Administered several times a year and is used to identify at risk students:

Not symmetrical distribution of scores:

The verbs (categorize, create, and design) describe which level of Bloom's Taxonomy?

_____establishes criteria for success, which indicates whether/not student scores at a sufficient level to meet standard

What are the 2 types of high stakes tests?

Used to inform day-to-day instructional decision-making; brief and frequently administered

The extent to which results from a test correlate with a student's future performance on another measure:

Test score that has not been manipulated, numeric total of correct responses:

The verbs: (explain, summarize, and estimate) are used to describe which level of cognition?

Standardized test that allows the teacher to compare the performance of 1 student to many students who took same test:

Illustrates way that test scores among individuals in population, how scores typically deviate from mean

Use of assessment to make decisions that are prominent educational, financial, or social impact

Degree to which high stakes tests actually measure academic standards?

Which of the following is NOT a threat to internal validity?

Calculated by computing mean raw score on test obtained by norm group of students who are a specific age

Matching, true/false, and matching questions are examples of:

Allows for direct assessment of academic skills ( freq administered, standardized, short in length)

The verbs: (diagram, differentiate, and outlines) describe which level of Bloom's Taxonomy?

Calculated by computing the mean raw score on a test obtained by a norm group of students who are in a specific grade

The spread of scores around the mean (calculated by taking square root of variance)

What term is defined as a SD of a distribution of error scores:

Method of tabulation data for simple analysis; organizes students' scores:

Only consists of the middle 50% of the distribution; find midpoint of distribution, then find upper and lower median:
