Keyser, Diane – Online Submission, 2010
To design a series of assessments that could be used to compare the learning gains of high school students studying the cardiopulmonary system using traditional methods to those who used a collaborative computer simulation, called "Mr. Vetro". Five teachers and 264 HS biology students participated in the study. The students were in…

Bennett, Randy Elliot; Persky, Hilary; Weiss, Andy; Jenkins, Frank – Journal of Technology, Learning, and Assessment, 2010
This paper describes a study intended to demonstrate how an emerging skill, problem solving with technology, might be measured in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Two computer-delivered assessment scenarios were designed, one on solving science-related problems through electronic information search and the other on solving…

Hedges, Larry V.; Vevea, Jack L. – 2003
A computer simulation study was conducted to investigate the amount of uncertainty added to National Assessment of Educational Progress estimates by equating error under three different equating methods and while varying a number of factors that might affect accuracy of equating. Data from past NAEP administrations were used to guide the…
