A grade expectation (GE) is a stated objective that relates directly to a Vermont standard and associated evidences. A GE differentiates performance on content knowledge or skills between adjacent grade levels and describe clearly what students will do to show that they understand a designated concept. As a set, GEs should lead to focused, coherent, and developmentally appropriate instruction without narrowing the curriculum and can be used for local curriculum and assessment development.
Designed to support the Technology Grade Expectations (GEs), these content-neutral tasks can support classroom level determination of students’ knowledge and skills related to the GEs. The original performance tasks, created by a group of teachers in the northwestern part of Vermont through support from VITA-Learn, were the foundation for the Technology Grade Expectations. These revised tasks will be supplemented with “model” tasks geared toward numerous grade levels and content areas in summer 2005.
