standards-based
Measured against criteria
Standards-based describes approaches, systems, or assessments built around established criteria or benchmarks.
In education, standards-based grading or learning measures student achievement against specific learning objectives rather than comparing students to each other: The district adopted a standards-based curriculum aligned with state requirements.
The term appears in technical contexts too, where standards-based protocols or designs follow agreed-upon specifications for compatibility and interoperability.
