Direct linkSuto, Irenka; Williamson, Joanna; Ireland, Jo; Macinska, Sylwia – Research Papers in Education, 2023
Errors that occasionally manifest in examination papers and other educational assessment instruments can threaten reliability and validity. For example, a multiple choice question could have two correct response options, or a geography question containing an inaccurate map could be unanswerable. In this paper we explore this oft-neglected element…

Turner, John J. – School Science Review, 2018
This article endeavours to define how the application of incorrect or wrong solutions to mathematical equations or problems can be used to help stimulate students to perform a critical analysis of the mathematics being applied or the context of the equations used. The context of the application is discussed together with the specific learning…

Stambaugh, Laura A. – Journal of Music Teacher Education, 2016
Band and choral preservice teachers (N = 44) studied band and choral scores, listened to recordings of school ensembles, and identified errors in the recordings. Results indicated that preservice teachers identified significantly more errors when listening to recordings of their primary area (band majors listening to band, p = 0.045; choral majors…

Greatorex, Jackie; Bell, John F. – Research Papers in Education, 2008
It is particularly important that GCSE and A-level marking is valid and reliable as it affects the life chances of many young people in England. Current developments in marking technology are coinciding with potential changes in procedures to ensure valid and reliable marking. In this research the effectiveness of procedures to facilitate the…

Vanicek, Jiri – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2007
In the early stages of working with dynamical geometry environments, students make many more mistakes than if they thought out and implemented the same constructions on paper. Most Czech teachers have very little experience of doing geometry using computers. A methodology which could help them to teach students to avoid mistakes dependent on the…

Kessler, Jane; Van Ullen, Mary K. – Public Services Quarterly, 2006
A review of the help files in several major databases revealed that database vendors have begun including information on citing sources, which has the potential to be very useful to students. Surprisingly, 94% of the citation examples in the databases reviewed had errors. The average number of errors per example was 4.3. The citation help appears…

Blanco, Lorenzo J.; Garrote, Manuel – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2007
We present a summary of a study carried out with students of the first year of Bachillerato (the first of two pre-university non-obligatory secondary education courses in Spain) to determine and analyse some of their errors and difficulties in learning inequalities with the aim of improving the teaching-learning process of this topic. The study…
