AI Summary

This bill requires the use of a computer-adaptive assessment to identify student achievement, growth, and for education system accountability. Specifically, it amends Section 1 of Chapter 69 of the General Laws to establish an effective mechanism, such as a computer-adaptive assessment, for monitoring the progress of individual students' mastery through various K-12 learning standards in core subjects. The goal is to identify the learning standards that students have already mastered and those they have not, in order to ensure continuous student progress, determine their learning readiness, and hold educators more accurately and fairly accountable through authentic measures of student achievement and growth.
