Electronic Assessment System Cross Curricular Unit Development and Application Level Performance Tasks Development of widespread, purposeful Technology usage Moving Lindsay High School into the Common Core System

Electronic Assessment Systems  100% of High School Assessments can be taken online  Results are automatically linked to the scoring and reporting system  Allows for immediate feedback to the learner, parent, and learning facilitator

Cross Curricular Unit Development and Application Level Performance Tasks  Ensures that reading/writing are used across disciplines  Learners study multiple learning targets across disciplines  Increases depth knowledge and addresses learning at application knowledge  Adding performance based tasks that require application level to curriculum and assessment

Developing the Use of Technology  Ensuring that every learner has access to a computer and the internet in school and at home  Ensuring that Learning Facilitators have the skills to use technology as an accelerator for learning  Using technology 24/7 as a tool for learning anywhere, anytime

The Performance Based System addresses the implementation of common core through the use of an electronic assessment system, cross curricular unit development, application level tasks and development of widespread, purposeful technology. Lindsay Unified School District
