MUTUALLY AGREED UPON CLARIFICATIONS

1. Cambium Assessments, Inc. (CAI) commits to working with ELPA21 on ODE’s behalf to get technical reports to ODE for posting as early as possible, prior to the October 31st annually date listed within Cambium’s Proposal.

Note: Delivery of the final annual Technical Report is based on when analysis of data not only for OELPA, but also for the ELPA21 Summative and Screener can be completed. This is driven by test administration schedules for all ELPA21 States and when CAI receives information from ELPA21, both of which is beyond CAI’s control.

2. Below is the Sample Transition Matrix that Cambium submitted during Negotiations, to clarify the Transition Plan submitted in Cambium’s proposal. Cambium agrees to work with ODE to review and revise the Transition Matrix, as needed, in the planning meetings.

Team Item/ Material Description Preferred

Format Delivery Date

Psychometrics Technical reports

Past technical reports and electronic copies of any other reports that discuss the validity or reliability of the assessments from previous administrations.

Word/Excel /PDF 30-Jun

Scoring Scoring Information

Rubrics, and all critical documents and materials used in the scoring process for previous administrations as necessary (including training materials)

Word/PDF 30-Jun

Reporting Reports Sample copies of all reports provided to districts and schools from previous administration as necessary PDF 30-Jun

Reporting Reports Historic data for previous administrations for student, school, district and state reports and files securely transferred and stored as necessary (including SDFs)

XML 30-Jun

Operations Manuals/ guides

Sample copies of all help and support guides and manuals for the OELPS and OELPA test administrations. Word/PDF 30-Jun

Operations Test Booklets All paper-pencil test forms PDF/hard copy 30-Jun

Program Team Trainings All training materials for OELPS and OELPA administrations Webinars/PDF/

PowerPoint 30-Jun

3. CAI will discuss reporting modifications to ELPA21 reporting for Ohio, based on the measures available for this testing program and the requirements of the ELPA21 agreement.

4. CAI agrees that Stakeholder Engagement meetings can include parents/caregivers and other community members as requested by ODE. CAI will work with ODE to accommodate necessary resources for each meeting, to include ASL interpreters if needed.

5. Local Scoring & CRS, local scoring component is now required by the OELPS to be completed within the Teacher Assessment Scoring Center (TASC), which is integrated into the Centralized Reporting System (CRS). CAI agrees to provide a demonstration of the TASC system during the contract kickoff meeting, or as requested by ODE. CAI will provide training materials for both ODE and the field for all pieces of CRS including the TASC.

6. Cambium agrees to work with ODE to populate the demo systems with data for both the OELPS and OELPA programs that will be able to be reviewed with the field.

7. CAI agrees to work with ODE to finalize training modules to include information the field will need to access CAI systems and enter information, so they are able to complete testing. The demo systems on the portal will give users the opportunity to enter student information into the system and act as a TA. The districts can simulate the testing environment by using the OELPA practice test. CAI can work with ODE to highlight activities that are available to the field to simulate “real testing” experiences.

8. CAI agrees that student practice tests for OELPA will be accessible to students in “guest” sessions and in proctored sessions. This will continue for future administrations unless ODE requests a change.

9. CAI agrees that the tutorials for the OELPA and OELPS can be offered in English, Spanish, and Arabic. In addition, CAI agrees to work with ODE regarding translations in additional languages.

10. EDU agrees to option one (1) under Family Score Reports:

a. Provide the translated Individual Student Reports (ISRs) through our online Centralized Reporting System

(CRS). Educators can download translated ISRs through the Student Results Generator tool in the CRS. We have included costs for Spanish, Somali, Arabic, Nepali, and Swahili. This cost option would be a one-time cost of $41,281. Additional languages can be added as an additional cost option.

11. At this time EDU does not need the Optional Web-Based Portal.

12. At this time EDU does not need Paper Practice Test Books created for all grade bands in paper, large print, and braille.
