PARCC ELA/Literacy Summative Assessment Reflect Three Common Core Shifts. . .
• Regular practice with complex text and its academic language
• Reading and writing grounded in evidence from text, literary and informational
• Building knowledge through content rich nonfiction
Two standards are always in play — whether items are focused on reading or writing.
• Use of Evidence
• Complex Texts
Students’ Command of Evidence with Complex Texts
is at the Core of Every Part of the Assessment!

ELA
•Evidence-Based Selected Response (EBSR)
• Technology-Enhanced Constructed Response (TECR)
• Prose Constructed Responses (PCR)
Three Innovative Item Types Showcase Students’ Command of Evidence
with Complex Texts

Evidence Based Selected Response Sample Question Grade 6 ELA
Scoring Rationale for the previous question: • Past tests would have given credit for a right Answer
regardless of how a student arrived at the answer, but the PARCC assessment reflects the key shift of requiring close reading by offering credit for Part A only if Part B is correct and vice versa.
Scoring Points:• 2 points are earned when the student correctly chooses
the answer to Part A (A) and the answer to Part B (D).
• There is no opportunity for partial credit on this item.

Technology-Enhanced Constructed Response Sample Question Grade 7
Claims
Earhart and Noonan lived as castaways on Nikumaroro Island.
Earhart and Noonan’s plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean.
People don’t really know where Earhart and Noonan died.
Below are three claims that one could make based on the article “Earhart’s Final Resting Place Believed Found.”
Part AHighlight the claim that is supported by the most relevant and sufficient evidence within “Earhart’s Final Resting Place Believed Found.”
Part BClick on two facts within the article that best provide evidence to support the claim selected in Part A.
Scoring Rationale for previous question:• Past tests would have given credit for a right answer regardless
of how a student arrived at the answer, but the PARCC assessment reflects the key shift of requiring close reading by offering credit for Part B only if Part A is correct.
Scoring Points• 2 points when students correctly answer Part A and identify
two facts or ideas from the article that support the claim (Part B)
• 1 point for correctly answering Part A and identifying one fact or idea from the article that supports the claim (Part B)
• 0 points if Part A is not correctly answered.

Prose Constructed Response Sample Question Grade 10
Draft Rubrics: http://www.parcconline.org/samples/english-language-artsliteracy/grades-6-11-generic-rubrics-draft
• draw students into deeper encounters with texts.
• provide opportunities for students to demonstrate what they know.
• allow for partial credit.
• include purposeful options for student expression of divergent thinking.
• use technology that allows students to construct meaning for machine-scorable items.
Questions Worth Answering…
Grade 3 Sample “Research Simulation Task”
“Today you will research two people who lived long ago. As you read these passages, you will gather information and answer questions. Then you will write an article for your school newspaper to teach your classmates about how there two people made a difference in America.”
• Excerpt 1 is from the book titled Eliza’s Cherry Trees: Japan’s Gift to America and is about a young woman who lived in Washington, D.C., in the 1800s.
• Excerpt 2 is “The Peanut Man” about George Washington Carver.

PARCC Math Summative Assessment Reflect Three Common Core Shifts. . .
1. Focus: The PARCC assessment will focus strongly where the Standards focus.
2. Coherence: Think across grades and link to major topics within grades.
3. Rigor: In major topics, pursue conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency, and application.

PARCC and Retesting
PARCC will allow retest opportunities.States will set their own policies on retakes.
• Beginning summer of 2015• Once per year for grades 3-8 • Up to 3 times per year for each High School EOY assessment
Guidance on Number of Devices Needed
School Type Minimum Recommended
School with 3 tested grades (K-5, 6-8, 9-12)
1 device for every two students in the largest tested grade
1 device per student in the largest tested grade
Schools with 6 tested grades (K-8)
1 device per student in the largest tested grade
1 device per student for the largest two tested grades
Note: NYSED and PARCC have the same recommendations for the number of devices that will be needed.
Device Specifications Minimum vs. Recommended
Minimum Specs…• may not be adequate
beyond 2 years.• are more likely to
experience slower performance.
• apply only to existing school technology inventories.
Recommended Specs…• are expected to satisfy PARCC
requirements until 2018-2019.
• apply to existing inventory and new technology purchases.
Paper and Pencil Format Will Be Available…
• when an IEP requires.
• for schools approved by NYSED.
To Be Prepared and Ready…• Technology and Logistics• Complete/update technology readiness survey/tool
• Determine technology needs
• Analyze current technology curriculum
• Develop testing plan
• Instruction• Implications for Instruction
• Sample/Prototype Problems (few available now, sample tests in Spring 2013)
• Research professional development opportunities for faculty and staff. (PD modules will be developed November 2013-May 2014.)
