MAP 2020-21 Blueprint and Best Practices | 10 Min. webinar organized by EdShorts - By Lumos Learning
00:0-1 | Good afternoon , everyone . Welcome to today's end short | |
00:03 | segment on Missouri Assessment Program . Today we will discuss | |
00:07 | the available updates about 2021 Missouri state assessments for students | |
00:12 | . We will cover the assessment overview . What's new | |
00:15 | item types , Testing times and other details . Let's | |
00:19 | begin . The Missouri grade level assessment is a yearly | |
00:27 | standards based test that measures specific skills defined for each | |
00:30 | grade all students in grades three through eight in public | |
00:34 | and charter schools . Take the assessments for English language | |
00:37 | Arts , or L A In grades three through eight | |
00:41 | , mathematics in grades three through eight . Science in | |
00:44 | grades five and eight . Students and Missouri's public schools | |
00:48 | will be given state assessments next spring , but results | |
00:52 | from those tests won't be used for state and federal | |
00:54 | accountability measures . Few changes have been made in the | |
01:01 | map tests for the 2020 2021 school year . The | |
01:05 | use of a calculator is now allowed on all sessions | |
01:08 | of grades six through eight . Mathematics You see listing | |
01:12 | items will now be offered as an accommodation on both | |
01:15 | close captioning and video of the passage being translated in | |
01:19 | American Sign Language or S L for the O . | |
01:23 | C . Assessments districts will receive a percent correct report | |
01:27 | within five business days of the clothes of their content | |
01:30 | . Window E directs name has been updated to the | |
01:34 | portal . This is a naming change only and does | |
01:37 | not affect access or functionality . The English language Arts | |
01:44 | Assessments consists of three sessions in grades 356 and 74 | |
01:51 | sessions in grades four and eight at grades four and | |
01:55 | eight . The first session contains passage based items , | |
01:58 | including a passage based writing . Prompt . All sessions | |
02:02 | contain selected response and technology enhanced items . The mathematics | |
02:07 | assessments consists of three sessions . The 1st and 2nd | |
02:12 | sessions contain selected response items and technology enhanced items . | |
02:18 | The third session contains a performance event . Great level | |
02:23 | assessments may contain selected response or GSR items . Evidence | |
02:28 | based selected response , E B . S r constructed | |
02:32 | response , CR writing tasks , W T performance events | |
02:37 | , P E and or technology enhanced T e items | |
02:41 | . For example , Dragon Drop drop down menu matching | |
02:45 | select answers , Hot spot , et cetera . The | |
02:52 | testing window for the Spring Administration of the test starts | |
02:55 | from April 5th 2021 ends on May 28th . 2021 | |
03:01 | paper slash pencil edition of the test is available for | |
03:04 | students with an I E P that says the student | |
03:07 | should take the paper based assessment . Students who are | |
03:11 | testing out of district homebound students who cannot come to | |
03:15 | school to test for e l translation when the translator | |
03:19 | needs to translate prior to assessing the student . Due | |
03:22 | to technical language , the Missouri State student assessments do | |
03:29 | not have time limits . The Department of Education of | |
03:33 | Missouri has , however , provided estimated times required for | |
03:37 | students to complete each component of the grade level . | |
03:39 | Assessment schools can plan for flexibility in their schedules to | |
03:44 | accommodate students . That may take more time than noted | |
03:49 | . These times do not include time needed to start | |
03:52 | Computers log in students to go through directions , et | |
03:56 | cetera at the test level . And overall scale score | |
04:03 | that is based on student performance on the entire test | |
04:06 | is reported . In addition , an associated level of | |
04:10 | performance is reported . These scores indicate in varying ways | |
04:14 | , a student's achievement in l . A . Mathematics | |
04:17 | or science test level scores are reported at four levels | |
04:22 | . The state , the school district , the school | |
04:25 | and the student scale scores a scale score , indicating | |
04:30 | a students total performance is determined for L . A | |
04:33 | mathematics and science on the map . The overall scale | |
04:37 | score for a content area quantifies the achievement being measured | |
04:41 | by the test in a given content area . In | |
04:44 | other words , the scale score represents the students degree | |
04:47 | of performance , where higher scale scores indicate higher performance | |
04:52 | levels on the test and lower scale scores indicate lower | |
04:56 | performance levels . Performance levels . A student's performance on | |
05:00 | the L A mathematics or science map , is reported | |
05:04 | in one of four performance levels below basic , basic | |
05:09 | , proficient or advanced . The cut scores reflect the | |
05:14 | expectations of Missouri educators and citizens regarding what Missouri students | |
05:19 | should know and be able to do in l . | |
05:21 | A . Mathematics and science . The map performance levels | |
05:28 | reflect the performance standards . A student who performs at | |
05:32 | the below basic level demonstrates minimal command of the grade | |
05:36 | level expectations . A student who performs at the basic | |
05:40 | level demonstrates partial command of the grade level expectations . | |
05:45 | A student who performs at the proficient level demonstrates proficiency | |
05:50 | of the grade level expectations . A student who performs | |
05:54 | at the advanced level demonstrates advanced proficiency of the grade | |
05:58 | level expectations . There are a number of resources available | |
06:05 | for L E . A s to use to prepare | |
06:07 | students for the map grade level Assessments , online tools | |
06:12 | training O T T S oh , TTS . Give | |
06:15 | users the ability to use the tools available in the | |
06:18 | insight testing platform on a variety of item types . | |
06:22 | Using the O . T . T s will allow | |
06:24 | users to become comfortable with using the built in system | |
06:27 | tools . Prior to this affirmative assessment , the O | |
06:31 | . T . T s are accessible at any time | |
06:34 | with no limits on usage . However , they are | |
06:37 | only accessible via Google chrome test tutorials . Test tutorials | |
06:43 | allow users to watch recorded videos that demonstrate the features | |
06:47 | of insight and the tools used for the operational assessments | |
06:51 | . Test tutorials are available for all subjects and are | |
06:55 | divided by content into two categories . General testing topics | |
07:00 | include tutorials on topics such as testing basics , using | |
07:04 | the help feature and finishing the test . Advanced tools | |
07:07 | show grades and include tutorials on topics such as highlighting | |
07:12 | using a ruler graphing and more practice form . The | |
07:16 | practice form mirrors the operational assessment and gives users the | |
07:20 | ability to see the types of items that will be | |
07:23 | on the assessment and , if taking the practice test | |
07:26 | online , become comfortable with answering items within the Insight | |
07:31 | testing platform . A few commercially available programs by vendors | |
07:35 | also help prepare students for the assessments with rigorous map | |
07:39 | test practice and targeted remediation for their skill gaps . | |
07:43 | With these readily available test practice resources for Missouri assessments | |
07:48 | that mirror blueprints , students become familiar with the testing | |
07:52 | environment , questions items and also improve their skills with | |
07:56 | an individualized practice plan . These test mimicking items can | |
08:01 | also be used as bell ringers in the classroom during | |
08:03 | the course of the academic year to improve student performance | |
08:09 | . We hope this was helpful . It is now | |
08:11 | time for Q and A sections . Feel free to | |
08:13 | share your questions in the Commons . Thank you for | |
08:16 | joining us today in our and short session on 2021 | |
08:19 | map tests . We'll return soon with more updates . |

OVERVIEW:
MAP 2020-21 Blueprint and Best Practices | 10 Min. webinar organized by EdShorts is a free educational video by Lumos Learning.It helps students in grades 8 practice the following standards 8.SP.1,8.SP.2,8.SP.3.
This page not only allows students and teachers view MAP 2020-21 Blueprint and Best Practices | 10 Min. webinar organized by EdShorts but also find engaging Sample Questions, Apps, Pins, Worksheets, Books related to the following topics.
1. 8.SP.1 : Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association..
2. 8.SP.2 : Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line..
3. 8.SP.3 : Use the equation of a linear model to solve problems in the context of bivariate measurement data, interpreting the slope and intercept. For example, in a linear model for a biology experiment, interpret a slope of 1.5 cm/hr as meaning that an additional hour of sunlight each day is associated with an additional 1.5 cm in mature plant height..
