AI Summary

This bill requires the use of a computer-adaptive assessment to identify student achievement, growth, and for education system accountability. It amends the General Laws to mandate the use of a computer-adaptive assessment mechanism that can monitor the progress of individual students through learning standards in core subjects like English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. This mechanism aims to identify the learning standards students have already mastered and those they haven't, to ensure continuous progress, identify each student's learning readiness, and hold educators more accurately and fairly accountable through an authentic measure of student achievement and growth.
