Rodríguez-Vásquez, Flor Monserrat; Ariza-Hernandez, Francisco J. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
The evaluation of learning in mathematics is a worldwide problem, therefore, new methods are required to assess the understanding of mathematical concepts. In this paper, we propose to use the Item Response Theory to analyze the understanding level of undergraduate students about the real function mathematical concept. The Bayesian approach was…
