Updates for 2018‐19
• Kite Suite has been updated. It is now Kite System. Previous versions will need to be uninstalled and the new Kite Student Portal will need to be installed on all devices used for testing.
• DLM Manuals were released on August 1, 2018.
• There is ONE required test administrators training for educators who have previously administered the MAP‐A assessment.

● Kite Student Portal is an application students use to take tests. Students will each have a Kite username and password. It must be on all student computers.
● Kite Educator Portal is an application that allows educators to enter and manage student data, enroll students in instructionally embedded assessments, retrieve test tickets, and access professional development and training modules. Educators have an Educator Portal username and password. (web‐based: see Quick Link)

Transfer Student Information
• There is not a cutoff date for transfer students.
• If a student moves into your district from in‐state or out of a DLM state, you will obtain the information from the previous district.
• Your assessment coordinator will contact the Assessment section at DESE, and they will assist you in this process so information will not be lost.
• If a student moves to another building in your district, the assessment coordinator will transfer that student and information.
• Accountability is the same as any other student.

• NCLB included a 1% cap on “proficiency rates” on alternate assessments
• ESSA changed to a 1% cap on “participation” on alternate assessments
Districts who exceed the 1% cap on participation will be required to complete a justification form after the assessment data comes in for the school year
ESSA Changes

MAP‐A
• The MAP‐A is required in three content areas:
o ELA in grades 3‐8 and 11
o Math in grades 3‐8 and 11
o Science in grades 5, 8 and 11
• Form D is used for these grades as they are state assessments.
• NOTE: Districts may chose to administer the optional MAP‐A ELA and math assessments to students in grade 9, 10 and 12, and the Science assessment in grades 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10 and 12 for local assessment use. Please refer to Form E.

Troubleshooting
• If unable to log into the training site, check to make sure you have an Educator Portal account or use the option for “Forgot password?”
• Your next step is to read the Test Administrator's Manual and then call your RPDC for further assistance.
● If those steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Missouri’s DLM Help Desk at 1‐844‐675‐4479 or DLM‐[email protected]
• It is recommended that ONE person be appointed to contact the Missouri’s DLM Help Desk and not individual teachers.

Essential Elements and Linkage Levels
Click to enter ContentHow are Essential Elements (EE) Tested?
Each EE found in the Blueprint is eligible for assessment in ELA, math and/or science. Each testlet is comprised of three to nine items.
The testlets for each EE in ELA or math come in five levels of complexity called Linkage Levels.
The testlets for each EE in science come in only three levels of complexity called Linkage Levels.

• In ELA and math, there are five possible Linkage Levels:
○ Initial precursor
○ Distal precursor
○ Proximal precursor
○ Target (at the Essential Element level)
○ Successor (Getting closer to Grade Level Standard)

Ideas for Success

Click to enter Content
Ideas for Success
1. During the Instructionally Embedded Fall/Winter Window for ELA and math, monitor and track progress on EEs. Keep notes on progress and give descriptive feedback to students.
2. Gain a clear understanding of the EEs by deconstructing or unwrapping them.
3. View the Professional Development Modules online to better understand how to teach the EEs.
4. Use the Practice and Released Items with the students prior to administration of the actual testlets.
5. Use the information from Linkage Levels and Mini‐Maps for ELA and math to plan instruction and create IEP goals.
6. Use individual student reports to guide instruction.
49

During the Instructionally Embedded Fall/Winter window for ELA
and math, monitor and track progress on EEs.
In Educator Portal, access and use the Instructional Plan Report to
keep track of progress, take notes and give descriptive feedback
to students.
Suggestion One
50
Click to enter ContentUse Student Reports
This report summarizes the progress of a student in an individual subject area. It only includes information about assessments from instructional plans selected through Instructional Tools Interface (ITI).
Educators may find the report useful when planning or reviewing instruction for a student. The report displays the conceptual area(s) tested, the grade‐level expectation (EE), the level tested, and indicates how the student did.

Suggestion Five
Use the information from Linkage Levels and Mini‐Maps for ELA and math to plan instruction and create IEP goals. • In ELA and math, Mini‐Maps identify important waypoints on route
to an EE and specify a student’s performance in relation to a grade‐level target.
• To find a Mini‐Map for an Essential Element, go to these websites and click on the link for an EE. The Linkage Levels and Mini‐Maps are available for each EE listed.

Suggestion Six
Use Individual Student Reports (ISR) to guide instruction.

Missouri Department of Elementaryand Secondary Education
21
Click to enter ContentISR General Information
• ISRs are located in Educator Portal under the Report tab
• DLM results are not based on raw or scaled scores
• ISRs are in two parts:
Performance Profile
Learning Profile
• Directors and teachers will need to have access to run the parent report and student report. The parent report should be sent out at approximately the same time as MAP and EOC.

ISR: Performance Profile
DLM Performance Level Descriptors:

**Performance Level Descriptors may help in setting goals and daily instruction at the beginning of the year for performance at the end of the previous year.
Mastery of Conceptual Areas are also included in the profile as the next
slide illustrates.

Click to enter ContentISR: Learning Profile
• The Learning Profile describes
EEs tested, including the skills mastered and not mastered;
EEs not tested among those available to be tested in the grade and subject;
outlines the number of EEs and Conceptual Areas tested out of the number expected for the grade level; and
contains the number of EEs that students were required to be tested on and the number on which the student actually tested.

Suggestions for Using the Learning Profile
• Set Instructional Goals
• Connect previous grade’s EEs to current grade
• Identify strengths and weaknesses
• Guide goal development for a standards based IEP
PD modules are also available at www.dlmpd.com

Hints to Interpreting the ISR
• The amount of white space does not necessarily reflect a lack of instruction. DLM is designed so students may be instructed at a linkage level that is an appropriate level of challenge for them.
• Students with the most significant cognitive disabilities have a variety of educational goals. Academics are one part of their educational program.
• Teachers provide instruction beyond what is reflected in the student’s DLM profile, including other academics, functional skills, and other priorities identified in the IEPS.
68
Click to enter Content
Hints to Interpreting ISR• Remember that judgement of mastery is based on what the student
demonstrated on the DLM assessments.
• A student may have demonstrated a similar skill during instruction but not demonstrated the skill during a DLM assessment.
• The assessment measures where students are with regard to the grade‐level target.
• Not all students will perform at the target level, and this is to be expected.
• The number of skills mastered does not mean that a student answered a certain percent of items correctly.

Testlet Information Pages
• The Test Administrator will be provided with a Testlet Information Page (TIP) for each testlet.
• How to obtain TIPs is described fully in the Test Administration Manual.
• During the Instructionally Embedded Fall/Winter Window, TIPs are located next to the Test Tickets. To find them, login to Educator Portal and click on the Test Management tab.
• During the Spring Summative Testing Window, TIPs are acquired as a PDF in the Test Management Section but will NOT be accessible after the first viewing. It is vital for educators to download or print the TIP page.
73
Click to enter ContentTest Administration Practices
• Test Administrators may need to use their best judgement and be flexible while administering the assessment.
• Test Administrators may provide additional supports beyond Personal Needs and Preferences (PNP) options.
• Supports described in the Allowable Practices section of the TESTADMINISTRATION MANUAL are allowed for testlets unless exceptions are noted in the Testlet Information Page (TIP).
