Hawaii alignments completed

PASeries Mathematics items are now aligned to the Hawaii Content & Performance Standards III (HCPS III). In its support of educators and administrators, the PASeries team continues its efforts to align PASeries Mathematics items to individual state standards.

Now, Hawaii educators can view individual item alignments in the Item Analysis Report for Mathematics Screener, Progress, and Diagnostic assessments. Convenient .pdf guides of the alignments can also be downloaded from the PASeries Resource Library. However, we hope that hand delivery of the alignments becomes a more popular option!

Watch here for more information as state specific alignment efforts continue.

Printable .pdf guides of the alignments are available in the PASeries Resource Library. PASeries users in North Carolina will also find links for each item's alignment in the Mathematics Item Analysis Reports.

The PASeries team is busily working to complete more alignments for more states to assist administrators and educators in their efforts to improve student learning. Watch here for more information as we roll out these alignments in the coming months.
