مستخلص: Arizona's Instrument to Measure Standards Dual Purpose Assessment (AIMS DPA) is a combination of two separate tests. One test is AIMS, which measures how well the student knows the reading, writing, and mathematics content that all Arizona students in the student's grade level are expected to know and be able to do. AIMS DPA includes multiple-choice questions in reading and mathematics and one extended writing response. The other test included in the AIMS DPA is the TerraNova, which compares your performance in reading, language arts, and mathematics to the performance of other students at the fifth grade level nationwide. The TerraNova test questions are all multiple-choice questions. They make up a small portion of the reading and mathematics sections of the AIMS DPA test. Test items were written to measure specifically the Standards, Concepts, and Performance Objectives described in the Arizona Academic Standards. Standards were articulated by grade level for reading and mathematics and approved by the state Board of Education in March 2003. Reading and mathematics items are multiple-choice. There is no multiple-choice questions on the writing test. The Writing Standard was articulated by grade level and approved by the state Board of Education in March 2003. There is an extended writing prompt that students use to actively engage in the writing process. The student's writing is scored using the Six Trait Rubric [TM]. This guide is divided into the three subject areas assessed on AIMS DPA. It gives a short explanation of each testing format, hints for test-taking, sample test questions, and a scoring guide for written responses. It does not teach students what they should know and be able to do to score well on the tests, but it will help them become familiar with the tests. The sections of this guide are: (1) AIMS DPA FAQ; (2) Reading; (3) Writing; (4) Mathematics; (5) Scoring Keys; (6) Six Trait Writing Rubric; (7) Test-Taking Strategies; and (8) a blank page for writing notes.
