RFP-DAA-2015000238 Revised Attachment 4 11-4-2015.docx

This is a revised attachment to Request for Proposal RFP-DAA-2016000062, specifically an instructional template for test content alignment documentation. The document pertains to educational assessment and standards alignment, requiring respondents to submit a Sample Test Content Alignment Worksheet that evaluates how test items align with established educational standards and learning outcomes. The submission must be provided in Excel format with separate worksheets for each content area assessed, and must include detailed task identification and strength of alignment ratings for individual test items using a four-point scale ranging from weak to strong alignment.

The worksheet template requires bidders to document specific information for each test item, including item type classification (Selected Response, Constructed Response, Extended Constructed Response, or Essay), the standards and concepts students are expected to master, Evidence Outcomes, Depth of Knowledge levels based on Webb's process and criteria, and the applicable grade level. Respondents must also provide scoring rubrics for Constructed Response, Extended Constructed Response, and Essay items. This submission format ensures standardized evaluation of test quality and alignment with state educational standards, allowing the evaluating entity to assess the technical rigor and educational validity of proposed assessments.
