Chen, Jianlin – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2020
The parasitic model proposes that novel words in L3 learning will build parasitic connections to already learned words that share orthographic or phonological similarities. This accounts for little in terms of the connections between words that share very few similarities. The present study explored the parasitic connections of L3 word concepts to…

Michel, Marije; Révész, Andrea; Lu, Xiaojun; Kourtali, Nektaria-Efstathia; Lee, Minjin; Borges, Lais – Second Language Research, 2020
Most research into second language (L2) writing has focused on the products of writing tasks; much less empirical work has examined the behaviours in which L2 writers engage and the cognitive processes that underlie writing behaviours. We aimed to fill this gap by investigating the extent to which writing speed fluency, pausing, eye-gaze…

Pitoyo, Muhammad Dafit; Sumardi; Asib, Abdul – International Journal of Language Education, 2020
Assessment and technology are two components that are very important in education. Assessment is the core of education, which provides teachers much information from their students and technology helps to achieve the learning goal more easily. Teachers are able to take the advantages of the integration of technology and assessment to get really…

Pujayanto, Pujayanto; Budiharti, Rini; Adhitama, Egy; Nuraini, Niken Rizky Amalia; Putri, Hanung Vernanda – Physics Education, 2018
This research proposes the development of a web-based assessment system to identify students' misconception. The system, named WAS (web-based assessment system), can identify students' misconception profile on linear kinematics automatically after the student has finished the test. The test instrument was developed and validated. Items were…

Litman, Diane; Strik, Helmer; Lim, Gad S. – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2018
This article provides an overview and evaluation of the uses--actual and potential--of automatic speech recognition (ASR) and spoken dialogue systems (SDS), related technologies that can be applied to second language speaking assessment, given particular definitions of the construct. Both technologies have only gradually moved in the direction of…

Eckerly, Carol; Smith, Russell; Sowles, John – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2018
The Discrete Option Multiple Choice (DOMC) item format was introduced by Foster and Miller (2009) with the intent of improving the security of test content. However, by changing the amount and order of the content presented, the test taking experience varies by test taker, thereby introducing potential fairness issues. In this paper we…

Herrmann-Abell, Cari F.; Hardcastle, Joseph; DeBoer, George E. – Grantee Submission, 2018
We compared students' performance on a paper-based test (PBT) and three computer-based tests (CBTs). The three computer-based tests used different test navigation and answer selection features, allowing us to examine how these features affect student performance. The study sample consisted of 9,698 fourth through twelfth grade students from across…

Burnett, Tracy R. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for ELA/Literacy, and the standardized assessments that test students on these standards, focus on students' ability to navigate online text and require students to comprehend, analyze, and make inferences about complex texts in both print and digital format. While the ability to read digital text with a high…

Calvo, Miquel; Carnicer, Artur; Cuadros, Jordi; Martori, Francesc; Miñarro, Antonio; Serrano, Vanessa – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2019
Open-ended tasks are common in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education. However, as far as we know, no tools have been developed to assist in the assessment of the solution process of open-ended questions. In this paper, we propose the use of analysis of traces as a tool to address this need. To illustrate this approach,…

Sanga, Mapopa William – Quarterly Review of Distance Education, 2019
This study analyzed design and technological issues encountered by online course instructors as they taught 120 online courses while working with a designated instructional designer. After developing the courses and their approval in compliance with a set, standardized rubric, the implementation of the 120 courses brought out issues that required…

Kaiser, Elsi – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2019
Causal sequences can be segmented into cause and effect. However, some argue causal relations in discourse are by default in "effect-cause" order. Others claim "cause-effect" order is easier to process and the default way of expressing causality, due to iconicity. We conducted experiments testing participants' production…

Kahraman, Hasibe – Novitas-ROYAL (Research on Youth and Language), 2019
The divisibility of the reading has led many researchers to examine whether reading construct is a unitary skill that cannot be divided into separate sub-skills, or it is composed of underlying components. In these studies, however, participants have generally been located in a product-oriented testing environment where their actual reading…

Wilcox, Bethany R.; Pollock, Steven J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
Historically, the implementation of research-based assessments (RBAs) has been a driver of educational change within physics and helped motivate adoption of interactive engagement pedagogies. Until recently, RBAs were given to students exclusively on paper and in class; however, this approach has important drawbacks including decentralized data…

Squire, Nikki – Journal of Instructional Research, 2019
Using game-based learning strategies, such as quiz-style PowerPoint games as an e-learning and teaching pedagogy can make a positive impact on how students learn, how they process and retain information, and how they interact with digital media. However, little is known about their impact on students' information literacy development. This…

Conejo, Ricardo; Barros, Beatriz; Bertoa, Manuel F. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2019
This paper presents an innovative method to tackle the automatic evaluation of programming assignments with an approach based on well-founded assessment theories (Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT)) instead of heuristic assessment as in other systems. CTT and/or IRT are used to grade the results of different items of…
