Role of Committees. Content review committees are convened to validate the content appropriateness of all items, passages, and scenario-based tasks prior to inclusion in the bank. ETS facilitators meet with content review committee (either in person, or in a moderated online review) to discuss each item. Committee members consider the following questions as they review assessment materials: Is the content of the item accurate? Is the item correctly aligned to the standard? Is the item an appropriate measure of student ability? Based on these questions, the committee may decide to accept, revise, or reject an item, passage, or task from the bank. All items must complete this committee review prior to selection for use. Bias/Sensitivity review committees are convened to ensure that the content of assessment materials are free of any information or subject matter that may favor one group of students over another (criteria for group differences include gender, race/ethnicity, urban/rural, and socioeconomic status), or that may be disturbing or provoke an emotional response that could affect student performance. In committee recruitment, ETS recommends seeking teacher representatives reflecting the broad diversity of the state’s population to ensure that many perspectives are represented in committee deliberations. ETS will provide facilitators with special training in facilitating bias and sensitivity reviews. Bias/Sensitivity committees are asked to consider the following questions as they review assessment materials: Does the item, passage, or task contain information that may favor one group over another? Does the item, passage, or task contain information that may be disturbing, controversial, or provoke an emotional response among some test takers? If the answer to either question is yes, the committee will be asked to consider whether the item, passage, or task is an appropriate measure of student ability for the given standard. Based on discussion around this last question, the committee may recommend edits to the item, or may recommend it be rejected. Finally, the bias/sensitivity committee will evaluate the set of items as a whole to determine whether the items, passages, and tasks are representative of the gender, racial/ethnic, socioeconomic, and urban/rural makeup of the state.
