Bryan R. Drost; Char Shryock – Phi Delta Kappan, 2025
Creating assessment questions aligned to standards is a time-consuming task for teachers, but large language models such as ChatGPT can help. Bryan Drost & Char Shryock describe a three-step process for using ChatGPT to create assessments: 1) Ask ChatGPT to break standards into measurable targets. 2) Determine how much time to spend on each…

Hoseana, Jonathan; Stepanus, Oriza; Octora, Elvina – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
As educational systems move from onsite to online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers face the difficulty of designing online examination formats which minimize opportunities for dishonesty. In this paper, we expose our design of such a format: a protected Microsoft Excel spreadsheet containing short-answer questions, which was implemented in a…

Alves, Francisco Régis Vieira; De Sousa, Renata Teófilo; Fontenele, Francisca Cláudia Fernandes – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2022
This article presents a didactic situation focused on geometric reasoning using 3D GeoGebra, using the concepts Theory of Didactical Situations (TDS). The objective of this work is to bring a didactic proposal for the teaching of Spatial Geometry, working with the students' geometric perception, oriented and elaborated based on the dialectic of…

Lesser, Lawrence M.; Pearl, Dennis K.; Weber, John J.; Dousa, Dominic M.; Carey, Robert P.; Haddad, Stephen A. – Journal of Statistics Education, 2019
This article describes the process used to develop and assess an NSF-funded instructional innovation: an online collection (https://www.CAUSEweb.org/smiles/) of 28 interactive songs of high esthetic quality designed to span literature-based learning objectives of introductory statistics that develop statistical literacy and reasoning. The…

Mullis, Ina V. S., Ed.; Martin, Michael O., Ed.; von Davier, Matthias, Ed. – International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, 2021
TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) is a long-standing international assessment of mathematics and science at the fourth and eighth grades that has been collecting trend data every four years since 1995. About 70 countries use TIMSS trend data for monitoring the effectiveness of their education systems in a global…

Wagner, Jennifer; Sharp, Janet – Mathematics Teacher, 2017
Calculus, perhaps more than other areas of mathematics, has a reputation for being steeped with procedures. In fact, through the years, it has been noticed of many students getting caught in the trap of trying to memorize algorithms and rules without developing associated concept knowledge. Specifically, students often struggle with the…

Ayres, Karen L.; Underwood, Fiona M. – Bioscience Education, 2010
We describe the main features of a program written to perform electronic marking of quantitative or simple text questions. One of the main benefits is that it can check answers for being consistent with earlier errors, so can cope with a range of numerical questions. We summarise our experience of using it in a statistics course taught to 200…

Radakovic, Davorka; Herceg, Dorde – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2013
Dynamic geometry software (DGS) is often used for development of interactive teaching materials in many subjects, not only mathematics. These interactive materials can contain hundreds of elements in order to represent complex objects, and script programs to control their behavior. We propose an approach for creating, importing and using…

Liu, Jun; Sha, Sha; Zheng, Qinghua; Zhang, Wei – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2012
Assigning difficulty level indicators to the knowledge units helps the learners plan their learning activities more efficiently. This paper focuses on how to use the topology of a knowledge map to compute and rank the difficulty levels of knowledge units. Firstly, the authors present the hierarchical structure and properties of the knowledge map.…

Kim, Jee-Seon; Bolt, Daniel M. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2007
The purpose of this ITEMS module is to provide an introduction to Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation for item response models. A brief description of Bayesian inference is followed by an overview of the various facets of MCMC algorithms, including discussion of prior specification, sampling procedures, and methods for evaluating chain…

Gerber, Michael M.; And Others – Exceptional Children, 1994
Design details, operation, and initial field test results are reported for DynaMath, a computer-based dynamic assessment system that provides individually tailored, instructionally useful assessment of students with disabilities. DynaMath organizes and outputs student performance data, graphically shows the "zone of proximal…

Barrow, Lisa; Markman, Lisa; Rouse, Cecilia Elena – Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, 2007
Because a significant portion of U.S. students lacks critical mathematic skills, schools across the country are investing heavily in computerized curriculums as a way to enhance education output, even though there is surprisingly little evidence that they actually improve student achievement. In this paper we present results from a randomized…

Berry, J.; Graham, E.; Smith, A. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, 2006
Some research studies, many of which used quantitative methods, have suggested that graphics calculators can be used to effectively enhance the learning of mathematics. More recently research studies have started to explore students' styles of working as they solve problems with technology. This paper describes the use of a software application…
