Top Ten Myths about the SAT & ACT
•
4 likes•5,026 views
The document debunks 10 common myths about the ACT and SAT exams: 1. The SAT does not require Algebra II knowledge, as topics like matrices and logarithms are not tested. 2. The ACT is not designed to mimic high school curricula, as curricula are not standardized. 3. Test dates do not attract stronger or weaker students, as students are graded on a curve based on year-long data. 4. The best preparation time is 2-4 months of spaced study, not last-minute cramming close to the test date.

The document addresses common myths about college admissions tests and provides information about the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and AP exams. It dispels myths that prestigious colleges prefer the SAT, that colleges prefer well-rounded applicants over those deep in one area, and that test scores are more important than grades. It explains the purpose and timing of the PSAT, SAT, and ACT exams. For the class of 2017, it recommends also considering the ACT since it is unchanged while the SAT will be redesigned.
SAT vs. ACT
The document provides an overview of the differences between the SAT and ACT exams. It discusses the format, scoring, content, and style of questions for each test. The document suggests considering a student's time management skills, focus, logic/reasoning abilities, and interest in reading to determine which test may be a better fit. It recommends having students take practice tests of each to compare scores before deciding. Additional tips for preparation and options for test prep courses are also outlined.
What the New, Harder SAT Means For You
You have probably heard that the SAT is changing, but you may not know how or why. In this presentation, we would like to help demystify the new test, helping you to see that while it is a harder test, it’s a better, fairer test, and one that, with a bit of preparation and a lot of hard work, you can score very well on.
In this presentation, w'll cover what is in the new SAT, focusing especially on the way it’s changing from the current exam. Why and how the new SAT is likely to be more challenging to students; and, therefore, what you can do to prepare for this new test, because it’s coming soon…

Likert scale
1. The Likert scale is a psychometric scale commonly used in survey research that employs questionnaires with symmetric agree-disagree response options that indicate the intensity of respondents' feelings towards a statement.
2. A typical 5-point Likert item provides 5 response levels ranging from "Strongly disagree" to "Strongly agree" to capture the intensity of respondents' feelings.
3. Likert scale responses can be analyzed individually as ordinal data or summed to treat them as interval data, and different statistical tests can then be used depending on the analysis method.
SociologyExchange.co.uk Shared Resource
This document discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using secondary quantitative data sources, specifically official statistics, in sociological research. Some advantages include that official statistics are accessible, allow comparisons between social groups, and provide regular data at frequent intervals to study trends. However, there are also weaknesses like statistics being collected for other purposes so definitions may differ, and they are socially constructed so there could be some manipulation. The document also discusses ensuring secondary sources have representativeness, reliability, and validity for sociological insight.

Matching type
This document discusses two types of assessment items: matching items and supply items. Matching items require students to match items on the left with choices on the right. A variant is data sufficiency items which require students to determine relationships between items using symbols like >, <, or =. Supply items require students to write answers in blanks. While supply items typically test only recall, they can be constructed to test higher-order thinking by requiring students to provide synonyms rather than single correct answers. Both matching and supply items can test different levels of thinking depending on how they are designed.

El documento discute la educación liberadora propuesta por Paulo Freire y su énfasis en el desarrollo del pensamiento. Freire propuso que la educación debe permitir que las personas aprendan a leer no solo "la palabra", sino también "su mundo", desarrollando un conocimiento crítico para cuestionar su situación histórica y social. Esto implica un diálogo entre educadores y estudiantes donde ambos aprenden reflexionando y participando en la búsqueda de significados. Freire sostuvo que el desarrollo del pensamiento es clave para que
Wartbare Oberflächentests mit Open-Source-Software
Das Erstellen und Verwalten von Tests stellt im Software-Engineering eine komplexe und zeitaufwändige Disziplin dar. Nicht selten überschreiten die Aufwände, automatisierte Tests zu schreiben, den eigentlichen Implementierungsaufwand. Und noch viel schlimmer: Tests müssen gepflegt werden. Bei fachlichen oder technischen Änderungen der getesteten Software müssen auch die Tests angepasst werden.
Nils und Oliver zeigen am Beispiel von Oberflächentests wie man lesbare, wartbare und dokumentierte Tests schreiben kann, damit sich die Aufwände amortisieren. Sie zeigen dabei, dass man weder teure, kommerzielle Produkte einsetzen noch sämtliche Komponenten selbst implementieren muss. Durch die Kombination etablierter Java-Frameworks und -Tools ist es möglich, ein Test-Werkzeug zu schaffen, das das Erstellen und vor allem die Wartung von Oberflächentests extrem vereinfacht.

New SAT Business Planning
The document discusses the changes to the SAT in 2015 and the decisions graduating student classes will face regarding which tests to take. It notes that the last major SAT revision in 2005 led to increased test taking. Similarly, it anticipates the 2015 changes will lead to more students taking the SAT, ACT, or both in 2015 rather than their normal testing years. It also discusses different groups of students and their likely choices between the SAT, ACT, or both tests. Finally, it provides strategic recommendations for test preparation companies on how to position themselves and their services for different student segments.

It also includes average score and GPA data to help the student evaluate their performance. The report does not represent an official score sent to colleges.
Don't judge me...with standardize test
1) Standardized tests are used to evaluate students and determine things like college admission, but they do not reflect a student's full abilities or education.
2) While tests are designed by experts, a single test score does not capture everything a student has learned, especially when compared to things like class grades.
3) Schools use test scores to see where students need help and how to direct resources, but there is a risk they could focus only on improving test scores rather than student learning.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Top Ten Myths about the SAT & ACT
- 1. 10 ACT & SAT Myths A debunking presentation by Mark Alfano www.LuminaPrep.com
- 3. The ACT is a standardized test. Since high school math curricula are not standardized, the ACT does not mimic high school curricula. Myth 2: The ACT mimics high school curricula
- 4. It is widely believed that competition is stiffer on the ACT & SAT during certain months, and that students should therefore avoid testing during these months. This commonly-held view is false. Even if high-caliber students tend to take the SAT/ACT on a certain date, students are not graded against their cohort but against a whole year’s worth of data. Myth 3: Certain ACT & SAT dates attract stronger testers
- 5. For score maximization, we recommend 15 to 35 hours of preparation over 2 to 4 months. The data from educational psychology strongly support this position. Cognitive scientists discovered over half a century ago that “spaced learning” is significantly superior to cramming. 1 Two of the best study seasons are the summer after sophomore year and the summer after junior year . 1. Cain & Willey (1939). “The effect of spaced learning on the curve of retention.” Journal of Experimental Psychology , 25, 209-214. Myth 4: It’s best to study shortly before the test
- 6. 26 colleges recommend SAT subject tests. Of these, 23 do not let the ACT replace subject tests. (e.g. Northwestern, Stanford, and Emory) 37 colleges accept SAT subject tests. Of these, 36 do not let the ACT replace subject tests. (e.g. Oberlin, William & Mary, and Georgetown) Many people believe that the ACT replaces both the SAT I and the SAT subject tests (formerly known as SAT IIs). 44 colleges require SAT subject tests. Of these, 25 do not let the ACT replace subject tests. (e.g. Harvard, Princeton, Georgetown, and all UC schools) Note that some schools that officially require, recommend, or accept Subject Tests allow students to skip such tests provided they apply early action (e.g. Georgetown) or early decision (e.g. Dartmouth) . Myth 5: The ACT is a substitute for the SAT & SAT subject tests
- 7. The SAT is 70% longer than the PSAT. The SAT has an essay, while the PSAT does not. The SAT has more difficult math questions, including a “stumper” question. Myth 6: The PSAT is a good SAT predictor
- 9. The PLAN score report is even more imprecise than the PSAT score report. It distinguishes two types of verbal questions, two types of math questions, and one type of science question. A much more fine-grained analysis of students’ knowledge gaps can be obtained through the diagnostic systems of test prep companies. Super-diagonal Surface Area Volume 3-Dimensional Slope Reflections Midpoint Intercepts Graphing Distance Angles Triangles Quadrilaterals Circles 2-Dimensional Midpoint Four Regions Distance 1-Dimensional Geometry Sample Lumina Prep Geometry Taxonomy Myth 7: The PLAN/PSAT report is highly useful
- 11. The ACT and SAT are carefully designed by psychometric experts to be uniform across test administrations. Each question is carefully vetted multiple times and in multiple ways. Any variation in difficulty between months is purely random and accidental. There are no patterns of difficulty variance. Myth 9: Certain ACT & SAT test dates are harder than others
- 12. The Question-and-Answer (QAS) service is available for the October, January, and May tests. Students who sign up for QAS receive a copy of the test, a list of the correct answers, and a list of their own actual answers. While marginally helpful, QAS is not in itself a reason to take the test in October, January, or May. Myth 10: It’s important to take the SAT when the booklet is offered
