WGU D184 Standards-Based Assessment FINAL EXAM PREP 2025/2026 ACCURATE QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED CORRECT ANSWERS || 100% GUARANTEED PASS&lt;LATEST VERSION&gt; 1. Reliability - ANSWER Assessment accurately and constantly measures the same content for ALL STUDENTS. ( same outcome ) 2. Validity - ANSWER Refers to the degree which the assessment is relevant to the content and measures what it's supposed measure. 3. Unidemensionality - ANSWER One aspect ( standard) measured at a time 4. Assessment Blueprint - ANSWER Specifies assessment 5. skills, assessment types, # of assessments 6. Proved Proper coverage on blueprint - ANSWER % of times and difficulty level for each topic 7. Increases blueprint complexity - ANSWER Item types ( m.c, essay, matching ) 8. Response code scoring - ANSWER CC ( completely correct) I ( incorrect) HP ( high partial accuracy) LP ( low partial accuracy) No points, just codes/ letters to label proficiency 9. Point scoring - ANSWER Assign points to each item, proficiency determine by % 10. Mounting Evidence - ANSWER Use multiple indicators to find patterns of student achievement and determine summative scores 11. Linear trend - ANSWER Math model in which it's assumed there is a steady and equal increase in learning over time. 12. Curvilinear Trend - ANSWER Assumption that when initially learning something, students demonstrate rather large jumps but over time. Increase flattens out 13. Average - ANSWER The assumption that no learning occurs from assessment to assessment ( looks like a straight line on a bar graph) Students scores are combined and averaged 14. True score - ANSWER An estimation of a students actual score on an assessment if there was no error. Are considered accurate measures of student knowledge although efforts should be made to reduce errors. Represents students true level of understanding 15. Observed score - ANSWER true score + error score 16. Error score - ANSWER The part of the observed score that is due to factors other than the students level of understanding 17. Best fit model - ANSWER The model with the least amount of error ( in regards to mathematical models) 18. 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. 19. How does a teacher know student performance is improving in a standards based grading system? - ANSWER Students achieve higher proficiency levels 20. What does scoring a level 2.0 on a standards-based proficiency scale indicate about student learning when a level 3.0 is the target proficiency level? - ANSWER The student has yet to fully master the standard being assessed. 21. What distinguishes the assessments in a standards-based grading system from those of a traditional grading system? - ANSWER In traditional grading systems, the number of possible points varies by assessment; in standards-based systems, the proficiency scale remains the same, regardless of the assessment. 22. What distinguishes standards-based grading systems from standards referenced grading systems? - ANSWER In standards-based grading systems, students are to meet a defined level of proficiency for the standard; in standards-referenced grading systems, the goal is for students to demonstrate proficiency of learning outcomes based on specific standards. 23. What is one requirement of standards-based grading systems? - ANSWER Adherence to common standards 24. How are standards-based grading systems different from norm-referenced grading systems? - ANSWER The production of descriptive feedback 25. Which grading system focuses on converting demonstrated levels of mastery to total points earned on a proficiency scale? - ANSWER Standards-based grading system 26. What is a teacher's primary focus in a standards-based grading system? - ANSWER Measuring student learning related to the achievement of learning goals 27. Method of Mounting Evidence - ANSWER Determine what the students' summative score should be based on prior patterns of scores. 28. True score - ANSWER Recognizes that there is some inherent error on a test, its' an estimation, the true level of understanding 29. Observed Score - ANSWER = True Score + Error Score 30. Aberrant pattenrs - ANSWER you need to determine if the pattern is reliable or if the student was having a bad day etc. 31. Standards Referenced Grading Systems - ANSWER students demonstrate learning outcomes based on standards. 32. Standards-Based Grading - ANSWER one standard is assessed at a time 33. Standards-Based Grading - ANSWER Assessment results do not contain content outside of the stated standard. 34. Measurement Topics - ANSWER They help identify content and skills to be tested. 35. Measurement Topics - ANSWER Concepts 36. Declarative Knowledge - ANSWER Understanding concepts without application 37. Procedural Knowledge - ANSWER Demonstration is a method of illustrating procedural knowledge 38. Parallel Assessments - ANSWER given to measure student progress on one standard over time 39. Unidimensionality - ANSWER Parallel Assessments 40. Parallel Assessments - ANSWER remove much of the error from student scores to provide a true score 41. Point Scoring Method - ANSWER 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 42. Response Code Scoring - ANSWER Each student answer is marked with labels, and the pattern of labels is then examined to determine the student's level of proficiency. 43. method of mounting evidence - ANSWER It estimates summative scores over time based on observed patterns
