Smarter Balanced Digital Library - Assessment Information (CA Dept of Education):


Smarter Balanced Digital Library




The Digital Library is a critical component of the Smarter Balanced system of assessments and will include a variety of resources to improve teaching and learning.
The Digital Library, set to launch in 2014, will provide teachers with an online clearinghouse of classroom-based, formative assessment strategies and practices that enhance day-to-day instruction, including resources to interpret data and reports from the Smarter Balanced summative and interim assessments.
State Networks of Educators Recruitment
The California Department of Education will recruit approximately 150 educators to form a State Network of Educators, charged with providing feedback and guidance on the resources to be included in the Smarter Balanced Digital Library.
