The Purpose of Test Blueprints
? Define the parameters of an assessment before you begin the creation process.
? Review a locally- or vendor-developed assessment for alignment to learning expectations, instruction, and cognitive complexity.
? Confirm in advance the information and knowledge you are planning to assess, which can guide instructional activities.
? Share blueprints with students to help make learning targets clear.
A Blueprint is a TOOL to ensure:
alignment of assessment to standards - content - depth of knowledge
alignment of assessment to instruction
adequate "stretch" in assessment
