What is true of the method of mounting evidence?
a. It estimates summative scores over time based on observed patterns.
b. It establishes summative scores by plotting a line that increases or decreases in equal
increments.
c. It uses mathematics to estimate true summative scores that occur at any point in time.
d. It determines summative scores by averaging all observed scores. - ANSWER-a. It estimates
summative scores over time based on observed patterns.
The method of mounting evidence is a structured process of continuous observation of score patterns
that results in estimated summative scores.
Which advantage do standards-based grading systems have over traditional grading systems? -
ANSWER-One individual standard is assessed at a time, rather than multiple standards.
Which characteristics apply to standards-based grading? - ANSWER-- Teachers tailor instruction based
on student achievement
- Scores are recorded on proficiency scales
- Grades reflect student mastery of a learning target.
Which description accurately defines standard-based grading? - ANSWER-A system of grading that
tracks student progress toward and achievement of learning targets that are derived from educational

solution 2024/2025
b. error score = true score + observed score
c. true score = observed score + error score
d. true score = error score - observed score - ANSWER-a. observed score = true score + error score
The observed score 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.
Which evidence do teachers use to evaluate student knowledge and comprehension in a standards-
based grading system? - ANSWER-Students demonstrate a level of mastery related to a specific
measurement topic.
Which focus statement assesses declarative knowledge? a. Understands the synthesis of adenosine
triphosphate
b. Analyzes and documents the steps in the process of the citric acid cycle
c. Creates a presentation about proton gradients
d. Illustrates a mitochondrion - ANSWER-a. Understands the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate
Which focus statement assesses declarative knowledge? a. Utilizes paint colors to create a new color
b. Understands how certain colors are created
c. Explains the effects of mixing certain paint colors
d. Photographs a painting - ANSWER-b. Understands how certain colors are created.
Which focus statement assesses procedural knowledge?
a. Demonstrates troop movements at the Battle of the Bulge
b. Understands the outcome of WWII on world politics
