Prior work has documented a substantial penalty associated with taking the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) online relative to on paper (Backes & Cowan, 2019). However, this penalty does not necessarily make online tests less useful. For example, it could be the case that computer literacy skills are…

The New York State Education Department (NYSED) has a partnership with Questar Assessment Inc. (Questar) for the development of the 2020 Grades 3-8 Mathematics Tests. Teachers from across the State work with NYSED in a variety of activities to ensure the validity and reliability of the New York State Testing Program (NYSTP). The 2020 Grades 6-8…

A major problem faced by instructors post-implementation of unsupervised online assessments is that they may lack real-time access to the students' actual learning behaviors. Limitations in student-feedback, limited know-how of accessing and analyzing log data, and large class sizes could restrict instructors' access to learners' behaviors. This…

In the shift to Emergency Remote Teaching and Learning (ERT&L) during the COVID-19 pandemic, remote assessment and feedback became a major source of discontent and challenge for students and staff. This paper is a reflection and analysis of assessment practices during ERT&L, and our theorisation of the possibilities for shifts towards…

Chiang Mai Rajabhat University Test of English Proficiency (CMRU-TEP) is a required English proficiency test for all CMRU students before graduation. Despite its meticulous design, there is an opportunity for students to improve their scores through focused efforts and targeted support. This study employs an explanatory sequential mixed-methods…

With the research reported here, we specifically aim to develop application products of scientific work independence instruments through science integrated learning (SIL) for various education levels (elementary schools, junior high schools, senior high schools, and universities). The SIL model was applied in learning to determine specific…

The COVID-19 pandemic precipitated a rapid shift to virtual learning environments (VLEs) in higher education institutions (HEIs), presenting a complex array of challenges and opportunities. This study investigates the critical factors influencing faculty members' swift transition to VLEs during emergencies, focusing on a semi-government Emirati…

This study inspected how techno-competence in artificial intelligence (AI)-driven evaluations affected EFL learners' boredom, self-esteem, and writing skills. To do so, 66 Saudi Arabian male students from Saudi Arabia participated in the study. They were then split into the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG). While the CG was…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced higher education institutions worldwide to rapidly transition to online learning, exposing vulnerabilities and highlighting the critical need for robust ICT infrastructure. This study investigates the readiness of network universities in upper northeastern Thailand to provide education using ICT during the COVID-19…

The combination of teaching and information technologies is at the origin of a more embracing, flexible and accessible approach to learning. Assessment is considered an integral part of the learning process, but it has always been considered challenging for teachers. Through the adoption of information technologies, it is possible to create new…

This study introduced dynamic multistage testing (dy-MST) as an improvement to existing adaptive testing methods. dy-MST combines the advantages of computerized adaptive testing (CAT) and computerized adaptive multistage testing (ca-MST) to create a highly efficient and regulated adaptive testing method. In the test construction phase, multistage…

This article reviews how National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) has come to collect and analyze data about cognitive and behavioral processes (process data) in the transition to digital assessment technologies over the past two decades. An ordered five-level structure is proposed for describing the uses of process data. The levels in…

The computer based tests are capable of putting together a lot of interactions and fascinating question types, such as simulations, online tests, and measurement of skills, rather than simply assessing by paper-pencil tests. The computerized test result has greater standardization of test administration. The aim of this study is to seek out the…

Instructors may design and implement formative assessments on technology-enhanced platforms (e.g., online quizzes) with the intention of encouraging the use of effective learning strategies like active retrieval of information and spaced practice among their students. However, when students interact with unsupervised technology-enhanced learning…
