A scaled score is a standardized numerical representation of a student's performance on an assessment, adjusted to account for the difficulty of the questions or tasks presented.
Scaled scores provide a more accurate and comparable measure of a student's abilities across different test versions or administrations.
This scoring method allows educators and policymakers to assess student performance and growth over time, making it easier to track progress and identify areas for improvement.
Scaled scores help ensure that assessments provide a fair representation of student achievement regardless of the specific questions presented.
Student achievement refers to the academic progress and accomplishments of students, measured through assessments and reflecting their learning outcomes.
