Assembly Bill 484
• Establishes California’s new statewide student assessment system, the California Measurement of Academic Performance and Progress (CalMAPP)
• The primary purpose of the assessment system is to assist teachers, administrators, and students and their parents by promoting high-quality teaching and learning using a variety of assessment approaches and item types

• Spring 2014 Smarter Balanced Field Test for ELA and math in grades 3 through 11*
• Current California Standards Test and California Modified Assessment for science in grades 5, 8, and 10
• Current California Alternate Performance Assessment for ELA and math in grades 2 through 11 and for science in grades 5, 8, and 10
* Grades 9 & 10 are part of Smarter Balanced prescribed sampling only and will not include all students in those grades.

• Early Assessment Program (EAP) for grade eleven students
– English-language Arts– Algebra II or Summative High School Math – EAP score for individual students only; no school-, district-, state-level
scores are provided
• Standards-based Tests in Spanish (STS)– Optional for local educational agencies (LEAs) to administer – Administration costs of STS for Reading Language Arts will be
covered by the CDE– Pupils identified as limited English proficient enrolled in any of
grades 2 to 11, who either receives instruction in his or her primary language or has been enrolled in a school in the United States for less than 12 months

Smarter Balanced Assessment Summary: Main Components
Teachers, schools and districts have access to high quality and highly accurate student data and teaching resources , through the digital library
throughout the year and across years to improve teaching and
learning
Interim assessments Flexible, open, used for actionable feedback
Summative assessments Longitudinal measures benchmarked to college and career readiness
Teacher resources for formative tools – practices to improve instruction
End of year assessment of student learning, consisting of a computer adaptive test and computer administered performance tasks and aligned with Common Core; assesses annual progress
Optional assessments, administered at locally determined intervals to provide educators with actionable information about student progress throughout the year; will be computer adaptive and include performance tasks
Professional development materials, teaching resources for differentiated instruction and an item bank for developing and aligning assessments to Common Core and Smarter Balanced claims and assessment targets

Best size cansThe Fresha Drink Company is marketing a new soft drink.
The drink will be sold in a can that holds 200 cm3.
In order to keep costs low, the company wants to use the smallest amount of aluminum.
Find the radius and height of this cylindrical can which holds 200 cm3 and uses the smallest amount of aluminum.
Explain your reasoning and show all of your calculations.
