Scoring scales



Scores for assignments: 

5 = Highly Proficient (work shows a high degree of accuracy, consistency, and goes beyond expectations of the description of the standard in its quality/complexity).
4 = Proficient (work shows accuracy, consistency, and responds to all criteria requested in the description of the standard).
3 = Nearly proficient (work shows accuracy, but lacks consistency. Some criteria might be lacking).
2 = Developing (work shows some understanding of the topic, skill. Much more work needs to be done to achieve proficiency).
1 = No understanding (work shows very little to a total lack of understanding. This can include a misread of the assignment).
Mis = Missing work (missing score negatively impacts a student's overall grade, and will mainly be apply to academic behavior skills).
NE = No evidence (neutral score that reflects usually a missing assignment or a missing answer which causes a lack of evidence to assess a particular skill)g (work shows very little to a total lack of understanding. This can include a misread of the assignment).


Athough student’s work is assessed with 5 level of proficiency, 4j limits proficiency report to 4 level of proficiency: HiPr, Prof., NrPr., NtPr.  IE = no evidence. 

5:00 - 4.20:       Highly Proficient - HiPr.
4.19 - 3.40:       Proficient - Prof.
3:39 - 2.70:       Nearly Proficient - NrPr.
2.69 - 0.02:       Developing / Not Proficient - NtPr
0.01 - 0:00:       Insufficient Evidence - IE

Modes of calculation:
Standards evaluated in Power Law means that the final score will be based on the trend of the results for that particular
standard. The score is calculated on an assumption of what the next performance of the student should be based on the
trend exhibited through previous performance.

Value of a standard
Each standard has a value based on the scopes of skills it requires (.5, 1, 1.5, or 2)
