This book was released on 2006 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards Dual Purpose Assessment (AIMS DPA) is a combination of two separate tests. One test is AIMS, which measures how well the student knows the reading, writing, and mathematics content that all Arizona students in the student's grade level are expected to know and be able to do. AIMS DPA includes multiple-choice questions in reading and mathematics and one extended writing response. The other test included in the AIMS DPA is the TerraNova, which compares your performance in reading, language arts, and mathematics to the performance of other students at the fifth grade level nationwide. The TerraNova test questions are all multiple-choice questions. They make up a small portion of the reading and mathematics sections of the AIMS DPA test. Test items were written to measure specifically the Standards, Concepts, and Performance Objectives described in the Arizona Academic Standards. Standards were articulated by grade level for reading and mathematics and approved by the state Board of Education in March 2003. Reading and mathematics items are multiple-choice. There is no multiple-choice questions on the writing test. The Writing Standard was articulated by grade level and approved by the state Board of Education in March 2003. There is an extended writing prompt that students use to actively engage in the writing process. The student's writing is scored using the Six Trait Rubric [TM]. This guide is divided into the three subject areas assessed on AIMS DPA. It gives a short explanation of each testing format, hints for test-taking, sample test questions, and a scoring guide for written responses. It does not teach students what they should know and be able to do to score well on the tests, but it will help them become familiar with the tests. The sections of this guide are: (1) AIMS DPA FAQ; (2) Reading; (3) Writing; (4) Mathematics; (5) Scoring Keys; (6) Six Trait Writing Rubric; (7) Test-Taking Strategies; and (8) a blank page for writing notes.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards High School (AIMS HS) is an assessment program that measures high school students' achievement of the Arizona Academic Standards adopted by the state Board of Education in three subject areas: reading, writing, and mathematics. All students in high school are required to participate in AIMS HS testing. Test items were written to measure specifically the Standards, Concepts , and Performance Objectives described in the Arizona Academic Standards. Standards were articulated by grade level for reading and mathematics and approved by the state Board of Education in March 2003. Reading and mathematics items are multiple-choice. There are no multiple-choice questions on the writing test. Writing was articulated by grade level and approved by the state Board of Education in June 2004. There is an extended writing prompt that students will use to actively engage in the writing process. Students' writing is scored using the Six Trait Rubric [TM]. Each of the Standards is built on a structured framework that spans kindergarten to twelfth grade, representing concepts and skills that the students have been learning since starting school. Within these Standards are the Concepts and Performance Objectives that are specific to each grade level. Although all Standards (reading, writing and mathematics) are assessed each time AIMS is given, different Concepts and Performance Objectives are tested on different forms of the tests. Therefore, students need to be prepared for all Concepts and Performance Objectives in each Standard. This guide is divided into the three subject areas assessed on AIMS HS. It includes a short explanation of each testing format, hints for test taking, sample test questions, and a scoring guide for the written response. It does not teach students what they should know and be able to do to score well on the tests, but it will help them become familiar with the tests. This guide presents sections on: (1) AIMS HS FAQ; (2) Reading; (3) Writing; (4) Mathematics; (5) Scoring Keys; (6) Six Trait Writing Rubric; (7) AIMS HS Mathematics Reference Sheet; (8) Test-Taking Strategies; and (9) a page for writing notes.

Download or read book Instruments of the True Measure written by Laura Da' and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instruments of the True Measure charts the coordinates and intersections of land, history, and culture. Lyrical passages map the parallel lives of ancestral figures and connect dispossessions of the past to lived experiences of the present. Shawnee history informs the collection, and Da’s fascination with uncovering and recovering brings the reader deeper into the narrative of Shawnee homeland. Images of forced removal and frontier violence reveal the wrenching loss and reconfiguration of the Shawnee as a people. The body and history become lands that are measured and plotted with precise instruments. Surveying and geography underpin the collection, but even as Da’ investigates these signifiers of measurement, she pushes the reader to interrogate their function within the stark atrocities of American history. Da’ laments this harsh dichotomy, observing that America’s mathematical point of beginning is located in the heart of her tribe’s homeland: “I do not have the Shawnee words to describe this place; the notation that is available to me is 40°38 ́32.61 ́ ́ N 80°31 ́9.76 ́ ́ W.”
