Proficiency Scales correct answers Measure student achievement of knowledge and skills in
standards over time.
Half Point Score Values correct answers Used in proficiency scales for mastery at one level, but
does not meet all of the criteria for the next level.
Generic Scale correct answers Used for every topic where students are rated 1-4 based on their
knowledge. These are not topic-specific; for example, a level 3 is on grade level, but no other
specific information is provided.
Consistency of Behavior correct answers Not to be used on a proficiency scale, as this is a
qualifying type of scale which uses the words sometimes, always, seldom etc.
Definitional Declarative Knowledge correct answers Defining characteristics of something,
describe or explain
Cognitive Analysis Declarative Knowledge correct answers Determining, organizing, analysis
Mental Procedural Knowledge correct answers Skills or processes, evaluates
Parallel Assessments correct answers Monitor students growth on the same skills multiple times.
Assessment Blueprint correct answers Created to ensure assessments are aligned with learning
targets.
Method of Mounting Evidence correct answers Determine what the students' summative score
should be based on prior patterns of scores.
,True score correct answers Recognizes that there is some inherent error on a test, its' an
estimation, the true level of understanding
Observed Score correct answers = True Score + Error Score
Aberrant pattenrs correct answers you need to determine if the pattern is reliable or if the student
was having a bad day etc.
Standards Referenced Grading Systems correct answers students demonstrate learning outcomes
based on standards.
Standards-Based Grading correct answers one standard is assessed at a time
Standards-Based Grading correct answers Assessment results do not contain content outside of
the stated standard.
Measurement Topics correct answers They help identify content and skills to be tested.
Measurement Topics correct answers Concepts
Declarative Knowledge correct answers Understanding concepts without application
Procedural Knowledge correct answers Demonstration is a method of illustrating procedural
knowledge
Parallel Assessments correct answers given to measure student progress on one standard over
time
, Unidimensionality correct answers Parallel Assessments
Parallel Assessments correct answers remove much of the error from student scores to provide a
true score
Point Scoring Method correct answers It is used to determine the percentage of available points a
student earned on sections of a test, which is translated into a score on a proficiency scale
Response Code Scoring correct answers Each student answer is marked with labels, and the
pattern of labels is then examined to determine the student's level of proficiency.
method of mounting evidence correct answers It estimates summative scores over time based on
observed patterns
method of mathematical models correct answers uses technology to estimate a student's true
summative score that occurs at any point in timeUses
best-fit model correct answers It is determined by comparing error rates between the true scores
predicted and the actual scores observed
Marzano Growth Calculator correct answers uses the linear, curvilinear, and average
mathematical models
Marzano Growth Calculator correct answers It calculates true summative scores using three
mathematical models to determine the best-fit model
observed score correct answers includes the true score, which indicates the student's true
understanding of a measurement topic, and the error score, which is based on factors excluding
the student's understanding
