Helen Zhang; Anthony Perry; Irene Lee – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2025
The rapid expansion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in our society makes it urgent and necessary to develop young students' AI literacy so that they can become informed citizens and critical consumers of AI technology. Over the past decade many efforts have focused on developing curricular materials that make AI concepts accessible and engaging to…

Shoji, Yoshihiko; Munejiri, Shuji; Kaga, Eiko – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
In this study, we evaluate the validity of question 29 (Q.29) in the Force Concept Inventory (FCI), which requires an understanding of atmospheric pressure. At least in some Japanese physics classes, the rate of the correct answer to Q.29 is reduced between the pretest and post-test. To examine this deterioration of a student's response, we…

Balta, Nuri; Logman, Paul S. W. M. – Physics Education, 2022
The purpose of this study is to develop a test to assess students' level of counterintuitiveness in basic electric circuits. Data from four samples were gathered and used to develop and validate the counterintuitive basic electric circuit test (CBECT). The initial version of the CBECT was administered to the first sample and data collected from…

Horng, Ruey-Yun; Wang, Ching-Wen; Yen, Yung-Chieh; Lu, Chia-Ying; Li, Chien-Tao – Creativity Research Journal, 2021
Conceptual combination is proposed as the mental activity by which imagination produces new ideas in creative processes. Two parallel forms of the imagination test were constructed based on conceptual combination theory. Each test comprises eighteen unrelated noun-noun pairs. For each pair, an original idea is required. The test-retest reliability…

Anwar, Lathiful; Mali, Angeliki; Goedhart, Martin J. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
This study aims to investigate the effects of the use of multiple geometry proof formats on Indonesian students' reading comprehension of geometry proof (RCGP). Four classes of prospective secondary mathematics teachers (N=125), aged 18 to 19 years, participated in this quasi-experimental study. While the experimental group was instructed in three…

Finney, Sara J.; Sundre, Donna L.; Swain, Matthew S.; Williams, Laura M. – Educational Assessment, 2016
Accountability mandates often prompt assessment of student learning gains (e.g., value-added estimates) via achievement tests. The validity of these estimates have been questioned when performance on tests is low stakes for students. To assess the effects of motivation on value-added estimates, we assigned students to one of three test consequence…

Salem, Walaa Abdel Fattah – Online Submission, 2021
The study aim was examining the effect of a program based on Cloud-computing platform on developing assessment strategies for EFL primary school teachers. The study reviewed the literature and previous studies dealing with assessment strategies (self-assessment, peer-assessment, strategic use of Questioning and reflection), professional learning…

Gupta, Akriti; Singh, Satendra; Khaliq, Farah; Dhaliwal, Upreet; Madhu, S. V. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2018
In the country presently, preclinical medical students are not routinely exposed to real patients. Thus, when they start clinical postings, they are found to have poor clinical reasoning skills. Simulated virtual patients (SVPs) can improve clinical skills without endangering real patients. This pilot study describes the development of two SVPs in…

Muijselaar, Marloes M. L. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018
We investigated the dimensionality of inference making in samples of 4- to 9-year-olds (Ns = 416-783) to determine if local and global coherence inferences could be distinguished. In addition, we examined the validity of our experimenter-developed inference measure by comparing with three additional measures of listening comprehension. Multitrait,…

Huang, Francis L.; Cornell, Dewey G. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2016
Although school climate has long been recognized as an important factor in the school improvement process, there are few psychometrically supported measures based on teacher perspectives. The current study replicated and extended the factor structure, concurrent validity, and test-retest reliability of the teacher version of the Authoritative…

Bailey, Janelle M.; Johnson, Bruce; Prather, Edward E.; Slater, Timothy F. – International Journal of Science Education, 2012
Concept inventories (CIs)--typically multiple-choice instruments that focus on a single or small subset of closely related topics--have been used in science education for more than a decade. This paper describes the development and validation of a new CI for astronomy, the "Star Properties Concept Inventory" (SPCI). Questions cover the areas of…

Anderson, Steven W.; Libarkin, Julie C. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2016
Nationwide pre- and posttesting of introductory courses with the Geoscience Concept Inventory (GCI) shows little gain for many of its questions. Analysis of more than 3,500 tests shows that 22 of the 73 GCI questions had gains of <0.03, and nearly half of these focused on basic physics and chemistry. We also discovered through an assessment of…

Guffey, Sarah Katie; Slater, Timothy F.; Slater, Stephanie J. – Journal of Astronomy & Earth Sciences Education, 2017
Geoscience education researchers have considerable need for criterion-referenced, easy-to-administer, easy-to-score, conceptual surveys for undergraduates taking introductory science survey courses in order for faculty to monitor the learning impacts of innovative teaching. In response, this study establishes the reliability and validity of a…

Wang, Rui – portal: Libraries and the Academy, 2016
The purpose of this study is to explore a conceptual approach to assessment for one-shot library instruction. This study develops a new assessment instrument based on Carol Kuhlthau's information search process (ISP) model. The new instrument focuses on measuring and identifying changes in student readiness to do research along three…
