MidYIS (Middle Years Information System) assesses a student's cognitive abilities, including verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, and mathematical reasoning. It aims to provide insights into a student's potential academic performance and identify areas where they may need additional support or challenge.
The Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) in Ontario typically assesses students on math and language skills based on the curriculum expectations for their grade level. The assessments are designed to measure students' understanding, problem-solving abilities, and communication skills in these subjects.
Conventional assessment refers to traditional methods of evaluating student learning, such as exams, quizzes, and essays. These assessments are typically standardized and focus on measuring knowledge and skills based on set criteria.
How do they measure what?
Meters measure length, liters measure capacity, and kilograms measure weight.

it's not a very good score.....

The Midyis score is standardized, so 100 is average. Somewhere around 116 would be one standard deviation about average, so that suggests 120 is just above the cusp to be "above average". However, that is just observed score and there is a huge margin of error in such assessments as trying to measuring attainment in the brain is complex. So in reality, what the child actually knows will be somewhere between 108-132 midyis score. From the midyis score alone, it does seem reasonable to ensure that student is prepared to go through university.
Hi! An average MidYIS score is 100 so 154 is an extremely good standard. If your child keeps up the effort in achieving their obviously high potential they should be well on their way to A/A* s in GCSE and A-Level. It's highly likely that your child will be accepted into Oxford University if their obvious talent is nurtured and nourished throughout their school years. They are likely to be in the top 1% of the population so maybe MENSA would be an option?

Apparently the mean score is 100, and the standard deviation is 15. This means that 67% of the population will score between 85 and 115. Higher scores are better. The company selling the midyis system will give, as well as scores, predictions of what the child should be able to achieve at GCSE level. Schools can then use this to a) track a child's progress compared with their theoretical capability predicted by the test, and b) to see if they have "added value" by raising the child to achieve more (or less) than predicted.
The skills and competencies required for baking a cake are simple. They are the ability to read and follow the directions in a recipe. They also require one to be able to accurately measure the ingredients called for.
Age is not a factor in criterion deficiency. Criterion deficiency is a secondary measure used to assess job performance skills as well as competency skills.
What is the factor in an experiment that you measure and that may change because of what you are testing
IQ tests and achievement tests measure different things in learners. Achievement tests only measure what the student has learned in a particular subject while IQ tests measure how well you will do in the world.
One effective way to measure STEM skills in educational settings is through assessments that evaluate students' abilities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These assessments can include tests, projects, and real-world applications that demonstrate students' problem-solving, critical thinking, and analytical skills in these areas. Additionally, observing students' engagement in hands-on activities, teamwork, and communication skills can provide valuable insights into their STEM proficiency.
