Assessment Plan
a. Improving item Reliability-
Reliability is concerned with the consistency or dependability of a question, and is
analogous to the repeated use of a scale. To improve item reliability, the teacher will need
to test-retest reliability by administering the question multiple times. Also, the teacher
will need to include multiple choice questions that measure higher, more complex levels
of learning, and include questions with a range of difficulty with most questions in the
middle range. The students will be assessed on the item again during quarterly exams,
unit assessments, and benchmark. Collecting data over a period of time will ensure
students understanding of the content and reliability. If the students receives radically
different scores the second time, the test would have low reliability.
c. Differentiation of instruction
Differentiated instruction relies on understanding the diversity of students, while
accessing and analyzing data to create a successful learning environment. The teacher can
create and administer assessments that will help to identify student’s strengths and
weaknesses. In order to ensure differentiated instruction, the teacher will need to use the
data from assessments to determine three key indicators: student readiness, learning
profile, and student interests. Using student data to identify these three areas for each
student will result in impactful instructional and optimal student growth.
levels: the assessment design level, the assessment experience level, and the assessment
question. The assessment design should be guided by a content blueprint, which is a
document that clearly articulates the content that will be included in the assessment and
the cognitive rigor of that content.

In order to improve student learning, the teachers will need to develop useful
assessments, provide corrective instruction, demonstrate exemplary writing and give
students another chance to demonstrate mastery of a given learning objective.

k. Improving item Reliability
Reliability is concerned with the consistency or dependability of a question, and is
analogous to the repeated use of a scale. To improve reliability for these questions, the
teacher will need to create a rubric that specifies what knowledge, skills, and abilities that
are to be assessed. The teacher will need to make sure all concepts are taught before
Stage 1 FRIT 7236
administering questions. Also, the teacher will need to ensure that students understand
how to present their ideas with accurate supporting information. This can be achieved by
integrating higher order thinking task in everyday lessons.
m. Differentiation of instruction
Differentiated instruction relies on understanding the diversity of students, while
accessing and analyzing data to create a successful learning environment. For
differentiation, the teacher will need to make sure important details of the items are in
bold or italicized. The teacher can also use data previous assessments to determine three
key indicators: student readiness, learning profile, and student interests. Using data will
help the teacher develop higher order thinking questions appropriate for each learning
level and style.

p. Improving item Reliability
Reliability refers to the consistency and repeatability of an assessment that provides a
representation of what students know, understand, and are able to do. To improve
reliability, the teacher must use an observational measure such as checklist or rubrics to
obtain information about what a student is able to do. Using these measure tools provide
systematic recording of observations, integrate self-assessment, give samples of criteria
for students prior to collecting and evaluating data on their work, and record the
development of specific skills, strategies, attitudes and behaviors necessary for
demonstrating learning. Reliability can also be improved by lengthening the assessment
and using multiple sources of evidence.
r. Differentiation of Instruction
Differentiated instruction relies on understanding the diversity of students, while
accessing and analyzing data to create a successful learning environment. For
differentiation, the teacher will need to make sure important details of the items are in
bold or italicized. Also, the teacher will need to use questions that address all learning
styles and abilities. No matter what level the student is on, he or she should have some
idea of how to complete the performance task. The teacher can also use data from
previous assessments to determine three key indicators: student readiness, learning
profile, and student interests.
To improve student learning, the teacher will need to give students timely feedback on
what they need to improve on. The teacher will also need to develop useful assessments
prior to using items, provide corrective instruction, demonstrate exemplary writing and
give students another chance to demonstrate mastery of a given learning objective.
