From cbrown at osrhe.edu Thu Apr 7 16:25:20 2016 From: cbrown at osrhe.edu (Brown, Cynthia (OSRHE)) Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2016 21:25:20 +0000 Subject: [Okepas] OK EPAS EXPLORE / PLAN Scholars Message-ID: <40725C2F1AA6F1439615D767C663D7754DB00440@Drake.osrhe.edu> I hope this note finds you well and not yet too stressed over the challenges that face you in the coming weeks. I've had a few calls and emails about the OK EPAS Scholars Certificates. I'm sad to say that those are no longer available. As you know, ACT are no longer offering the EXPLORE and PLAN assessments. We were able to provide some assessments this year but could not afford to purchase the data file for the Scholars Certificates. You certainly may choose to honor the students. The program was based on the ACT research which established the EXPLORE, PLAN and ACT benchmarks which predict college readiness. I have included that information here: EXPLORE PLAN ACT English 13 15 18 Mathematics 17 19 22 Reading 16 18 22 Science Reasoning 18 20 23 I should also take a moment to explain that there was other research that was done to identify what EXPLORE and PLAN scores predict a score of 19 on the ACT. That chart is below. EXPLORE PLAN ACT English 14 16 19 Mathematics 15 17 19 Reading 14 15 19 Science Reasoning 15 16 19 As always, thanks for the vital work you do with Oklahoma's young people. You can be among the most important influences in a student's life. Thanks, Cindy Cynthia Brown, Ed.D.
