Biology HSA: The high school Biology Public Release Forms were released by MSDE each year in the fall to provide examples of how students will be assessed in Biology. The items included on these Public Release Forms measure students' knowledge of skills, processes and concepts as stated in the Biology Core Learning Goal indicators. For each item you can see which indicator each item measured, view field test data, take mini-assessments online, print the form, view the rubric, listen to an explanation of the rubric and anchor papers used to score the constructed responses, and practice scoring actual student responses. http://mdk12.org/mspp/high_school/look_like/biology/intro.html
This is the Maryland Department of Education site which describes the state Biology curriculum and discusses the HSA testing that curriculum next May. http://mdk12.org/mspp/high_school/what_will/biology/goal1.html
