4. Score Range vs. Content Range
The first chart shows the range of grade equivalent scores students are able to obtain on the various levels of TABE 9/10.
The 2nd chart shows the content range targeted by each of the levels (shown on the previous slide). If a student scores plus or minus two full grade equivalent scores from the content target range, good educational practice suggests that the student be retested on a higher or lower level of the test.
Here is an example: If a student scores a 9.9+ on Form M on the pretest, the test was too easy for the student. That student has obtained the highest possible score on Form M.
No valuable diagnostic data can be obtained from the pre-test, because the student will demonstrate mastery on all objectives-keep in mind that mastery of all Level M objectives does not mean proficiency in that content areas. It only means that the student has mastered content targeted at the 4.0 to 5.9 grade level range.
If Form M is given as a post-test, no matter how much improvement the student has made, the post-test cannot show growth. If the student is not retested with the appropriate Level D, they student should definitely be post-tested with Level D so scale score growth can be demonstrated. Even though the student may be able to demonstrate scale score growth, they cannot show improvement in the objectives, because they have already demonstrated 100% mastery on the Level M objectives. Objective mastery data will probably be lower on the post-test, because the content is more difficult. This can be demoralizing to the student.
