Literacy Assessment Framework PURPOSE: Organize common tests used by a school/district to:identify redundant or overlapping tests; find obsolete/unnecessary indicators;discover gaps; and discuss the intended purpose and usefulness of current assessmentsProvide on-going evaluation of a school’s/district’s Comprehensive Tiered Assessment system to ensure it includes:a range of tiered instruments for various audiences/purposes; andassessment across all literacy domains (e.g. concepts of print, oral language, phonemic awareness, phonics/word study, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, writing, etc.).Supports the establishment of universal screening and testing practices for all students. Through this process, teams will also begin to define other tests that may be used for diagnostic or progress monitoring purposes.PREREQUISITE INFORMATION:Principal, teachers, interventionists, and coaches, understand the purpose and use of a screening instrument, progress monitoring tool, benchmark assessments and diagnostic instruments.Staff understands the concept of technical adequacy of tests (reliability/validity).Literacy team completed Assessment Survey or list that includes which tests are used, when, by whom, with whom and for what purpose. The Assessment Survey should contain estimated times for administration & scoring of each measure. DIRECTIONS:One Assessment Framework will be competed for each grade level based upon the results of grade level assessment survey. Start with one grade -level and use the Assessment Survey results to create a grade-level framework.From the Assessment Survey or test list (see prerequisite information above), sort all tests/subtests into their appropriate row(s) and column(s).Decide and record what literacy component the test or subtest directly captures. Determine if this is a test that is used for ALL students (screening/benchmark test) OR for some students (progress monitoring/diagnostic).For screening and benchmark tests, list the test into the column that represents the time(s) of year that test is used and write the test name in the appropriate column(s). For progress monitoring/diagnostic measures, list the test name in the final column "In-depth Diagnostic/Progress Monitoring.”List the test name and the amount of time it takes to administer that test.Review each framework as a team and discuss:Are these assessments fulfilling their purpose? Does the intended receive the results and are the results used for their intended purpose?Are there gaps in the assessment framework such as measures missing for critical literacy components? Are there redundancies in the assessment framework such as duplicate measures of critical literacy components?How much time is spent on testing during each benchmark period?Do we have any tests that are outdated, for which data isn’t used or that are ineffective? Refine your framework:Eliminate redundancies, if possible.Create a plan to:Examine options to fill gapsProvide professional development if tests are underutilized.Be sure to “Save as”: Assessment_Framework_[School/District Name]_ [grade level].Share the Assessment Framework Proposal to grade level teams and other stakeholders to solicit feedback.
