QUESTION #6757
Question 1
A teacher preparing a summative end-of-unit test for a chapter on climate change that received 150 minutes of instructional time out of 500 total minutes for the unit wants to allocate marks proportionally using a Table of Specification. If the total test is worth 50 marks, how many marks should be allocated to climate change content?
Correct Answer Explanation
Using the Table of Specification formula: Percentage of instruction time = (150/500) × 100 = 30%. Mark allocation = 30% of 50 = 15 marks. The Table of Specification ensures that the proportion of test marks mirrors the proportion of instructional time devoted to each content area.
