ComputationAnswer Keys

• Version 1
• Begin on page 39 of manual
• Version 2
• See colored folder for hand-written keys
• Answers and point values

14
ComputationScoring Rules

• Points are awarded for the number of correct
  digits in the answer
• Examples (3 points possible)

• 285
• - 43
• 242 3 points
• 285
• - 43
• 222 2 points

15
ComputationScoring Rules (cont.)

• Unnecessary Zeros
• Not wrong, but no points awarded
• Example
• Student answer 03
• Correct answer 3
• 1 point for the 3

16
ComputationScoring Rules (cont.)

• Division with remainders
• Answer should be R
• R is place holder, no points
• Example 4 points
• 104R2

• Same is true for the decimal point and the
  fraction bar
