STAAR Corner: An update about the redesign of the state’s summative test. School campuses across Texas are preparing for the upcoming changes to the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®) that will better align the test to high-quality classroom instruction. Beginning with the spring 2023 STAAR administration, new non-multiple-choice question types that teachers already use during effective instruction will be incorporated into the test. The new question types were developed with input from Texas teachers, students, and a wide range of educational stakeholders and assessment experts. TEA field-tested these new question types during 2022 to verify their ability to accurately and reliably measure students’ understanding of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS).
