Criterion-referenced tests are designed to find out whether a child has a set of skills, rather than how a child compares to other children of the same age (normed tests.) The test designers analyze the component parts of specific academic skills, such as number understanding, and then write test items that will measure whether the child has all the component parts of the skill. When you receive criterion referenced tests’ results for your students, you can use these results to aid instruction for your students in the following ways: Offer more support in the subject area for your student. For example, you can read material from the textbook in your class before he goes to the regular classroom. Criterion-referenced assessments are needs based, meaning the tests are created with what the students’ needs are. If a student really needs to improve their knowledge of proper nouns, then a test will be created on proper nouns.
Otherwise known as CRT, criterion referenced tests are designed to measure how well students have learned a certain body of knowledge or subject and the skills associated with such. In everyday situations, the most common examples of this test can be the multiple choice exams people take when they apply for a driver’s license. Thus a criterion-referenced test is a test that provides a basis for determining a candidate’s level of knowledge and skills in relation to a well-defined domain of content. Often one or more performance standards are set on the test score scale to aid in test score interpretation.
The criterion-referenced tests used to measure learning progress can also measure gaps in student learning. Preparing Students for the Structure of Any Test Teachers can help prepare students for both kinds standardized tests, both norm-referenced tests and criterion-referenced tests. A criterion-referenced test will use questions which were correctly answered by students who know the specific material. A norm-referenced test will use questions which were correctly answered by the “best” students and not correctly answered by the “worst” students (e.g. Criterion-referenced assessments are both formal and informal assessments, and are also used as diagnostic tools.
The score compares the student’s skills to a defined set of skills and a goal (criterion) for mastery. These assessments are administered before instruction and after instruction to measure a student’s skill growth. A test score is criterion-referenced if it is compared to a preset standard or level of achievement. Norm-referenced: measures broad skill areas, then ranks students with respect to how others (norm group) performed on the same test.
Students’ scores are reported. A criterion-referenced assessment is one that measures students’ success in reference to defined standards, or criteria. A criterion-referenced test is typically utilized in the classroom to determine how well students have mastered a particular curricular unit or standard and the students’ scores will reflect their level of mastery.
