![]() ![]() The student’s score is calculated as 247/100=2.47. divided by (Weight1 + Weight2…) Example: For scores 3, 2, 3, 2, 1 with corresponding weights 40, 20, 17, 13, and 10 The algorithm used is (Score1*Weight1)+(Score2*Weight2). Weights are assigned by age allowing for more recent student performance to factor more greatly into the overall score, if desired. ![]() This mode orders recent scores from newest to oldest, and calculates a score, based on assigned weights. The student would receive a 2.5 (the average between 2 and 3). For example, if the student receives 8 scores for a learning target, then the median is the average of the 4th and 5th score. When there is an even number of scores, the median is the average of the two middle scores. The student receives a 2 because two is in the middle of the data set. For example, if there were only 7 scores for a learning target, but the number of recent scores to be considered is 9, then they would be ordered high to low, and the 4th score would be selected as the standards-based grade for the learning target. If there are fewer scores than the number of scores to consider, then the median of the available scores is selected. The student receives a 3 because 3 is in the middle of the data set. For example, if the number of recent scores to consider is 9, and a student has received at least nine scores for a learning target, then these scores are sorted high to low, and the middle value, the 5th score, is selected as the standards-based grade for this learning target. This mode uses the median, or middle score, of the sorted most recent scores. This helps ensure students are not negatively impacted by low scores when they are first introduced to a topic. The standards-based grading scale calculation modes are:Įxcept for Power Law and Highest, each mode requires that admins select how many of the most recent scores are included in the data set for the calculation. Main > Grading Scales > Create Standards-based Scale or The calculation mode is chosen when creating or editing a standards-based scale at In order to figure out their overall score for the learning target, admins must decide which of several calculation modes to use. In standards-based learning, students typically receive multiple scores for each learning target as they are assessed and re-assessed throughout the grading period. ![]()
