What item type should be included to assess target level three proficiency
An extended construction response item the students to offer and support an opinion
Which score must be considered when using the method of mounting evidence to determine
a student summative score
The most frequent score on all assessments
What indicates the concept of best fit when analyzing assessment scores?
The lowest percentage of error between actual and predicted scores
Why are mathematical models used in standardized base grading?
To estimate students true summative score
How is the students true score related to an error score
A true score is an estimate of actual score. If the student had a zero error score.
What is important to consider about the accuracy of true scores when assessing student
knowledge
True scores are accurate measures of student knowledge, but effort should be made to reduced
assessment errors
A student achieved the following assessment score for a measurement topic based on a four-
point proficiency scale
The teacher estimate the students summit score rounded to the nearest tent, 3.1 which
mathematical model did the teacher use to estimate the students true summit
Linear trend
, As soon achieve the following assessment scores for the measurement topic based on a four-
point proficiency scale, what is the student sum of score rounded to the nearest 10th using
the average model?
2.7
What is a benefit of using standard base grading compared to norm-reference grading?
Teachers are able to help students focus on learning, goals and track their progress.
Why do teachers only grade student work related to the achievement of learning targets and
standards-base grading systems?
Teachers are able to help students focus on learning, goals and track their progress.
A grading scale reflects the following details:
4- Advanced
3- Meets Expectations
2- Partially Mastery
1- Little or No Mastery
Which grading system does this scale represent?
Standards based grading
How do standards space grading systems support, struggling students compared to other
common grading systems?
By allowing students to redo lessons and assignments as many times as necessary
What is one difference between using criterion reference scoring and standard base grading
systems as opposed to using non-reference scoring?
Criterion-reference scoring measure students progress towards mastery, a specific criteria,
while norm-reference scoring measures progress related to percentiles.
What is a criticism of standards-based grading systems?
They do not reflect students, proficiency and soft skills, such as time management and
creativity
Which problematic assessment practice does standards-based grading help teachers avoid?
Tagging multiple standards
