Here we are! The CSAP brings up a whole host of emotions and opinions. I like the CSAP. The CSAP is the only objective measurement we have in the state of Colorado. When you think about a state with 170+ school districts and hundreds of thousands of students and thousands of teachers I'm thankful for the one measurement that cuts through the fog of the teaching - learning process. The future of assessment in Colorado is changing. Senate Bill 212, the Colorado Achievement Plan, or CAP4Kids, is coming. Right now the state is working on rewriting Colorado's standards with a very clear end product: Fewer, Clearer, and more Rigorous. For the first time the Colorado Department of Education and the Colorado Commission of Higher Education is working together. There is also much discussion centered on assessment and the future of CSAP, particularly at the high school level. You can follow the process by clicking below!
