NC Check-Ins (2.0)
NC Check-Ins
NC Check-Ins are interim assessments aligned to North Carolina grade-level content standards developed by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI). The main purpose of NC Check-Ins is to provide students, teachers, parents, and stakeholders with immediate in-depth action-data and a reliable estimate of students’ current performance on the selected sub-set of content standards.
NC Check-Ins 2.0
The North Carolina Personalized Assessment Tool is a system of through-course assessment opportunities aimed towards a balanced assessment system that will provide granular data for immediate feedback about students’ performance throughout the year. The system is currently being developed as a pilot under the U.S Department of Education’s Innovative Assessment Demonstration Authority (IADA) and consists of the NC Check-Ins 2.0 and a flexible summative assessment.
The current design purposes of NC Check-Ins 2.0 are:
To provide educators, students, and stakeholders with immediate and detailed feedback on grade-level specific content standards so classroom instruction may be tailored to individual student’s needs;
To provide a progress indicator for each interim on individual student’s performance in relation to overall grade-level performance expectation; and
To serve as a reliable indicator to determine appropriate staged adaptive summative assessment that will provide an academic achievement level for students and for the statewide accountability model.
