PARCC Overview & Goals“Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for
College & Careers”Coming 2014 – 2015 School YearBased directly on Common Core State
StandardsPARCC’s goal is to return “summative data”
before the end of the year.
3
PARCC Overview & GoalsGoal #1: Create High Quality Assessments
PARCC assessments are designed to measure the “full range of student performance”, and to guide instruction
Goal #2: Build a Pathway to College & Career Readiness for All StudentsStudents not meeting the standards will be
identified, and will receive targeted instruction.
Goal #3: Support Educators in the ClassroomEducators will receive support: professional
development, instructional tools to support implementation, timely student data. 4
PARCC Overview & GoalsGoal 4: Develop 21st Century, Technology
Based AssessmentsAssessments are computer based & engagingLess paperwork for administrationScoring more efficientProduce Timely Reports throughout the year to
inform instruction
5
PARCC Overview & GoalsGoal 5: Advance Accountability At All LevelsPARCC assessments show growth:
School, district, & educator effectivenessComparisons with other state and international
benchmarks

PARCC Design & Sample ItemsSummative Assessments Have Two Parts:Performance Based Assessment (PBA)
Administered after at least 75% of the school year. Early Spring
ELA/Literacy: Writing effectively when analyzing textsMathematics: Reasoning & modeling real world problems
End of Year Assessment (EOY)Administered after approximately 90% of the school year.ELA/Literacy: Reading ComprehensionMath: Further understanding of key concepts & ability to
use math facts.*Both tests will measure critical thinking & problem solving skills
9
PARCC Design & Sample ItemsNon – Summative Assessment Components:Diagnostic Assessment
Optional. Indicator of student knowledge and skills so that instruction, supports, and professional development can be customized.
Mid Year Assessment (MYA)Optional. Contains performance based items and tasks,
with an emphasis on hard to measure standards. (Might become summative component)
Speaking and Listening Assessment (ELA/Literacy)Required, assesses students’ speaking & listening
skills.
10
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELAPARCC will adhere to CCSS shifts:
Text complexity – The standards require close reading and writing about complex texts with academic vocabulary.
Evidence – The standards require reading and writing that are grounded in text evidence.
Building knowledge – The standards require reading and writing across the disciplines of science and social studies.
11
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Items Types (ELA)Evidence Based Selected Response (EBSR)
Technology Enhanced Constructed Response (TECR)
Range of Prose Constructed Responses (PCR)
12
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Items Types (ELA)Evidence Based Selected Response (EBSR)
Combines traditional selected response questions with a second selected response question that asks students to show evidence from the text that supports the answer in the previous question
13
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Items Types (ELA)Technology Enhanced Constructed Response
(TECR)Uses technology to capture student comprehension of
texts in authentic ways that have been difficult to score by machine for large scale assessments (drag & drop, cut & paste, shade text, move items to show relationships).
14
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Items Types (ELA)Range of Prose Constructed Responses
(PCR)These items will be essays that measure students’
understanding of texts through written expression. Language conventions will also be measured. PBA will contain FOUR of these items.
15
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Tasks - Performance Based Component)Literary Narrative Task
Students need to read complex text closely.They will answer questions (EBSR & TECR) & compose
an analytic essay.Sample Problems
Narrative TaskStudents may be asked to write a story, detail a scientific
process, write a historical account of important figures, or to describe an account of events, scenes, or objects, etc.
Sample Problems
16
PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA 3 Tasks (Performance Based Component)The Research Simulation Task
Not traditional assessments. Designed to measure more real-world skills, such as research, synthesis, and writing.
Session 1 - students will read an “anchor text,” answer EBSR & TECR items about the text, & write a short summary of the text.
Session 2, students will read two additional texts or sources & answer more EBSR & TECR items about them. Students will then synthesize their understanding of all three sources by writing an analytical essay.
Sample Research Simulation TaskSample ELA Problems

PARCC Design & Sample Items - ELA
Evidence Based Selected Response (EBSR) Example:1(a) Which statement best describes the central idea of the text?a) Miyax is far from home and in need of help. b) Miyax misses her father and has forgotten the lessons he taught her.c) Miyax is cold and lacks appropriate clothing.d) Miyax is surrounded by a pack of unfriendly wolves.
1(b) Which sentence best helps develop the central idea?a) “Miyax pushed back the hood of her sealskin parka & looked at the
Arctic sun.”b) “Somewhere in this cosmos was Miyax; and the very life in her body, its
spark & warmth, depended upon these wolves for survival.”*c) “The next night the wolf called him from far away and her father went
to him & found a freshly killed caribou.”d) He had ignored her since she first came upon them, two sleeps ago.”
18
Technology Enhanced Constructed Response (TECR)According to the article “The Biography of Amelia Earhart,” which events had the most significant impact on Earhart’s life? From the list, create a summary by dragging the four most significant events and dropping them in chronological order into the table.

1 Earhart becomes the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean by herself.
2 Earhart attends a finishing school in Philadelphia.
3 Earhart purchases her first plane.
4 Earhart works as a nurse’s aide in Canada.
5 Earhart attends an air show, where a stunt pilot flies close to her.
6 Earhart sets off on a flight around the world.
7 Earhart places third at the Cleveland Women’s Air Derby.

PARCC will adhere to CCSS Shifts:Focus: Key content, skills, and practices at
each grade levelCoherence: Contents in the standards builds
across grades, and major topics are linked within grades.
Rigor: In major topics, the standards highlight conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency, and application
PARCC Design & Sample Items - Math
20
PARCC Design & Sample Items - MathMath problems may include simulations that call for
improving a model, responding to game-like environments, or constructing diagrams or other visual models.
Math items will avoid the limitations of traditional multiple-choice items with formats such as drag and drop, selected response with multiple correct answers, and multi-step tasks.
Items will capture more complex student responses with the use of drawing tools and other technology.
Items will demonstrate rigor through multi-step tasks.Items may include tasks that require written
explanations of mathematical reasoning.Sample Math ProblemsCalculator Policy (2012) 21
