STAR Assessment [star]

Question 1

Which of the following best describes the core principle of a computer-adaptive test (CAT) like the STAR Assessment?

The test presents all students with the same set of questions in a different, randomized order. The test adjusts the difficulty of subsequent questions based on a student's previous answers. The test allows students to choose the subject area they feel most confident in to begin the assessment. The test is graded by a computer algorithm, providing instantaneous pass or fail results.

Correct Answer:

The test adjusts the difficulty of subsequent questions based on a student's previous answers.

Question 2

A student taking a STAR Math assessment seems to be guessing randomly on several questions. As the test administrator, what is the most appropriate immediate action?

Stop the test and ask the student to start over from the beginning. Tell the student the correct answers for the questions they are struggling with. Quietly observe to see if the behavior continues and gently encourage the student to do their best on each question. Log the student out of the test and schedule them for a different day.

Correct Answer:

Quietly observe to see if the behavior continues and gently encourage the student to do their best on each question.

Question 3

During a STAR Reading administration, a student raises their hand and says they cannot answer a question because they don't know the meaning of a word in an answer choice. What should the administrator do?

Define the word for the student so they can answer the question. Advise the student to use their best judgment, select an answer, and move to the next question. Read the entire question and all answer choices aloud to the student. Pause the test and provide the student with a dictionary.

Correct Answer:

Advise the student to use their best judgment, select an answer, and move to the next question.

Question 4

Which statement is true regarding the administration of STAR assessments?

Students are allowed to use personal calculators on all sections of the STAR Math test. The test administrator is required to read all questions aloud for the STAR Reading test. A monitor password may be required to start the test, depending on school or district settings. The overall test has a strict time limit, and students are logged out automatically when it is reached.

Correct Answer:

A monitor password may be required to start the test, depending on school or district settings.

Question 5

A new student is taking their first STAR assessment. If no prior data exists for this student, how does the computer-adaptive algorithm typically select the first question?

It presents a very easy question to build the student's confidence. It allows the student to select their own starting difficulty level. It presents a question of mid-level difficulty based on the student's grade level. It starts with a series of non-scored vocabulary questions to gauge ability.

Correct Answer:

It presents a question of mid-level difficulty based on the student's grade level.
