A proficiency scale includes statements of what students need to know and be able to do for a standard that sets out a logical progression of learning over time. Student performance is represented by a proficiency level as determined by learning outcomes. Correlating student performance to a proficiency scale: • Level 4 – An example of application that is in-depth and goes beyond instruction of the standard • Level 3 – Learning target/standard as stated in the common core • Level 2 – Prerequisite skills and knowledge required to meet the learning target/standard • Level 1 – Partial understanding of the simpler ideas and processes (Ex: English Language Learners and students with IEPs or 504s) • Level 0 – Alternative curriculum required Level 4 In addition to Level 3, in-depth inferences and applications that goes beyond instruction to the Example Activities standard. The student will: • • • 3.5 Level 3 Students will analyze a real world application and come up with conclusions not discussed in class. Example Activity: Students will prove the formula for the summation of a geometric series. Example Activity: Students will analyze real-world problems using the Taylor series. In addition to Level 3 performance, in-depth inferences and applications with partial success. The student will: Students will solve problems by selection and evaluation of the correct sequence or series. The student exhibits no major errors or omissions. 2.5 Level 2 No major errors or omissions regarding 2.0 content and partial knowledge of the 3.0 content. There are no major errors or omissions regarding the simpler details and processes as the student will: 18 [Mathematics: Pre-Calculus] Grade Level: High School However, the student exhibits major errors or omissions regarding the more complex ideas and processes. 1.5 Partial knowledge of the 2.0 content but major errors or omissions regarding the 3.0 content. Level 1 With help, a partial understanding of some of the simpler details and processes and some of the more complex ideas and processes. Level 0 Even with help, no understanding or skill demonstrated. .5 With help, a partial understanding of the 2.0 content but not the 3.0 content. 19
