Missouri is one of 32 states in the Smarter-Balanced Assessment Consortium. Missouri is one of 17 “governing” states.
$160 million awarded by the U.S. Department of Education to support development of a next-generation assessment system development.
The system will include formative, interim/benchmark and summative assessments including both end-of-course and end-of-high school (college and career readiness) tests.
Assessments will include items similar to those in the current system—multiple choice, constructed response, and performance events. All assessment will be available on-line.
The system will replace our current MAP/EOC tests for English language arts and mathematics starting in 2013-2014.
