TEST AND ITEM SPECIFICATIONS

Grade 11 Science

Purpose of the Grade 11 (G11) Science Assessment

The purpose of the College and Career Ready (CCR) Science

Content Assessment is to measure Oklahoma students¡¯ level

of proficiency in the life sciences and physical sciences. On this

test, students are required to respond to clusters of items aligned

to the assessable biology and physical science performance

expectations/concepts (standards/disciplinary core ideas)

identified in the 2014 Oklahoma Academic Standards for Science

(OAS-S). A cluster is either a set of three multiple-choice items

linked with a common stimulus or a set of two multiple-choice

items and a technology-enhanced item (TE item/TEI) linked with

a common stimulus.

All CCR Science Content Assessment forms will assess a

sampling of the performance expectations in each of the reporting

categories below. The reporting categories represent the grouping

of the assessed performance expectations within two of the

science domains (physical and life sciences) for high school in

the OAS-S. Note that results for the test will be reported at the

content domain level, not at the level of individual performance

expectations.
