Obaidat, Ihab; Malkawi, Ehab – International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2009
We have investigated the grasp of some of the basic concepts of motion by students taking the introductory physics course in Mechanics at United Arab Emirates University (UAEU). We have developed a short research-based multiple-choice test where we were able to extract some information about the state of knowledge of the students. In general, the…

Ahmed, Ayesha; Pollitt, Alastair – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2007
Setting examination questions in real-world contexts is widespread. However, when students are reading contextualized questions there is a risk that the cognitive processes provoked by the context can interfere with their understanding of the concepts in the question. Validity may then be compromised. We introduce the concept of "focus":…
