  • Test Scores Explanation for Parents and Teachers: Youtube Video Script by Lara Langelett July 2019 1
    Test Scores Explanation for Parents and Teachers: YouTube Video Script By Lara Langelett July 2019 1 Introduction: Hello Families and Teachers. My name is Lara Langelett and I would like to teach you about how to read your child’s or student’s test scores. The purpose of this video message is to give you a better understanding of standardized test scores and to be able to apply it to all normed assessment tools. First I will give a definition of what the bell curve is by using a familiar example. Then I will explain the difference between a percentile rank and percentage. Next, I will explain Normed-Referenced Standard test scores. In addition, the MAPs percentile rank and the RIT scores will be explained. Finally, I will explain IQ scores on the bell curve. 2 Slide 1: Let’s get started: here is a bell curve; it is shaped like a bell. 3 Slide 2: To understand the Bell Curve, we will look at a familiar example of basketball players in the U.S.A. Everyone, on this day, who plays basketball fits into this bell curve around the United States. I’m going to emphasis “on this day” as this is important piece information of for explaining standardized scores. 4 Slide 3: On the right side of the bell curve we can section off a part of the bell curve (2.1 % blue area). Inside this section are people who play basketball at the highest skill level, like the U.S. Olympic basketball team. These athletes are skilled athletes who have played basketball all their life, practice on a daily basis, have extensive knowledge of the game, and are at a caliber that the rest of the basketball population have not achieved.

  • The Relevance of Standardized College Entrance Exams for Low SES High School Students Regina Deil-Amen and Tenisha Lashawn Tevis
    DEIL-AMEN & TEVIS / College Entrance Exams 141 The Review of Higher Education Winter 2010, Volume 33, No. 2, pp. 141–175 Copyright © 2009 Association for the Study of Higher Education All Rights Reserved (ISSN 0162-5748) Circumscribed Agency: The Relevance of Standardized College Entrance Exams for Low SES High School Students Regina Deil-Amen and Tenisha LaShawn Tevis For the past half century, the U.S. school system has functioned as a highly rationalized and vertically integrated mechanism for socializing and sorting students into the existing social and economic structure. As educa- tional hierarchies expanded to increase access to postsecondary education, so reliance on the college entrance examination also expanded, with both meritocratic and stratifying consequences. The initial rise in the use of col- lege entrance exams provided an “objective” mechanism to counteract the widespread discrimination in college admissions processes (Lemann, 2000). However, critics have since exposed such exams, particularly the SAT, as weak predictors of college academic success, particularly for nontraditional students (Sedlacek, 2004); and the lower average scores of African American and Latino students on these exams continue to present daunting obstacles for them, especially in the form of barriers to admission to selective colleges (Hacker, 1992; Hedges & Nowell, 1998; Jencks & Phillips, 1998; Phillips, Brooks-Gunn, Duncan, Klebanov, & Crane, 1998; Steele, 1997).

However, in eastern and central Europe there is a particular urgency about the debate as newly independent states review and reform their education systems in the light of changing social and economic conditions. Slovenia is currently in the middle of a development programme which will eventually affect all parts of its education system. In July 1995, a major feature of the programme became reality when the first Matura, or graduation examination, was successfully conducted on a national scale.
