PBAs/EOYs/EOCs and Test Sessions
Ohio's new assessments differ largely from what we are used to. The basic premise is that a Performance-Based Assessment will be administered when a course is approximately 75% complete. Near the conclusion of the course, an End of Year (EOY)/End of Course (EOC) test will be administered. These new assessments have been developed by two privately contracted entities (PARCC - ELA and Math and AIR (Science/Social Studies).
Another substantial difference is that these assessments have multiple sessions. In the past, all standardized tests have been given on one day in one session lasting approximately two hours. The following table details how the new assessments are broken down:
