A Comparison of Through-Year Cumulative Scoring Methods

• In Event: Student Growth

Abstract

We compare eight methods for producing cumulative scores from a through-year assessment. We examine whether a cumulative score might perform as well as a single EOY summative score, both in terms of measuring short-term and long-term learning. We discuss the trade-offs of cumulative scores.
