Baartman, Liesbeth K. J.; Prins, Frans J.; Kirschner, Paul A.; van der Vleuten, Cees P. M. – Evaluation and Program Planning, 2011
The goal of this article is to contribute to the validation of a self-evaluation method, which can be used by schools to evaluate the quality of their Competence Assessment Program (CAP). The outcomes of the self-evaluations of two schools are systematically compared: a novice school with little experience in competence-based education and…

Solomon, Warren; And Others
This study develops and tests an instrument to assess the fidelity of the intended program, i.e., experimental treatment in the evaluation of a preschool program. During the school year (1972-73) CEMREL (Central Midwestern Educational Lab) investigated the consequences of different levels of training on implementation of the Demonstration and…

Meld, Andrea – 1990
Surveys used for program and institutional evaluation, such as self-studies conducted for accreditation review, are discussed. Frequently, these evaluations take the form of faculty surveys and student surveys. This paper explores the following general considerations associated with mail surveys and other surveys: avoidance of response bias;…

Schumacker, Randall E. – 1992
The regression-discontinuity approach to evaluating educational programs is reviewed, and regression-discontinuity post-program mean differences under various conditions are discussed. The regression-discontinuity design is used to determine whether post-program differences exist between an experimental program and a control group. The difference…

Luecht, Richard M. – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2005
Computer-based testing (CBT) is typically implemented using one of three general test delivery models: (1) multiple fixed testing (MFT); (2) computer-adaptive testing (CAT); or (3) multistage testing (MSTs). This article reviews some of the real cost drivers associated with CBT implementation--focusing on item production costs, the costs…
