NOTE: Criterion-referenced: An assessment that is aligned with a state's academic standards and thus intended primarily to measure students' performance with respect to those standards, rather than to the performance of their peers nationally. Norm-referenced: An assessment designed primarily to compare the performance of students with that of their peers nationally. Such tests do not generally measure how students perform in relation to a state's own academic standards. Augmented norm-referenced or hybrid: An assessment that incorporates elements of both criterion-referenced assessments and norm-referenced assessments. Typically, selected items from a norm-referenced assessment are combined with additional items written specifically to assess state content standards not covered by a traditional norm-referenced assessment. Performance: An assessment that requires students to perform a task to demonstrate their knowledge.
