This research report provides a description of the processes of evaluating the "deployability" of automated scoring (AS) systems from the perspective of large-scale educational assessments in operational settings. It discusses a comprehensive psychometric evaluation that entails analyses that take into consideration the specific purpose…

Extracting information efficiently from game/simulation-based assessment (G/SBA) logs requires two things: a well-structured log file and a set of analysis methods. In this report, we propose a generic data model specified as an extensible markup language (XML) schema for the log files of G/SBAs. We also propose a set of analysis methods for…

Simulation or game-based assessments produce outcome data and process data. In this article, some statistical models that can potentially be used to analyze data from simulation or game-based assessments are introduced. Specifically, cognitive diagnostic models that can be used to estimate latent skills from outcome data so as to scale these…
