6. CXC System of Examinations
Criterion Referenced VS Norm Referenced
At CXC, we develop criterion referenced assessments. These assessments are designed to measure candidate performance against a predetermined set of objectives, criteria or standards.
Unlike norm-referenced, we do not measure against the cohort.
Criterion referenced
Measures a student’s performance based on mastery of a specific set of standards.
Norm Referenced
Measures a student’s performance in comparison to the performance of a larger group.
