There is one performance task per content area on the summative assessment.  \nG3 Math CAT Session  \nG3 Math Performance Task  \nWhat is a CAT?  \nWhat is CAT?  \nWhat is a  \nCAT?  \nIn the adaptive portion of the Guam District-Wide Summative, the questions (or items) are chosen for each student so that the test is neither too hard nor too easy.  \nProvides a unique and effective way to test what a student has learned.  \nADAPTIVE is what makes the CAT different for other traditional tests by making the test unique for every student. The CAT automatically adjusts to fit the ability.  \nItems might include audio, pop-up glossaries, interactive test questions.  \nHow will it work for the student?  \nTest starts  \nThe test starts with an item from a pre-determined difficulty level. It may be based on average difficulty for the grade, or it may be based on information known about the student’s ability level from previous tests.  \nQuestion Selection  \nThe student receives questions based on his or her response to the previous questions. The computer program quickly selects a new question after reviewing how well the student performed on all the previous questions. Based on the responses, the programselects a question that fits the test blueprint and gives the best information about what the student knows. This is how a CAT can customize each test so it is an accurate measure of any student’s skills.  \nHow will it work for the student?  \nQuestions will ADAPT  \nIf the student continues to answer questions correctly, the questions covering the blueprint will continue to get more challenging. If the student starts missing the answers to questions, the program will start to select questions that are easier. The program adapts to how the student is performing.  \nResponses  \n• Because the program knows which questions are harder and which are easier, several students may have answered a similar number of questions correctly, but the student who has answered the more challenging questions correctly will achieve a higher score.  \nPerformance Tasks  \nPerformance Tasks measure a student’s ability to integrate knowledge and skills across multiple standards in a coherent task that requires use of integrated skill sets—a key component of college-and  \ncareer readiness.  \nPerformance tasks measure capacities such as essay writing, research skills, and complex analysis, which are not as easy to assess with individual, discrete items.  \nWhat is a Performance Task?  \nMathematics  \nMath PTs require students to integrate skills across multiple domains, clusters, and standards to demonstrate their ability to use their math knowledge to solve real-world problems.  \nWhat is a Performance Task?  \nELA  \nIn ELA, PTs require students to integrate research and writing to inform/explain, to narrate, or to support an opinion/argument fora designated audience.","cbCaiktGiCnjQzd1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiktGiCnjQzd1","pdf",1464475,31,"English","# District-Wide Summative Assessment Structure\n## Computer Adaptive Test (CAT)\n## Performance Tasks","[{\"question\":\"What are the two components of the Guam District-Wide Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment?\",\"answer\":\"The summative assessment includes a Computer Adaptive Test (CAT) and performance tasks.
