Threlfall, John; Pool, Peter; Homer, Matthew; Swinnerton, Bronwen – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2007
This article explores the effect on assessment of "translating" paper and pencil test items into their computer equivalents. Computer versions of a set of mathematics questions derived from the paper-based end of key stage 2 and 3 assessments in England were administered to age appropriate pupil samples, and the outcomes compared.…

Computer-assisted assessment offers the possibility of widening the scope of the material that is assessed, without placing excessive burdens on either staff or students. This article describes a computer-assisted assessment scheme…

Johnson, Martin; Green, Sylvia – Journal of Technology, Learning, and Assessment, 2006
The transition from paper-based to computer-based assessment raises a number of important issues about how mode might affect children's performance and question answering strategies. In this project 104 eleven-year-olds were given two sets of matched mathematics questions, one set on-line and the other on paper. Facility values were analyzed to…

Horkay, Nancy; Bennett, Randy Elliott; Allen, Nancy; Kaplan, Bruce; Yan, Fred – Journal of Technology, Learning, and Assessment, 2006
This study investigated the comparability of scores for paper and computer versions of a writing test administered to eighth grade students. Two essay prompts were given on paper to a nationally representative sample as part of the 2002 main NAEP writing assessment. The same two essay prompts were subsequently administered on computer to a second…
