WGU D184 STANDARD BASED ASSESSMENT
90 COMPLETE TEST PAPER WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS
◉ Mounting Evidence.
Answer: Use multiple indicators to find patterns of student
achievement and determine summative scores
◉ Linear trend.
Answer: Math model in which it's assumed there is a steady and
equal increase in learning over time.
◉ Curvilinear Trend.
Answer: Assumption that when initially learning something,
students demonstrate rather large jumps but over time. Increase
flattens out
◉ Average.
Answer: The assumption that no learning occurs from assessment to
assessment
( looks like a straight line on a bar graph)

◉ Error score.
Answer: The part of the observed score that is due to factors other
than the students level of understanding
◉ Best fit model.
Answer: The model with the least amount of error ( in regards to
mathematical models)
◉ 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
