Lae Lae Shwe; Sureena Matayong; Suntorn Witosurapot – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) are an important evaluation technique for both examinations and learning activities. However, the manual creation of questions is time-consuming and challenging for teachers. Hence, there is a notable demand for an Automatic Question Generation (AQG) system. Several systems have been created for this aim, but the…

Weng, Ting-Sheng – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2012
This research applies multimedia technology to design a dynamic item generation method that can adaptively adjust the difficulty level of items according to the level of the testee. The method is based on interactive testing software developed by Flash Actionscript, and provides a testing solution for users by automatically distributing items of…

Song, Tian – ProQuest LLC, 2010
This study investigates the effect of fitting a unidimensional IRT model to multidimensional data in content-balanced computerized adaptive testing (CAT). Unconstrained CAT with the maximum information item selection method is chosen as the baseline, and the performances of three content balancing procedures, the constrained CAT (CCAT), the…

Stone, Elizabeth; Davey, Tim – Educational Testing Service, 2011
There has been an increased interest in developing computer-adaptive testing (CAT) and multistage assessments for K-12 accountability assessments. The move to adaptive testing has been met with some resistance by those in the field of special education who express concern about routing of students with divergent profiles (e.g., some students with…

Chatzopoulou, D. I.; Economides, A. A. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2010
This paper presents Programming Adaptive Testing (PAT), a Web-based adaptive testing system for assessing students' programming knowledge. PAT was used in two high school programming classes by 73 students. The question bank of PAT is composed of 443 questions. A question is classified in one out of three difficulty levels. In PAT, the levels of…

Al-A'ali, Mansoor – Educational Technology & Society, 2007
Computer adaptive testing is the study of scoring tests and questions based on assumptions concerning the mathematical relationship between examinees' ability and the examinees' responses. Adaptive student tests, which are based on item response theory (IRT), have many advantages over conventional tests. We use the least square method, a…
