Introduction |
|
The Rhode Island Alternate Assessment (RIAA) is for the
small number of students who cannot participate in
large-scale assessments even with accommodations. The RIAA
is based on Alternate Assessment Grade Span Expectations (AAGSEs) in
reading, mathematics, science, and writing that are an
extension of the NECAP Grade Level Expectations (GLEs).
The RIAA assesses content knowledge through a series of
Structured Performance Tasks. These tasks also incorporate
and promote enhanced capacities and integrated life
opportunities for students with moderate, severe, and
profound disabilities. Teachers collect data and student
work to assess the student's progress, accuracy, and
independence. The collected evidence provides documentation
to ensure that there is a connection between the academic
content contained the AAGSEs and the classroom instruction
the student receives.

Sample Datafolio: Jacoba |
|
Disclaimer: Jacoba is a sample
datafolio that was created for use in RIAA professional development sessions to
provide teachers with one complete example of student work
required by the RIAA. It was developed to teach educators
elements of the rubric which have an impact on student
scores. Teachers were asked to review each entry, identify
good examples and errors and make corrections to the errors.
For these reasons, there are intentional errors in the
sample datafolio. |
