an essay on how they can “make a difference” by improving their school or local community. The winning essay will be published in the education section of the newspaper.
Write an essay for the newspaper editor in which you propose a solution to make your school or community a better place.

Content-Specific Writing Assignments
All teachers in a building must teach and reinforce excellence in writing and take ownership for student writing outcomes.
![Page 23: Next Generation Of Standards, Assessments, And Accountability](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062613/5454b752af795946778b5a79/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Continual Practice and Feedback
Students must write and receive feedback on their writing throughout the year to improve significantly.
![Page 24: Next Generation Of Standards, Assessments, And Accountability](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062613/5454b752af795946778b5a79/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Writing instruction and practice is more meaningful and likely to develop knowledge and skills in students if they are engaged in authentic writing tasks about subjects that matter to them.
Developing Passions and Interest
![Page 25: Next Generation Of Standards, Assessments, And Accountability](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062613/5454b752af795946778b5a79/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

In the future, the writing system will be a K-12 writing system as
opposed to 4,7,10.

Trends and Lessons Learned
Most important positive trend in the feedback:
+Many in the field support a shift from a single, on-demand assessment to a year-long instruction and assessment system.
