Mathematics (09) Practice TestDIRECTIONS FOR THE OPEN-RESPONSE ITEM ASSIGNMENTSThis section of the test consists of two open-response item assignments that appear on the following pages. Youwill be asked to prepare a written response of approximately 1–2 pages for each assignment. You should use yourtime to plan, write, review, and edit your response for each assignment.For each assignment, read the topic and directions carefully before you begin to work. Think about how you willorganize your response. You may use any blank space in this test booklet to make notes, write an outline, orotherwise prepare your response.As a whole, your response to each assignment must demonstrate an understanding of the knowledge of the field.In your response to each assignment, you are expected to demonstrate the depth of your understanding of thesubject area by applying your knowledge rather than by merely reciting factual information.Your response to each assignment will be evaluated based on the following criteria.• PURPOSE: the extent to which the response achieves the purpose of the assignment• SUBJECT KNOWLEDGE: appropriateness and accuracy in the application of subject knowledge• SUPPORT: quality and relevance of supporting evidence• RATIONALE: soundness of argument and degree of understanding of the subject areaThe open-response item assignments are intended to assess subject knowledge. Your responses must becommunicated clearly enough to permit valid judgment of the evaluation criteria by scorers. Your responsesshould be written for an audience of educators in this field. The final version of each response should conformto the conventions of edited American English. Your responses should be your original work, written in yourown words, and not copied or paraphrased from some other work.Be sure to write about the assigned topics. Please write legibly.
