These multi-part\, phenomenon-based items are central to assessing students’ ability to apply science and engineering practices\, crosscutting concepts\, and core disciplinary ideas in context. This full-day workshop provides a deep dive into understanding\, analyzing\, and designing cluster questions. Participants will actively engage with released sample questions\, practice scoring student responses\, and collaboratively develop their own cluster questions for classroom and assessment use.By the end of this workshop\, participants will: -Understand the structure and purpose of cluster questions on the NYSSLS Regents Physics exam.-Examine the alignment between cluster questions and the three dimensions of the NYSSLS. -Practice answering released cluster questions to better anticipate student thinking. -Design original cluster questions based on NYSSLS Performance Expectations and classroom phenomena. -Leave with a set of ready-to-use cluster questions and rubrics for each NYSSLS physics performance objective.Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit.
