| OH | Signed into law 12/2006 | P-12
Postsec. | Requires that the partnership for continued learning, in conjunction with the Ohio board of regents and the state board, recommend a means of assessing high school students' college and work readiness, especially in English and mathematics. The partnership is to recommend one or more assessments that can achieve the following goals:
(A) Measure students' skills against identified college and work-ready expectations in English and mathematics and serve as an indicator of students' readiness to successfully complete introductory level coursework at an institution of higher education and to avoid remedial coursework;
(B) Promote consistency in high school academic course content, quality, and expectations;
(C) Provide individual students with information to assist in planning the remaining high school learning experience;
(D) Serve as one indicator for college admission or placement;
(E) Assist institutions of higher education in aligning remedial coursework with the college and work-ready expectations measured by the assessments.
In evaluating the range of assessment tools, the partnership is to consult with the state board of education and the board of regents to consider the suitability for this purpose of existing state and commercial assessments, including the Ohio graduation tests. The partnership's recommendations are to describe how its recommended assessments fit within the existing system of state achievement tests. Recommendations are due not later than July 30, 2007. Sec. 3301.46 requires the state department and board of regents to propose a standard method and form for documenting on high school transcripts high school credits earned that are compatible with the standards for credit transfer and arcitulation adopted by the board of regents.
Section 3302.032 requires the state board to select one or more methods of measuring high school graduates' preparedness for higher education and the workforce. Measures may include, but need not be limited to, measures such as performance on assessments, percentage of students who earn credit toward a degree while in high school, or the percentage of students who take remedial coursework upon enrollment in an institution of higher education. School district and school report cards must report on each applicable measure but measures do not contribute to district or school rating.
