Deschênes, Marie-France; Dionne, Éric; Dorion, Michelle; Grondin, Julie – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2023
The use of the aggregate scoring method for scoring concordance tests requires the weighting of test items to be derived from the performance of a group of experts who take the test under the same conditions as the examinees. However, the average score of experts constituting the reference panel remains a critical issue in the use of these tests.…

Santi Lestari – Research Matters, 2025
The ability to draw visual representations such as diagrams and graphs is considered fundamental to science learning. Science exams therefore often include questions which require students to draw a visual representation, or to augment a partially provided one. The design features of such questions (e.g., layout of diagrams, amount of answer…

Langbeheim, Elon; Akaygun, Sevil; Adadan, Emine; Hlatshwayo, Manzini; Ramnarain, Umesh – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
Linking assessment and curriculum in science education, particularly within the topic of matter and its changes, is often taken for granted. Some of the fundamental elements of the assessment, such as the choice of wording and visual representations, as well as its relation to the curricular sequence, remain understudied. In addition, very few…
