Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM)

Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) is an assessment method used to evaluate students' academic progress through brief, standardized tests that reflect what they learn in the classroom. In the context of general knowledge, CBM involves measuring students' understanding of subjects based on the curriculum they follow. These assessments are designed to be quick, frequent, and easy to administer, providing teachers with valuable data to tailor instruction and support students effectively. By regularly tracking progress, educators can identify areas where students excel or need additional help, ensuring that learning goals are met throughout the school year.
