Rudner, Lawrence M.; Guo, Fanmin – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2011
This study investigates measurement decision theory (MDT) as an underlying model for computer adaptive testing when the goal is to classify examinees into one of a finite number of groups. The first analysis compares MDT with a popular item response theory model and finds little difference in terms of the percentage of correct classifications. The…

Sanna, A.; Lamberti, F.; Paravati, G.; Demartini, C. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2012
Computer-based assessment of exams provides teachers and students with two main benefits: fairness and effectiveness in the evaluation process. This paper proposes a fully automatic evaluation tool for the Graphic and Virtual Design (GVD) curriculum at the First School of Architecture of the Politecnico di Torino, Italy. In particular, the tool is…
