Standards Benchmarks |
| Seminar Objectives | The learners will:
Determine what the 'power standards' are for their grade and subject level. Analyze what types of questions New York State has asked at those standards. Create benchmarks using information about the difficulty of released questions from the New York State Education Department. Share benchmarks and develop a plan to use them for the upcoming school year. |
| Assessment of Learning | Participants will be guided throughout the process of building benchmarks as CABOCES has done in the past. This time looking at the item difficulty for certain questions when we build the benchmarks.
Participants will leave with a finished product that they can use and/or share for the upcoming school year. |
