FINAL GRADE
*Primary Trait scoring
It is focuses in one aspect or criterion of a task and a learner’s performance is evaluated on
only one trait. Scores are based on one or more specific aspects of performance that are
essential for the successful completion of the tested task.
*Multiple-Trait Scoring
Is requires an essay test or performance task is scored on more that one aspects, with scoring
criteria in place so that they are consistent with the prompt .
Example: scoring criteria for writing performance may include abilities to present
argument clearly, to organized one’s thoughts, and to present accurate
language usage through grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
What are the different types of test scores?
Grading methods communicate the teachers evaluative appraisal
of learners’ level of achievement or performance in attest or
task, in grading. The scores can take the form of any of the
following.
Raw score
Percentage scores, and
Derived scores. Under this scores are grades that the based on
criterion-referenced and norm-referenced grading system.
1. Raw score
The basic score on any test is the raw score, which is simply the
number of questions a student answered correctly. A raw score is
an unaltered measurement.
Example:
let's say you took a test in class and scored 85. This is a raw
score, an unaltered measurement of how you did. You scored
85. A raw data set is a collection of raw scores from all the
tests. To continue the example, your raw score was 85, so the
raw data set would be the entire class's scores.
2.Percentage score
The percentage is a Mathematical quantity which is written out of a total of 100. The symbol used to
represent the percentage is “%”. This symbol is used to represent the denominator value is 100. The
percentage can be written in the form of fractions or decimals.
A percentage is the standard way to differentiate the quantities. It gives information about the ratio
and proportions. This refers to the percent of items answered correctly in a test. It is also typically
converted to percent based on the total possible score. Percentage score has limitation because there
is no way of comparing the percentage correct obtained in a test with a different difficulty level.
Example:
A candidate takes a test made up of 40 questions and answers 34 of them correctly. Her
percentage of correct answers, or score, is the number of correct answers divided by the total
number of questions, multiplied by 100.
So,
35 ÷ 40 = 0.85
0.85 × 100 = 85
Note: that in a criterion-referenced grading system, students can help a fellow student in group
work without necessarily worrying about lowering his grade in that course. This is because the
criterion-referenced grading system does not require the mean (of the class) as basis for
distributing grades among the students.
Example:
In a class of 100 students using the table below, no one might get a grade of
excellent if no one scores 98 above or 85 above depending on the criterion used.
1.0 (Excellent) = 98-100 or 85-100
1.5 (Good) = 88-97 or 80-84
2.0 (Fair) = 75-87 or 70-79
3.0 (Poor/Pass) = 65-74 or 60-69
5.0 (Failure) = below 65 or below 60
