What do the star ratings mean?
In order for a progress to show on the teacher view a pupil needs to get at least 1 star for the times table (e.g. the 1 times table).
In order for a pupil to get 1 star on a times table they need to get 3 stars on at least 4 multiplication facts in that times table (e.g. 1×2, 1×3, 1×4 & 1×5).
In order for a pupil to get 3 stars in a multiplication fact they have to get a certain score. This score is calculated from their answers to the questions and by factoring in a bunch of variables like:
What type of question it was. A fill in the blank question contributes more to the score than a telegraphed table question.
When the questions were answered. A question’s contribution to score decays over time based on Ebbinghaus’ forgetting curve)
The year group of the pupil. A pupil in a higher year group has to give provide more evidence that they have understood the fact.
Have they answered the same fact correctly in the previous 7 days. If there is proof of consistent correctness they get a score boost.
