the grades they get on tests, homework, etc.
- Evaluate which students are doing well and which ones need more attention
- Help guide parents and teachers communication on the needs of the student.

Norm-referenced and criterion-referenced grading
![Page 14: Grading](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813dd0550346895da798f3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Norm-referenced and criterion-referenced grading
I. NORM-REFERENCED GRADING
Students are evaluated in relation to each other( top 10% get an A, next 30% get B’s).
![Page 15: Grading](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813dd0550346895da798f3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Norm-referenced and criterion-referenced grading
I. NORM-REFERENCED GRADING CONT.
Advantages: - Easy on the teacher- Groups students to see which ones can move on to
higher levels in given subjectsDisadvantages:- Grades based on relation not personal achievement. - Pins students against each other and discourages
collaboration.

Norm-referenced and criterion-referenced grading
II. CRITERION-REFERENCED GRADING
- measures students test scores based on pre-determined performance levels (95%-100% is an A, and 85%-89% is a B+)
![Page 17: Grading](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813dd0550346895da798f3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Norm-referenced and criterion-referenced grading
II. CRITERION-REFERENCED CONT.Advantages: - Students grades aren’t based on each others
performances- Encourages collaboration between students
Disadvantages:- Teachers need experience to determine what’s a fair
scale.- They can become more like Norm-referenced grading.
