The state passing rate is based on data collected from all Ohio
individuals taking the Praxis II in 2004-2005, regardless
of their status in a teacher education
program. Some test takers may be sophomores or juniors
in college. Others may be persons who are
not enrolled in a teacher education program.
The national passing rate is calculated at Ohio’s cut scores,
which are among the highest in the
nation. For instance, Ohio requires the highest cut
score in Principles of Learning and Teaching 5-9 (middle childhood)
and ranks second in Principles of Learning and Teaching in K-6 and
7-12 (early childhood adolescent/young adult).
|
Malone Praxis II average scores exceeded the national and state averages on all tests where comparison data was available. |
