Type 3 assessment definition

Type 3 assessment means any assessment that is rigorous, that is aligned to the course’s curriculum, and that the qualified evaluator and teacher determine measures student learning in that course. Examples include teacher-created assessments, assessments designed by textbook publishers, student work samples or portfolios, assessments of student performance, and assessments designed by staff who are subject or grade- level experts that are administered commonly across a given grade or subject. A Type I or Type II assessment may qualify as a Type III.
