Marking Guidelines The Grade 12 Consumer Mathematics Standards Test: Written Test Marking Guide (January 2010) is based on the outcomes and standards found in Senior 4 Consumer Mathematics: A Foundation for Implementation (2004). The recommended procedure for scoring student responses is as follows: 1. Read the Written Test Marking Guide.

2. Study the student samples provided and the rationales for the allotted scores.

3. Determine the mark for the student’s response by comparing its features with the Written Test Marking Guide descriptions. The descriptions and samples only typify a student’s response to a given question; an exact match is not anticipated.

Irregularities in Standards Tests During the administration of standards tests, supervising teachers may encounter irregularities. Markers may also encounter irregularities during local marking sessions. Appendix A provides examples of such irregularities as well as procedures to follow to report irregularities. If a scoring sheet is marked with “0” and/or “NR” only (e.g., student was present but did not attempt any questions) please document this on the Irregular Test Booklet Report.

Farid and Kira were hoping to buy their dream house. A) Explain why financial institutions advise potential homebuyers to keep their

Gross Debt Service Ratio (GDSR) under 32%. (1 mark)

Sample answers: • So that homeowners have money for living expenses. • Financial institutions want to avoid mortgage

foreclosures.

B) A financial institution would not approve the couple’s mortgage application even though their Gross Debt Service Ratio (GDSR) was 30.3%. Explain why they were refused. (1 mark) Sample answers: • They are too heavy in debt. • Their potential debt load is too high. • They have a poor credit rating. • This would leave them strained financially, as they are close to the

maximum percent allowed.

The reason they weren't approved is because 30.3%is just about 32% percent so they don't think theycan pay for the house.

The reason financial institutions advise peopleto keep their GDSR under 32% because if higher theywon't be able to pay for it.

Fred and Barney are arguing over who performed better on the mathematics exam. Fred received a mark of 70% and Barney scored in the 70th percentile. Barney believes he performed better. In your opinion, who had the better result? Justify your answer. Sample answer: It cannot be determined until we know Barney’s individual score on the test or Fred’s percentile rank. All we know is that Barney did better than 70% of the rest of his class.

The life expectancy of a Mipod battery follows a normal distribution. The mean life expectancy of a Mipod battery is 18 months with a standard deviation of 3 months.

Life Expectancy of Mipod Battery A) Find the percent of Mipod batteries that will last between one and two years.

Answer: 13.5% + 34% + 34% + 13.5% = 95%

Note to marker: accept 96%

B) Explain, with reference to the normal curve, if it is possible to expect your

Mipod battery to work after 30 months. (1 mark)

Sample answer: It can happen but the chance of it happening is low because it is more than 3 standard deviations above the mean.

IRREGULARITIES IN STANDARDS TESTS

A GUIDE FOR LOCAL MARKING During the marking of standards tests, markers have occasionally encountered test booklets in which there have been irregularities. The following list provides some examples of such irregularities:

• completely different penmanship in the same test booklet • incoherent work with correct answers • notes from a teacher indicating how he or she has assisted students during the test

administration • student offering that he or she received teacher assistance for a question • student submitting work on unauthorized paper • evidence of plagiarism or cheating • disturbing or offensive content

If a student’s mark on the test is 0% because he or she answered with all non-responses (“NR”), all inappropriate responses (“0”), or a combination of both, please complete an Irregular Test Booklet Report to confirm that the result is accurate (i.e., the student was not, in fact, exempted or had an excused absence). Please note that student comments or responses indicating that the student may be at personal risk of being harmed or of harming others are personal safety issues. This type of student response requires an immediate and appropriate follow-up action at the school level. In this case, please ensure the Department is made aware that a follow-up has taken place by completing an Irregular Test Booklet Report. Except in the case of cheating or plagiarism where the result is a standards test mark of 0%, it is the responsibility of the division or the school to determine how they will proceed with irregularities. Once an irregularity has been confirmed, the marker prepares an Irregular Test Booklet Report documenting the situation, the people contacted, and the follow-up. The original copy of this report is to be retained by the local jurisdiction and a copy is to be sent to the Instruction, Curriculum and Assessment Branch along with all other test materials.
