New knowledge tracing models are continuously being proposed, even at a pace where state-of-the-art models cannot be compared with each other at the time of publication. This leads to a situation where ranking models is hard, and the underlying reasons of the models' performance -- be it architectural choices, hyperparameter tuning, performance…

Punter, R. Annemiek; Glas, Cees A. W.; Meelissen, Martina R. M. – International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, 2016
Parental involvement is seen as one of the most malleable factors of the student's home situation, which makes it a relevant subject for schools, educational policies, and research. Though many studies have researched its role in student achievement, effects are not univocal. It is difficult to tell whether these inconsistent results are caused by…

Lee, Eunjung; Lee, Won-Chan; Brennan, Robert L. – College Board, 2012
In almost all high-stakes testing programs, test equating is necessary to ensure that test scores across multiple test administrations are equivalent and can be used interchangeably. Test equating becomes even more challenging in mixed-format tests, such as Advanced Placement Program® (AP®) Exams, that contain both multiple-choice and constructed…

Wainess, Richard; Kerr, Deirdre; Koenig, Alan – National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST), 2011
One of the reasons why commercial video games are popular is that they effectively teach players how to play the game--in many cases as the player plays the game itself. This paper focuses on how to effectively integrate teaching "how to play a game" with teaching an "instructional domain" within a game for learning. By analyzing more than 30…

DeCarlo, Lawrence T. – ETS Research Report Series, 2008
Rater behavior in essay grading can be viewed as a signal-detection task, in that raters attempt to discriminate between latent classes of essays, with the latent classes being defined by a scoring rubric. The present report examines basic aspects of an approach to constructed-response (CR) scoring via a latent-class signal-detection model. The…

This study compared various equating models and procedures for a sample of data from the Medical College Admission Test(MCAT), considering how item response theory (IRT) equating results compare with classical equipercentile results and how the results based on use of various IRT models, observed score versus true score, direct versus linked…

Rudner, Lawrence M.; And Others – 1995
Fit statistics provide a direct measure of assessment accuracy by analyzing the fit of measurement models to an individual's (or group's) response pattern. Students that lose interest during the assessment, for example, will miss exercises that are within their abilities. Such students will respond correctly to some more difficult items and…
