Reliability
A teacher administers the same math test to the same group of students twice and finds similar scores, indicating that the test produces consistent results over time.
What is test-retest reliability?
A teacher reviews a rubric to ensure that it accurately assesses student performance based on defined criteria, aligning with the learning objectives.
What is assessment validation?
A writing assessment is graded by multiple teachers using the same rubric, and their scores are closely aligned, demonstrating consistency in grading
What is inter-rater reliability?
This type of evidence assesses the accuracy of inferences made from test scores, ensuring that conclusions drawn about students are valid.
What is inference-accuracy assessment?
A standardized test is given in two different forms, and students score similarly on both tests, showing that different versions of the test yield equivalent results.
What is alternate-form reliability?
A fitness assessment is scrutinized to determine if it adequately measures physical fitness for its intended purpose, ensuring the assessment is appropriate for the context in which it is used.
What is fitness-for-purpose evidence?
An assessment consistently measures the same construct across various contexts and populations, indicating that it is stable and dependable.
What is internal consistency reliability?
A group of educators discusses how well an assessment aligns with its intended purpose and the decisions made based on the results, forming a comprehensive argument about its validity.
What is interpretation validity argument?
A school district analyzes the decisions made based on test results and finds that similar scores lead to the same decisions for students, indicating that the assessment produces consistent outcomes.
What is decision-consistency estimates?
This type of evidence assesses the accuracy of inferences made from test scores, ensuring that conclusions drawn about students are valid.
What is interpretation validity argument?
