8 Example s History and Social Science Example s The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (ESE) contracted with WestEd to collect assessments appropriate for use as District-Determined (DDMs). WestEd chose these assessments as examples because the assessments were aligned with critical content, as identified by the Core Course Objectives (CCOs), and were reviewed by WestEd to ensure overall quality. The following one page summaries cover a wide range of assessments including commercial, non-commercial, traditional, and nontraditional assessments. Districts can use this resource to choose DDMs to implement with or without modifications or as models for locally-developed measures. This list is not exhaustive, and Districts may use other assessments for use as District-Determined measures. What is included in each one page summary? name and subject, grade, or course Electronic link with additional information about the assessment Brief description of the assessment and the content it is intended to assess Source: publicly available (non-secure or open source) or must be purchased from a commercial developer Approach: assessment can be implemented without modifications (buy), with modifications (borrow), or can serve as model for a locally developed measure (build) Design: designed to measure growth or requires modifications Type of assessment: traditional end-of-grade or end-of-course test, non-traditional measure such as a performance task or portfolio rubric, screening tool, diagnostic measure, placement exam, classroom assessment, or certification exam Type of assessment items: selected response, constructed response, performance task, or portfolio Mode of administration: paper/pencil or computer supported method: machine scored or hand scored 8
