Jonathan Hoseana; Andy Leonardo Louismono; Oriza Stepanus – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
We describe and evaluate a method to mitigate unwanted student collaborations in assessments, which we recently implemented in a second-year undergraduate mathematics module. The method requires a list of specific pairs of students to be prevented from collaborating, which we constructed based on the results of previous assessments. We converted…

Li Zhao; Junjie Peng; Shiqi Ke; Kang Lee – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Unproctored and teacher-proctored exams have been widely used to prevent cheating at many universities worldwide. However, no empirical studies have directly compared their effectiveness in promoting academic integrity in actual exams. To address this significant gap, in four preregistered field studies, we examined the effectiveness of…

Anna Filighera; Sebastian Ochs; Tim Steuer; Thomas Tregel – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2024
Automatic grading models are valued for the time and effort saved during the instruction of large student bodies. Especially with the increasing digitization of education and interest in large-scale standardized testing, the popularity of automatic grading has risen to the point where commercial solutions are widely available and used. However,…

Phillip Dawson; Kelli Nicola-Richmond; Helen Partridge – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2024
Educators set restrictions in examinations to enable them to assess learning outcomes under particular conditions. The open book versus closed book binary is an example of the sorts of restrictions examiners have traditionally set. In the late 2000s this was expanded to a trinary to include open web examinations. However, the current technology…

Benjamin Sorenson; Kenneth Hanson – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
In spring 2020, the chemical education community faced an abrupt transition from in-person to online classes, which also necessitated online assessments. Building upon an existing three-semester study (F17, S19, and F19) using Rasch modeling and classical testing theory to improve in-person multiple choice exams, this study investigates the impact…

Kaveh Jalilzadeh; Mojgan Rashtchi; Fatemeh Mirzapour – Language Testing in Asia, 2024
A challenging aspect of online education is assessment since academic integrity could be violated due to students' cheating behaviors. The current qualitative research investigated English teachers' perceptions of why students cheat in online assessments. Besides, it attempted to find strategies to reduce cheating in online assessments. Twelve…

Gorney, Kylie; Wollack, James A. – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2022
Unlike the traditional multiple-choice (MC) format, the discrete-option multiple-choice (DOMC) format does not necessarily reveal all answer options to an examinee. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the reduced exposure of item content affects test security. We conducted an experiment in which participants were allowed to view…

Becker, Benjamin; van Rijn, Peter; Molenaar, Dylan; Debeer, Dries – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2022
A common approach to increase test security in higher educational high-stakes testing is the use of different test forms with identical items but different item orders. The effects of such varied item orders are relatively well studied, but findings have generally been mixed. When multiple test forms with different item orders are used, we argue…
