Transition Regents • Fewer Multiple Choice questions, but weighting of sections is the same as with old exam, so individual questions carry more weight. • Multiple choice questions will be a mix of stimulus-based and non-stimulus-based. • See Test Specification Grid • Examination Schedule: First administration on June 5, 2018 • Conversion Chart no later than June 22

Transition Regents Q: When will scoring materials for the Global Transition Exam be available? Will everyone have the option to score early in June or will some have to wait until traditional Regents week? A: Scoring materials will be released at 11: 00 on June 5. If you are not a district that’s required to submit materials early for range setting, there is a choice - you can start scoring early or wait until the rating week (3 rd week of June) when the conversion chart will be released.

Weighting of Framework Exam Item Types Number of Questions Approximate Weighting Stimulus-Based Multiple-Choice Questions 28 54% Short-Answer Constructed. Response Questions 2 sets 17% Enduring Issues Essay 1 29%

Framework Regents Q: Will the state be choosing a different 10% of the schools to score early for the Framework test? Will Pearson be providing the scoring materials for this test? A: SED has no control of that. That’s the research group. It’s supposed to be a random sample. Pearson is the contractor for the research group for standards setting and score collecting.

Framework Regents Q: Teachers are struggling with the concept of reliability in Part 2. Will the state provide suggestions as to how to train people on reliability? A: Reliability information is in the Understanding the CRQ packet. That packet still can’t be posted, but it has information about what reliability is about and how to deal with it. Think of it as a research question. When looking for documents and reliable evidence, there is a purpose in mind. You’re trying to answer a question. In the exam, you’ll be provided with a purpose. Example: Boston Massacre engraving for Paul Revere. Three types of answers: reliable, somewhat reliable, and unreliable. Students need to look at the last part of the question and see what the purpose is. For one point, both criteria have to be met.

Framework Regents Constructed Response Questions (CRQs) • Revised CRQ materials – on SS page – Understanding the CRQ – Revised Prototypes (January 2018) – Rubrics for Revised Prototypes • 2 sets, 2 documents in each set • Target both content and skills • Section is worth a total of 9 points • Same focus on every form, every year • Not essays short answers 3 -5 lines

Framework Regents CRQs 3 questions in each set • Document 1 question on historical or geographic context (So what? ) • Document 2 question on sourcing and reliability for a certain purpose • Both Documents question on relationship between 2 documents – Causation: Cause-Effect (4 points total) – Turning Point OR Comparison: Similarities and Differences (5 points total)

Framework Regents CRQs Reliability: The usefulness of a source for a given purpose • No source is necessarily either reliable or unreliable for every purpose. • The reliability of evidence in a historical source can depend on what you want to use it for. • A historical source may be reliable in some parts and unreliable in others. – Source: Chris Hinton. What is Evidence?

Framework Regents Q: When will the materials from the March state conference be publicly available electronically? A: Donna does not know. They can be shared in hard copy. You may request hard copies from Donna. The CRQ and DBQ stuff may have some changes. Donna’s office does not have permission to post.

Framework Regents Q: Will more materials/samples be available in general? A: There was an overview Framework Power Point on the OSA Social Studies page. It should also be on Engage NY. That document has a content specification grid and overview information. It’s a PPT that could be used with other people. We’ll continue to post items as available. If you have assessment-related questions, please direct them to OSA, not curriculum.

Helpful Terms for the Framework Regents

New Global Regents Exams Both Transition and New Regents Exams will be available from June 2019 to June 2020. Districts need to decide: Which test? For which students? Advice: Decide what you’re going to teach and then test that curriculum. Which test does your course end in?

Test Decision To help us best support you and your students, please let us know what your district has decided. https: //drive. google. com/open? id=1 Nok 71 psp p. VSQrb. We-j. SVd. FLOClhujey. CWDy. Jutzdh. Mo

US History Regents Q: Will we be sticking to the timeline? A: As far as we know, the first US Framework will be June 2020. They’re still working on different materials, but there’s not much more Donna can release beyond that. Q: Will the structure of the US be similar to the global? A: MC will be the same. Part 2 and Part 3 will use the same skills, but may not take the same form. If you’re teaching the practices, kids should be OK.

US History Regents Q: Will there be an enduring issues essay or something else? When will we know what that “something else” is? A: Still under development. Will be shared as soon as it can be. Q: Will districts get to choose which US exam to give? A: At this point in time, there will be a oneyear overlap. There will be no “transition” exam for US.
