The Oklahoma State Department of Education's web site contains invaluable resources for teachers and administrators in understanding and moving forward with continuous improvement. The links below will take you directly to information such as the PASS standards, testing blueprints, item specifications, and numerous other topics.
The Testing Blueprints reflect the degree to which each PASS standard and objective is represented on the test.
The Item Specifications describe how the assessment items are designed and what factors drive that design. Example items are included for demonstration purposes.
Performance Level Descriptors describe specifically what a student can demonstrate if they are Advanced, Satisfactory, Limited Knowledge, and Unsatisfactory.
The test specifications for each of the Oklahoma state achievement tests are available via the url links located in this folder. Not all test specification files are currently available on the state department web site.
