Information from interims in this category can be used to start conversations that may inform school or district decisions. School and district staff should only use interim results with other school- and district-level evidence. School/District Conversation can be used if an interim result will be a facet of a larger conversation. Interim administration for classroom use can be either non-standardized, or similar to a summative administration. After consulting other sources of information for context, information from interims in this category should be used only by classroom teachers to inform student instruction. Teachers can use interims flexibly within the classroom. Classroom use is intended wholly for the teacher and their own use connected to their own formative assessment practices. The Smarter Balanced Interpretive Guide for ELA and Mathematics Assessments provides additional information on different features within the SRS.Īdditionally, the manner of administration for an interim has been changed to Classroom and School/District Conversation. SRS provides additional information about items including difficulty, evaluating the questions and the connection to whole class results, individual student answers more readily, and additional sorting options. Like AIRWays, a teacher can still see all of the interims given in one place and evaluate student results. The Smarter Reporting System (SRS) will replace AIRWays as the destination to look at interim results for ELA and Mathematics.
