AL Alt Standards

We need to add the Alabama Alternate Achievement Standards to the Lesson Library for customers located in the state of AL. Changes are needed in:

  • Lesson Library
  • Learning Plan
  • Progress Report

Lesson Library

Design

  • In the Key, we need to show the symbol ALAAS

  • This symbol should also show next to any lesson aligned to the standards
  • When a user clicks Actions → Lesson Plan, the standards should appear under the goal section
    • Standards should be truncated to show only the Curriculum Area
    • Clicking on the Curriculum Area will expand the standard details:
      • Standard ID
      • Standard
      • Sub-Standard (if applicable)
      • Grade
      • Description
      • Rationale

Business Rules

  • Standards will show for customers located in the state of AL
  • Standards will show for grade level selected/grade of student selected
    • For example, In Lesson Library (not student specific library), if grade 1 is selected, any lesson aligned to a ALAAS  for grade1 will display the ALAAS symbol
    • In the Student Specific Lesson Library, if the student is in grade 1, any lesson aligned to a ALAAS for grade 1 will display the ALAAS symbol
  • Standards alignment can be found on EdGate portal and attached to the platform request
  • The Area/Domain column on the spreadsheet will show for Curriculum Area
  • If the lesson is aligned to more than one standard, all standards the lesson is aligned to will appear
  • If the lesson aligns to an academic standard as well as an ALAAS standard, the ALAAS standards will show after/below the academic standards.
  • If no sub-standard is available, do not show this field

Learning Plan

Design

  • Show ALAAS symbol next to any lesson name that aligns to a ALAAS Standard on the left-hand list of lessons
  • When lesson is expanded, show ALAAS symbol next to lesson name at top of page
  • Include the phrase Alabama Alternate Achievement Standards next to the Mark as IEP Box
  • Clicking on this phrase will open a pop-up that lists Curriculum Area
  • Clicking on Curriculum Area will expand to show the details:
    • Standard ID
    • Standard
    • Sub-Standard (if applicable)
    • Grade
    • Description
    • Rationale
  • In the Key, display the ALAAS Symbol and the phrase Alabama Alternate Achievement Standards
  • On the print lessons list for "With Standards," each lesson should show the ALAAS symbol next to the lesson name

Business Rules

  • Any lesson aligned to a ALAAS Standard will display the ALAAS symbol
    • This will show for customers located in the state of AL
  • There are no limitations to which roles may view the standards information
  • The Area/Domain column on the spreadsheet will show for Curriculum Area
  • The sub-standard will only show if that field is populated on the spreadsheet
  • If the lesson is aligned to more than one standard, all standards the lesson is aligned to will appear
  • The Description of Expectation column will show for Description
  • When printing a list of lessons and selecting "With Standards", lessons aligned to any standard will pull to the list.
  • We will show the ALAAS standards after/below the academic standards
    • In Key, show ALAAS after CCSS
    • If a lesson aligns to both a ALAAS and a CCSS:
      • On Lesson List, display ALAAS symbol after CCSS
      • On Main Display
        • Display ALAAS symbol after CCSS next to lesson Name
        • Next to Mark as IEP Box, display Alabama Alternate Achievement Standards below Common Core State Standards

Progress Report

Design

  • Once "Learning Standards" has been selected, the ALAAS Standards will appear under View Details
  • The heading for the section should be Alabama Alternate Achievement Standards
  • Under this heading, display the following fields:
    • Curriculum Area
    • Standard ID
    • Standard
    • Sub-Standard (if applicable)
    • Grade
    • Description
    • Rationale

Business Rules


  • Any lesson aligned to a standard for the student's grade level will display the standards information under View Details
    • We will only show the grade the student is assigned to. Meaning, if a lesson aligns to standards for grades 3, 4, & 5, and the student is in Grade 3, we will only show the standard for grade 3.
  • If a lesson is aligned to both academic standards AND a SEL Standard, the ALAAS standards will fall below the CCSS standards and above the SEL Standards
