Who will be involved in the development and review of the items that compose the CAA item banks?
Experienced Alberta teachers will be involved in the development, review, and field-testing (validation) of all items used in the CAA system. Item development processes similar to those used by Alberta Education for the provincial testing programs will be implemented to ensure item quality (i.e., curricular alignment, relevance, currency, appropriateness, etc.). In addition, items will be systematically and periodically reviewed.
