EXAMINATION 2026 QUESTIONS WITH
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ hypervisor.
Answer: An expensive application used to improve network performance
without having to physically change the network; runs virtual machines.
◍ 3G Networks.
Answer: 384 kbps speed
◍ Instruction is most effective when.
Answer: 1. Directed toward a clearly defined set of intended learning
outcomes.2. The methods and materials of instruction are congruent with the
outcomes to be achieved.3. The instruction is designed to fit the
characteristics and needs of the students.4. Instructional decisions are based
on information that is meaningful, dependable, and relevant.5. Students are
periodically informed concerning their learning progress.6. Remediation is
provided for students not achieving the intended learning.7. Instructional
effectiveness is periodically reviewed and the intended learning outcomes
and instruction modified as needed.
◍ Role of Instructional Objectives.
Answer: objectives provide a description of the intended learning outcomes
in performance terms—that is, in terms of the types of performance students
can demonstrate to show that they have achieved the knowledge,
understanding, or skill described by the objective.By describing the
performance that we are willing to accept as evidence of achievement, we
provide a focus for instruction, student learning, and assessment (objectives
keep all three in close harmony)
,◍ Core Router.
Answer: A more powerful router that is used to optimize high volume
transmissions; aggregate data from business and transmit the data directly to
the Internet backbone.
◍ Rating Scale.
Answer: provides an opportunity to mark the degree to which an element is
present. The scale for rating is typically based on one of the following:
frequency with which an action is performed e.g., always, sometimes,
neverthe general quality of a performance e.g., outstanding, above average,
average, below averageset of descriptive phrases that indicates degrees of
acceptable performance e.g., completes task quickly, slow in completing
task, cannot complete task without help.
◍ Fountain Model (SDLC).
Answer: Like the waterfall model, but this one allows for going back to
previous steps.
◍ Formal Assessments.
Answer: (administered formally in the classroom) large-scale assessments at
the school, district, state, national, and international levels; standardized
tests
◍ Guidelines for Effective and Fair Grading.
Answer: Inform students at the beginning of instruction what grading
procedures will be used. Base grades on student achievement, and
achievement only. Base grades on a wide variety of valid assessment data.
When combining scores for grading, use a proper weighting technique.
Select an appropriate frame of reference for grading.Review borderline
cases by reexamining all achievement evidence.
◍ Fourth generation computer languages (4GL).
Answer: software tools that help reduce the amount of procedural
knowledge that is needed about how computers operate and lets end users
create programs as needed; SQL is a 4GL.
,◍ The Revised Taxonomy of Educational Objectives.
Answer: provides a useful framework for (1) identifying a wide array of
intended learning outcomes; (2) planning instructional activities; (3)
planning assessment methods; and (4) checking on the alignment among
objectives, instruction, and assessment.
◍ Percentile Rank.
Answer: indicates relative position in a group in terms of the percentage of
group members scoring at or below a given score.
◍ Informal Assessments.
Answer: (administered informally in the classroom)Observational measures;
teacher conducted assessments; assessment support materials; and other
achievement, aptitude, interest, and personality measures used in and for
education.
◍ Evil Twin.
Answer: a fraudulent Wi-Fi access point that appears to be legitimate
◍ 1G Networks.
Answer: The first cellular mobile networks; could only transmit analog
signals on radio frequency.
◍ Elementary and Secondary Education Act 1994 (ESEA). Reauthorized.
Answer: Challenging standards were set for student achievement and to
develop and administered to "all" students and required that all schools
make "Adequate Yearly Practice". It also included "special needs students"
in the definition of all students. States were required to set challenging
standards for student achievement, and develop and administer assessments
to measure student progress towards those standards. Federal laws such as
ESEA and IDEA can be seen as legislated attempts to 'raise the bar.'
◍ Factors That Lower the Reliability of Test Scores.
Answer: 1. Test scores are based on too few items. (Remedy: Use longer
tests or accumulate scores from several short tests.)2. Range of scores is too
limited. (Remedy: Adjust item difficulty to obtain larger spread of scores.)3.
, Testing conditions are inadequate. (Remedy: Arrange opportune time for
administration and eliminate interruptions, noise, and other disrupting
factors.)4. Scoring is subjective. (Remedy: Prepare scoring keys and follow
carefully when scoring essay answers.)
◍ Content-Referenced Interpretation.
Answer: Essentially the same meaning as domain-referenced interpretation
when the content domain is broadly defined to include tasks representing
both content and process (i.e., reactions to the content). This term is
declining in use and being replaced by criterion-referenced interpretation.
◍ Selection Item: True- False.
Answer: typically used to measure the ability to identify whether statements
of fact are correct. The basic format is simply a declarative statement that
the student must judge as true or false.
◍ system-oriented (system evaluation).
Answer: which is the ability of an information system to discriminate
between files or data that are relevant to a user query, and those which are
not relevant.
◍ Product Assessment.
Answer: Result of a performance assessment that becomes the focus of the
assessment.
◍ Re-authorization of Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)
called Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) 2015.
Answer: Holds all students to high academic standards, prepares all students
for success in college and career, provides more kids access to high-quality
preschool, guarantees steps are taken to help students, and their school
improve, reduces the burden of testing while maintaining annual
information for parents and students, promotes local innovation and invests
in what works
◍ Java.
Answer: An open-standard software language used for client-server internal
