Sahin, Alper; Hurtado Grooscors, Hector Armando; Góngora-Cortés, Jose Juan – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2018
Computerized adaptive tests (CATs) have received wider attention throughout the world in recent years mainly because they provide their users with higher precision in examinee ability estimation with less items by the help of the sound psychometric principals they are based on. The recent attention necessitates the need for platforms on which CATs…

Liu, Ming; Li, Yi; Xu, Weiwei; Liu, Li – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2017
Writing an essay is a very important skill for students to master, but a difficult task for them to overcome. It is particularly true for English as Second Language (ESL) students in China. It would be very useful if students could receive timely and effective feedback about their writing. Automatic essay feedback generation is a challenging task,…

Katz, Irvin R.; Tannenbaum, Richard J. – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2014
Web-based standard setting holds promise for reducing the travel and logistical inconveniences of traditional, face-to-face standard setting meetings. However, because there are few published reports of setting standards via remote meeting technology, little is known about the practical potential of the approach, including technical feasibility of…

Babu, Rakesh; Singh, Rahul – Journal of Information Technology Education: Research, 2013
This paper presents a novel task-oriented, user-centered, multi-method evaluation (TUME) technique and shows how it is useful in providing a more complete, practical and solution-oriented assessment of the accessibility and usability of Learning Management Systems (LMS) for blind and visually impaired (BVI) students. Novel components of TUME…

Bulut, Okan; Kan, Adnan – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2012
Problem Statement: Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) is a sophisticated and efficient way of delivering examinations. In CAT, items for each examinee are selected from an item bank based on the examinee's responses to the items. In this way, the difficulty level of the test is adjusted based on the examinee's ability level. Instead of…

Higgins, Colin A.; Bligh, Brett; Symeonidis, Pavlos; Tsintsifas, Athanasios – Computers & Education, 2009
The CourseMarker system has been used to assess free-response computer based assessment (CBA) exercises since 1998. The aim of the studies reported here was to evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of developing and deploying diagram-based exercises using DATsys, an authoring environment for diagram-based CBA, together with CourseMarker.…
