Benchmark Assessment

Assess how your students are performing compared to expected benchmarks

During elementary school years, it is important to determine our students’ performance in an objective and standardized way. This task falls on official tests, which, due to their low frequency, limit our capacity to intervene.

Using our tool, we can perform reliable periodic summative assessments. Moreover, our large educational community enables us to compare our situation with that of other schools that have similar profiles.

BENCHMARK ASSESSMENT

ConMat Math Knowledge Tests

ConMat is a competencies test created by Innovamat with the aim of helping teachers find their students’ level of mathematical knowledge both at the beginning and at the end of the year. They not only test content – like other tests that already exist – but also the mathematical processes.

The Tests

Classification of questions, content, samples, and reports

Each ConMat question focuses on specific content and a cognitive domain. In this way, the reports can inform teachers of students’ prior knowledge of the 5 content strands as well as the different cognitive domains.

Organizing the test into cognitive domains allows us to differentiate the questions aimed at content knowledge from those that also require practicing different mathematical processes. The ConMat tests are made up of the following sections:

Content types

Concepts Procedures Processes
Grade 3

Question: How many vertices and edges does this prism have?
Content: Space and Shape (Identify vertices and edges in a polyhedron)

Grade 5

Question: A person who is facing point A turns to face point B. How many degrees have they turned to the right?

Content: Measurement (Understand that a right angle measures 90°)

Grade 4

Question: What is the answer to this operation?
1,000 – 251 = 

Content: Number and Operations (Subtract using any strategy of your choice)

Grade 6

Question:Four people look at this construction from a different perspective. What is the image that corresponds to person 2?

Content: Space and Shape (Represent the side and top views of a 3D shape)

Grade 3

Question:We can make 6 different numbers in a 3-column abacus using 2 beads. Which number is missing?

Content: Number and Operations (Represent numbers using the abacus)

Grade 6

Question:Four students worked out this addition 18.80 + 1.45 by jumping along the Number Line. Which student made a mistake?

Content: Number and Operations (Add any two decimals by jumping along the Number Line)

Detailed Performance Report

Entire-class results (broken down into content blocks and cognitive fields) in relation to other classes in the school (if applicable), and with other schools that use Innovamat.

Individual student results for each class (broken down into content blocks and cognitive fields).

Test Sample

Despite the fact that the test questions are multiple choice, they help students to apply their knowledge of mathematical contents and processes.

Here are some examples of the types of questions your students will get for each level.

The Validity of ConMat Tests

In collaboration with experts from the Biomedical Research Institute of Bellvitge.

The evidence supports that ConMat exhibits psychometric validity—that is, it is a reliable instrument for measuring students’ mathematical competence.
