1.1. Predictive evidence will try and predict how well test takers will do in future placements and will look at their behaviors.
1.2. Concurrent evidence are measures that can be administered at the same time as the measure to be validated.
2. Content Validity Evidence
2.1. Inspecting test questions to see if they cover what the teacher wants on the test.
3. Criterion-Related Validity Evidence
4. Construct Validity Evidence
4.1. If a test that has a relationship to other information relates to some logical explanation.
5. Validity
6. Validity and reliability are both very important tools when assessing students. Reliability refers to the consistency of the rank for the same individuals who take the test more than once. Validity asks the question if the test measures what it is supposed to measure.

8. Test-Retest
8.1. Estimating reliability between 2 given tests.
9. Alternate Forms
9.1. When two equivalent forms of a test are given to a group of students. They can gather an estimate of the reliability of the scores from the tests.
10. Reliability
11. Internal Consistency
11.1. When a test is supposed to measure a single basic concept, a student who gets one item right should get others right. Items should correlate with one another.
