Kane, Michael T.; Tannenbaum, Richard J. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2016
It is one thing to produce an innovative, construct-based assessment task; it's another to produce 10 a year that are comparable in difficulty, measure the same competencies, are free of differential item functioning, and can be scaled and equated. These challenges contributed to the failure of the performance (or authentic) assessment movement of…
