Peter Rowlett; Chris Graham; Christian Lawson-Perfect – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
Partially automated assessment is implemented via the 'Printable worksheet' mode in the Numbas e-assessment system to create a mathematical modelling worksheet which is individualised with random parameters but completed and marked as if it were a non-automated piece of coursework, preserving validity while reducing the risk of academic misconduct…

Yan Jin; Jason Fan – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2023
In language assessment, AI technology has been incorporated in task design, assessment delivery, automated scoring of performance-based tasks, score reporting, and provision of feedback. AI technology is also used for collecting and analyzing performance data in language assessment validation. Research has been conducted to investigate the…

Wang, Wenhao; Kingston, Neal M.; Davis, Marcia H.; Tiemann, Gail C.; Tonks, Stephen; Hock, Michael – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2021
Adaptive tests are more efficient than fixed-length tests through the use of item response theory; adaptive tests also present students questions that are tailored to their proficiency level. Although the adaptive algorithm is straightforward, developing a multidimensional computer adaptive test (MCAT) measure is complex. Evidence-centered design…

Ulitzsch, Esther; von Davier, Matthias; Pohl, Steffi – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
So far, modeling approaches for not-reached items have considered one single underlying process. However, missing values at the end of a test can occur for a variety of reasons. On the one hand, examinees may not reach the end of a test due to time limits and lack of working speed. On the other hand, examinees may not attempt all items and quit…

Hickey, Daniel; Harris, Tripp – Distance Education, 2021
Increased online learning is helping many appreciate that online grading, formative assessment, and summative testing can cause instructor burnout and leave little time for more productive instructor interactions. We reimagined grading, assessment, and testing in an extended program of design-based research using situative theory to refine online…

Dickison, Philip; Luo, Xiao; Kim, Doyoung; Woo, Ada; Muntean, William; Bergstrom, Betty – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2016
Designing a theory-based assessment with sound psychometric qualities to measure a higher-order cognitive construct is a highly desired yet challenging task for many practitioners. This paper proposes a framework for designing a theory-based assessment to measure a higher-order cognitive construct. This framework results in a modularized yet…

von Davier, Matthias; Khorramdel, Lale; He, Qiwei; Shin, Hyo Jeong; Chen, Haiwen – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2019
International large-scale assessments (ILSAs) transitioned from paper-based assessments to computer-based assessments (CBAs) facilitating the use of new item types and more effective data collection tools. This allows implementation of more complex test designs and to collect process and response time (RT) data. These new data types can be used to…

Carlson, Tiffany; Crepeau-Hobson, Franci – Communique, 2021
When the coronavirus pandemic was declared a public health crisis in March 2020, school psychologists were forced into situations where face-to-face interaction with their students was discouraged and in some cases, prohibited. Consequently, the traditional practice of school psychology abruptly ended. Individualized Education Plans (IEP) and…

Kaufman, Alan S. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
U.S. Supreme Court justices and other federal judges are, effectively, appointed for life, with no built-in check on their cognitive functioning as they approach old age. There is about a century of research on aging and intelligence that shows the vulnerability of processing speed, fluid reasoning, visual-spatial processing, and working memory to…

Aybek, Eren Can; Demirtasli, R. Nukhet – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2017
This article aims to provide a theoretical framework for computerized adaptive tests (CAT) and item response theory models for polytomous items. Besides that, it aims to introduce the simulation and live CAT software to the related researchers. Computerized adaptive test algorithm, assumptions of item response theory models, nominal response…

Albacete, Patricia; Silliman, Scott; Jordan, Pamela – Grantee Submission, 2017
Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS), like human tutors, try to adapt to student's knowledge level so that the instruction is tailored to their needs. One aspect of this adaptation relies on the ability to have an understanding of the student's initial knowledge so as to build on it, avoiding teaching what the student already knows and focusing on…

DiCerbo, Kristen E. – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2017
While game-based assessment offers new potential for understanding the processes students use to solve problems, it also presents new challenges in uncovering which player actions provide evidence that contributes to understanding about students' knowledge, skill, and attributes that we are interested in assessing. A development process that…

Gierl, Mark J.; Lai, Hollis – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2013
Changes to the design and development of our educational assessments are resulting in the unprecedented demand for a large and continuous supply of content-specific test items. One way to address this growing demand is with automatic item generation (AIG). AIG is the process of using item models to generate test items with the aid of computer…

Choi, Seung W.; Podrabsky, Tracy; McKinney, Natalie – Applied Psychological Measurement, 2012
Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) enables efficient and flexible measurement of latent constructs. The majority of educational and cognitive measurement constructs are based on dichotomous item response theory (IRT) models. An integral part of developing various components of a CAT system is conducting simulations using both known and empirical…
