Abstract The Smarter Balanced grade 11 summative assessment is a career and college readiness assessment aligned with the Common Core State Standards. In addition to its use as a measure in the high school, over 200 colleges and universities in 10 states use the results of this assessment as part of a multiple measures approach for placement in writing and mathematics. Our focus in this review is on the assessment’s use in college and university writing placement. We discuss the writing constructs made evident in the assessment in addition to what is not measured in order to identify the possibilities and limitations of its use in college writing placement. We offer suggestions for future research into the consequential validity of the assessment.

摘要 Smarter Balanced 11 年级总结性评估是符合共同核心州标准的职业和大学准备评估。除了用作高中的衡量标准外，10 个州的 200 多所学院和大学使用该评估的结果作为写作和数学安置的多重衡量方法的一部分。我们在这篇评论中的重点是评估在大学和大学写作安置中的使用。除了未测量的内容之外，我们还讨论了评估中明显的写作结构，以确定其在大学写作布置中使用的可能性和局限性。我们为未来对评估结果有效性的研究提供建议。
