Purpose: In this study, we investigated the agreement between the 175-item Philadelphia Naming Test (PNT; Roach, Schwartz, Martin, Grewal, & Brecher, 1996) and a 30-item computer adaptive PNT (PNT-CAT; Fergadiotis, Kellough, & Hula, 2015; Hula, Kellough, & Fergadiotis, 2015) created using item response theory (IRT) methods. Method: The…

Purpose: This study evaluated the feasibility of the "Start to Move" (S2M) digital assessment of children's fundamental movement skills being implemented by primary school teachers within PE lessons. Methods: Nine primary school teachers in the United Kingdom trialed S2M weekly over a 6-week period. Posttrial surveys and interviews were…

Purpose: The present study assessed the test-retest reliability of the American Sign Language (ASL) version of the Computerized Revised Token Test (CRTT-ASL) and compared the differences and similarities between ASL and English reading by Deaf and hearing users of ASL. Method: Creation of the CRTT-ASL involved filming, editing, and validating CRTT…

This study aimed to reveal the differences in individuals' abilities, their standard errors, and the psychometric properties of the test according to the two methods of applying the test (electronic and paper). The descriptive approach was used to achieve the study's objectives. The study sample consisted of 74 male and female students at the…

With the operationalisation of lockdowns and restrictions on public gatherings, education systems across the entire globe were confronted with an urgent need to reconsider alternative forms of teaching, learning and assessment. Some institutions in developing countries were especially hard-hit by the shift owing to inadequacies in training and…

The COVID-19 pandemic has witnessed a renewed interest in Live Remote Proctoring (LRP), not only as a test availability measure but as a necessity to maintain business continuity. Many certification organizations have correspondingly provided LRP as an option for candidates. This study describes a retrospective, observational pilot study…

In the spring of 2020, the learning process globally was reorganised using online technologies that support a new strategy 'emergency remote learning'. At present, it is unclear how long emergency remote teaching and learning will need to be in place. As a consequence of recent health safety measures the teaching and learning activities have…

Students exhibit many behaviors when responding to items on a computer-based test, but only some of these behaviors are relevant to estimating their proficiencies. In this study, we analyzed data from computer-based math achievement tests administered to elementary school students in grades 3 (ages 8-9) and 4 (ages 9-10). We investigated students'…

STEM educators have taken on a new and radically different reality: that students will have access to online tools and online knowledge as they undergo assessment. Students may look up facts that are easily available online, employ online tools and also employ paid services to cheat. The first wave of novel assessment strategies devised in…

This paper deals with a course of mathematics at an university in the Czech Republic. This course is for incoming students. It prepares students for math entrance exams. During the coronavirus pandemic period (2020-2021) we taught the course online. We had to solve the problem with communication with students and obtain feedback from them. For…

Culturally bounded in nature, adaptive behavior is the degree to which a person meets the requirements of personal independence and social responsibilities. This study aimed to develop a computerized adaptive test (CAT) of a culturally appropriate adaptive behavior measure (i.e., the Activities and Participation Rating Scale [APRS]) in the…

Students need more independent roles to evaluate their learning performance, especially in the absence of teachers' feedback due to some constraints such as technology and poor experience. This study investigates the potential of online self-evaluation on students' writing skills in English as a foreign language (EFL). It examines the preparatory…

The multiple response structure can underlie several different technology-enhanced item types. With the increased use of computer-based testing, multiple response items are becoming more common. This response type holds the potential for being scored polytomously for partial credit. However, there are several possible methods for computing raw…

In general, for teachers to prepare to teach, run a class, and assess student work, they need a class with students, well-structured courses, and an assessment to measure student progress. Teachers should be prepared to use traditional and virtual settings for a successful classroom. Teachers should also use three knowledge-learning objectives,…

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the continuity to Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) activities and work-integrated learning (WIL) assessments, thereby negatively affecting the progression of studies for many learners. Several institutions revisited their assessment methods and tools for WIL during such pandemics. This study…
