TEA is a huge entity. If you could hear my accent, huge would have several syllables for emphasis. Size is the only reason I can figure out that some people get information and others don't. The people involved there do the best they can to balance security, permissions, and other stuff - but it's frustrating. Just today, I saw a post that someone didn't know that 3rd graders could be assessed with an argumentative prompt on any kind of genre of reading.
Texas Council for the Social Studies had a conference in October of 2023. Jo Ann Bilderback and Carmen Trejo presented for West Ed and TEA. (Someone who knows the connections can explain that to me sometime.) The resources associated with the session were created in February of 2023. Looks like the session was also offered in Region 14 at some time as well. Winter.
And now it's November. Next month our high school retesters will be taking the exam again. We need (and needed) this information. And it looks like great stuff! Why are we finding out about this stuff on accident? Why are only certain folks getting access? What am I missing? I try to be on top of things and to study, research, and attend sessions. What should we all do to have timely access to critical information?
I looked online where TEA posts recent presentations. Can't find it anywhere. So here it is:
SCR Training from the TCSS conference
Now the question: Is there something out there about ECR that would help us?
Another training from September.
