1 COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM OF STUDENT ASSESSMENT STANDARDS BASED ASSESSMENTS (SBA) Science Practice Test Scoring Guide Grade 8 Alaska Department of Education & Early Development
2 Science Practice Test Scoring Guide with Answer Keys, Scoring Guidelines, and Sample Papers General Introduction The Alaska Department of Education and Early Development (EED), in cooperation with Data Recognition Corporation, designed and produced the Alaska Science Practice Tests to support students in doing their best on the Alaska Comprehensive System of Student Assessment, Standards Based Assessments in science (grades 4, 8, & 10). A scoring guide, with answer keys, scoring guidelines, sample student papers, and a test map, provides the teacher with information and tools to score each practice test. Content A Practice Test Scoring Guide for each grade level and subject area is posted on the EED Website ( To access this website, follow these instructions. Directions to access the AK EED Website 1. Type or copy and paste the link to the Alaska EED Website into your browser Select Standards Based Assessments. 3. Select Item Samplers / Practice Tests. 4. Select the grade-level assessment (or other document) you wish to download. 5. At this point you may save the file to your computer or print the file directly from the website. Printing from the website can be very time consuming. It is likely you will want to save the file(s) to your computer, then print. This guide is divided into two sections. Section I includes the answer keys and scoring guidelines (with detailed item-specific scoring rubrics for scoring short and extended constructed-response questions) and sample student papers with annotations for each score point. Section II presents a grade-level test map that lists item sequence, corresponding Grade Level Expectation, and an answer key. Purpose The items included for the science practice test were created for use in Alaska classrooms. These materials may be copied and used as part of a local instructional program.* Alaska educators may use the science practice tests, the Science Practice Test Administration Directions, and the Science Practice Test Scoring Guides to support daily instruction in the classroom and to prepare their students for the operational standards based assessments. Important: The practice tests were developed for usability purposes only, and in no way should the tests or scores students receive be considered a predictor of a student s ability to perform on the operational Standards Based Assessments. The science items provide samples of what students will see on the operational tests. Items are not necessarily the same in terms of measurement, rigor, or the length of time it takes a student to respond. *The permission to copy and/or use these materials does not extend to commercial purposes. Science Practice Test Scoring Guide: Grade 8 2
3 Item Format The science practice test includes two types of science items: multiple choice and constructed response. Practice test multiple-choice items have four answer options. The correct response to each multiple-choice item is worth one point. For grade 8 science, two types of constructed-response items are presented in the science practice test: short constructed response (SCR) are 2-point items; extended constructed response (ECR) are 4-point items. Item-specific scoring guidelines and examples of responses for each score point are presented with each constructed-response item. Scoring Guidelines These guidelines contain multiple-choice answer keys and general scoring rubrics for 2-point and 4-point constructed-response items. The general scoring rubric includes item-specific guidelines to assist the teacher with scoring constructed-response items. Sample student papers are included for each short and extended constructed-response score point. An item-specific annotation follows each sample student response. The annotations are designed to provide the teacher with the explanation of why the score point was awarded. Test Maps The test map on pages presents the sequence of the items, the Grade Level Expectation to which each item is aligned, and the answer key. This at-a-glance chart is designed to assist the teacher with scoring the practice test. 3 Science Practice Test Scoring Guide: Grade 8

The mixtures were stirred until all of the salt was dissolved. Three trials were performed for each mixture. The time it took for the salt to completely dissolve in each trial was recorded in the table below. Amount of Salt (grams) Dissolved Salt Experiment Data Time to Dissolve Salt (seconds) Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Average Time to Dissolve Salt (seconds) The average time for each amount of salt to dissolve was calculated and recorded in the table. A. Write a testable question that can be answered by doing this experiment. 5 Science Practice Test Scoring Guide: Grade 8
