Test Bank Elementary and Middle School Mathematics Teaching Developmentally 11th Edition John a. Van De Walle Watermark Using the Test Item Files Test item files are assessment banks designed to assis ... t instructors in providing high quality assessments that allow students to demonstrate their knowledge of—and ability to apply—key chapter content. To accommodate different platforms, test item files are available (and importable) for the following Learning Management System (LMS) formats: • Blackboard • Canvas • D2L • Moodle Note: The Word document versions of the test item file are separated by chapter and include every item that is provided in the LMS-compatible file. If your campus does not use one of the platforms listed above, or if you wish to administer assessments on paper, you can copy and paste items from the word document versions to create your own assignments, quizzes, or tests. Use caution when copy/pasting assessment items—you will want to remove any text that indicates the correct answer. Assessment Item Types Below you will find descriptions of possible assessment item types. Assessment Type Format Description Learning Outcome Quizzes Multiple Choice Learning outcome (LO) quizzes are designed to assess the learner’s comprehension of key learning outcomes within a chapter. Each chapter learning outcome will have a dedicated LO quiz. To help guide learning, feedback is provided for both the correct and incorrect answer choices. Application Exercises Short Answer/Essay (usually) Multiple Choice (at times) Application exercises are designed to give learners the opportunity to practice applying the content and strategies from the chapter. These exercises can be video-based, written case/scenario-based, or based on an artifact (e.g., assessment results, student work, research article, etc.). Feedback is provided in the form of a model response to give the student guidance on the accuracy of their response, and also to assist the instructor in grading the response. Chapter Test Multiple Choice Short Answer/Essay Chapter tests can be used to assess students' learning after all chapter readings and assignments have been completed. VERIFIEDBRAINBOOSTER VERIFIEDBRAINBOOSTER Licensure Exam Practice (Included in select titles only) Multiple Choice Short Answer/Essay Licensure exam practice exercises are modeled after questions found on teacher licensure tests, and are meant to help readers prepare for their certification exams. Short answer questions include feedback in the form of a model response. Video Observation and Analysis Exercises (Included in select titles only) Short Answer/Essay These exercises help teacher candidates learn how to effectively observe and analyze teaching. While observing an authentic classroom video, students use a rubric to guide their analysis of the teacher in the video, while also making timestamped comments that identify specific events in the video that align to the criteria being evaluated. Feedback is provided in the form of a model response that includes relevant time stamps and events, as well as the suggested rubric rating from a subject matter expert. Pearson eText Some of the assessment items within Application Exercises may require access to the Pearson eText version of this title. Within the eText you will find embedded video examples and/or classroom artifacts that provide the background information required to answer these questions. Assessment items that require eText content will include one of the following notes as part of the question stem or prompt: • Use Pearson eText Video Example X.X to answer the following question… • Use Pearson eText Artifact X.X to answer the following question… If you are an instructor and need access to the Pearson eText, contact your sales representative: https://www.pearson.com/us/contact-us/find-your-rep.html. Exercise Naming Conventions Below you will find examples of how exercises in the test item file have been named, along with an explanation for what each component represents. Examples: • 01 Learning Outcome Quiz 1.1 • 01 Learning Outcome Quiz 1.2 • 01 Application Exercise 1.1 • 01 Application Exercise 1.2 • 01 Chapter Test 1 • 02 Learning Outcome Quiz 2.1, etc. VERIFIEDBRAINBOOSTER VERIFIEDBRAINBOOSTER In the above examples, the first number (e.g., 01) indicates the assessment is aligned with Chapter 1. The second term (e.g., Learning Outcome Quiz) indicates the assessment type. The final number indicates the sequence numbering within the chapter. For example, if there are three Learning Outcome Quizzes in Chapter 1, they will be numbered 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3. The first number (1) represents the chapter number, and the second number (1, 2, and 3) represents the sequence within the chapter. Based on these naming conventions, the first Learning Outcome Quiz in chapter two would be named 02 Learning Outcome Quiz 2.1 (see final bullet above). Importing and Using Test Item Files in Your Learning Management System Below you will find instructions for importing LMS-compatible files into your campus learning platform (Blackboard, Canvas, D2L, or Moodle). Your campus might be using a version of the learning platform software that is different from the one that was used when creating these instructions. This could lead to slight mismatches between the instructions and what you are seeing on your screen. If you encounter problems with the import process, please try contacting your campus LMS administrator for assistance. If you are still unable to import the file, please contact your sales representative (https://www.pearson.com/us/contact-us/find-your-rep.html). Note: The import steps detailed below assume that you: 1) have already created your course shell within your learning platform, and 2) have already downloaded the importable test item file from the Pearson website.
