In the first stage, the scale, which contains 40 items, was applied to a total of 578 teachers working in different branches in 7 geographical regions of Türkiye. The collected data were used to…

In the last two years, there has been a significant increase in research studies on ChatGPT and its role in educational assessment. However, there is no comprehensive systematic literature review (SLR) on the potential use of ChatGPT for educational assessment, particularly with a focus on its practices and limitations. To address this gap, our…

Competence-based test development (CbTD) is a novel method for constructing tests that are as informative as possible about the competence state (the set of skills an individual masters) underlying the item responses. If desired, the tests can also be minimal, meaning that no item can be eliminated without reducing their informativeness. To…

Conventional mathematics testing often fails to reflect the diverse cultural backgrounds and lived experiences of Indigenous pupils. While efforts to improve educational access for Indigenous communities have increased, less emphasis has been placed on adapting test development processes to align with Indigenous learners' linguistic backgrounds…

Recent research has highlighted technology-enhanced active learning (TEAL) as a burgeoning area of study. However, the effectiveness of technology-enhanced active learning environments in supporting pre-service teachers' technological beliefs and TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) development remains to be further investigated.…

Childhood stress affects physical and mental health, making its proper assessment crucial. While several stress questionnaires for youth are available, their psychometric quality is questionable. Our aim was to develop a brief, age-appropriate questionnaire to measure current stress. Two-hundred thirty German children (6-17 years) completed the…

This study sought to understand Philippine mathematics teachers' practices in relation to situated learning theory (SLT) by developing and administering a questionnaire. Following a five-step process for developing a questionnaire by Harlacher (2016), the final items reflected the teachers' performance indicators identified in the Framework for…

Background/purpose: The current research aims to construct a criterion-referenced test using the amplified objectives for the Environmental Education subject for students of the Educational and Psychological Sciences Departments in the Faculties of Education, based on item response theory (IRT) and the Rasch one-parameter logistic (1PL) model. The…

A questionnaire for measuring Context University Skills and Workplace-Recognized Skills (LCUS-WRS) requires a validated and reliable instrument.

With the development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications, it has become critical for scholars, educators and practitioners to understand an individual's perceived self-efficacy regarding the use of AI technologies/products. Understanding users' subsequent behaviors toward the advancement of AI technology is also critical. Despite the…

Limited research has been conducted on the spatial ability of veterinary students and how this is evaluated within anatomy assessments. This study describes the creation and evaluation of a split design multiple-choice question (MCQ) assessment (totaling 30 questions divided into 15 non-spatial MCQs and 15 spatial MCQs). Two cohorts were tested,…

This study investigated task contextualization as a means of assessing students' ability to apply their subject knowledge to new situations. Through analyzing 527 Functional Mathematics examination questions that claim to assess students' application skills, it developed a set of principles for embedding questions in context: deep…

This article focuses on the learning of the Lewis representation at the transition from high school to university, in France. Indeed, this notion is taught both in high school and in the first year of higher education but with different methods, which seems to hinder the learners. In this work, we observe 11th grade and higher education classes…

This study aims to develop a knowledge test to assess secondary school students' awareness of scientists. After determining the topics that the questions in the test would measure, 50 multiple-choice questions were prepared and presented to six experts in the field. Following the experts' feedback, the number of questions in the test was reduced…
