Q & A about theMSL Design Group Work
Jennifer [email protected]
RttT Project Coordinator for Teacher & Leader Effectiveness
MSL Questions1. Will the MSL World Language
participants be meeting again? If so, when and to discuss what?
2. Can we expect a common summative assessment for World Languages? If so, what is it going to look like?
3. Has a company been secured to write exams for World Languages?
MSL Questions4. Is there any chance the state will decide that
World Languages are not important enough to test?
5. How will MSL items or state exams address different aspects of language skills, such as . . .
• Creating language to form sentences and questions?• Interpersonal communication where a student
demonstrates the ability to ask and answer questions?
• Speaking expectations?
MSL Questions6. Is the state considering creating a
format/template for exams but giving districts/charters local control in creating those exams so that the tests could be aligned with:
– the languages taught in their schools?– the local sequencing of units or topics?
7. Is there any news or update on when IIS is going to be available?
