Text (slide 34):
English Proficiency Assessments
States may use a common assessment statewide or multiple assessments. If multiple assessments are used, States must:
- Set technical criteria for the assessments.
- Ensure the assessments are equivalent to one another in their content, difficulty, and quality.
- Review and approve each assessment.
- Ensure that the data from all assessments can be aggregated for comparison and reporting purposes.
