Shermis, Mark D. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2022
One of the challenges of discussing validity arguments for machine scoring of essays centers on the absence of a commonly held definition and theory of good writing. At best, the algorithms attempt to measure select attributes of writing and calibrate them against human ratings with the goal of accurate prediction of scores for new essays.…

Selcuk Acar; Denis Dumas; Peter Organisciak; Kelly Berthiaume – Grantee Submission, 2024
Creativity is highly valued in both education and the workforce, but assessing and developing creativity can be difficult without psychometrically robust and affordable tools. The open-ended nature of creativity assessments has made them difficult to score, expensive, often imprecise, and therefore impractical for school- or district-wide use. To…

Srour, F. Jordan; Karkoulian, Silva – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2022
The literature provides multiple measures of diversity along a single demographic dimension, but when it comes to studying the interaction of multiple diversity types (e.g. age, gender, and race), the field of useable measures diminishes. We present the use of decision trees as a machine learning technique to automatically identify the…

Olney, Andrew M.; Donnelly, Patrick J.; Samei, Borhan; D'Mello, Sidney K. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2017
Automatic assessment of dialogic properties of classroom discourse would benefit several widespread classroom observation protocols. However, in classrooms with low incidences of dialogic discourse, assessment can be highly biased against detecting dialogic properties. In this paper, we present an approach to addressing this imbalanced class…

Veilleux, Jennifer C.; Chapman, Kate M. – Teaching of Psychology, 2017
Research methods and statistics are core courses in the undergraduate psychology major. To assess learning outcomes, it would be useful to have a measure that assesses research methods and statistical literacy beyond course grades. In two studies, we developed and provided initial validation results for a research methods and statistical knowledge…
