Direct linkPearson, Christopher; Penna, Nigel – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2023
E-assessments are becoming increasingly common and progressively more complex. Consequently, how these longer, more complex questions are designed and marked is imperative. This article uses the NUMBAS e-assessment tool to investigate the best practice for creating longer questions and their mark schemes on surveying modules taken by engineering…

Sangwin, Christopher J.; Jones, Ian – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2017
In this paper we report the results of an experiment designed to test the hypothesis that when faced with a question involving the inverse direction of a reversible mathematical process, students solve a multiple-choice version by verifying the answers presented to them by the direct method, not by undertaking the actual inverse calculation.…

Whitworth, David E.; Wright, Kate – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2015
In science education, laboratory practicals are frequently assessed through submission of a report. A large increase in student numbers necessitated us adapting a traditional practical report into an online test with automated marking. The assessment was designed to retain positive features of the traditional laboratory report but with added…

Ngo, Federick; Melguizo, Tatiana – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2016
Changing placement policy may help to improve developmental education student outcomes in community colleges, but there is little understanding of the impacts of these reforms. We take advantage of heterogeneous placement policy in a large urban community college district in California to compare the effects of math remediation under different…

Horwitz, Paul; von Davier, Alina; Chamberlain, John; Koon, Al; Andrews, Jessica; McIntyre, Cynthia – Community College Journal of Research and Practice, 2017
The Teaching Teamwork Project is using an online simulated electronic circuit, running on multiple computers, to assess students' abilities to work together as a team. We pose problems that must be tackled collaboratively, and log students' actions as they attempt to solve them. Team members are isolated from one another and can communicate only…

Adult Science Learners' Mathematical Mistakes: An Analysis of Responses to Computer-Marked Questions
Download full textJordan, Sally – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2014
Inspection of thousands of student responses to computer-marked assessment questions has brought insight into the errors made by adult distance learners of science. Most of the questions analysed were in summative use and required students to construct their own response. Both of these things increased confidence in the reliability of the…

van der Linden, Wim J. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2009
A bivariate lognormal model for the distribution of the response times on a test by a pair of test takers is presented. As the model has parameters for the item effects on the response times, its correlation parameter automatically corrects for the spuriousness in the observed correlation between the response times of different test takers because…
