Waddell, Jennifer H.; Marszalek, Jacob M. – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2018
In urban schools, along with skills for effective teaching, successful teachers must also possess values and belief systems conducive to teaching effectively in diverse settings (Becker, Kennedy, & Hundersmarck, 2003; Haberman, 2008; Metzgar & Wu, 2008). As demonstrated in CAEP standard 3, there is a critical need for EPPs to admit…

Bronkhorst, Hugo; Roorda, Gerrit; Suhre, Cor; Goedhart, Martin – Research in Mathematics Education, 2022
Logical reasoning as part of critical thinking is becoming more and more important to prepare students for their future life in society, work, and study. This article presents the results of a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test control group design focusing on the effective use of formalisations to support logical reasoning. The…

Zhang, Fuhui; Schunn, Christian; Li, Wentao; Long, Miyin – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2020
Although a variety of learning benefits of peer assessment have been documented, many concerns remain regarding its reliability and validity, especially for peers at early learning stages and for English as a foreign language (EFL) learners in general. Such concerns may prevent adoption of peer assessment for instruction. To help localize the…

Nazli Uygun Emil – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Validity of a measurement refers to appropriate test score meanings, uses, and interpretations (Messick, 1989; Kane, 1992). There are different approaches to validity: an evidentiary aspect of validity is one requiring gathering statistical evidence to evaluate test score meaning. A common approach to validation is comparisons of test score equity…

Neumann, Michelle M.; Neumann, David L. – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2019
Touch screen tablets are being increasingly used in schools for learning and assessment. However, the validity and reliability of assessments delivered via tablets are largely unknown. The present study tested the psychometric properties of a tablet-based app designed to measure early literacy skills. Tablet-based tests were also compared with…

Pau, Allan; Thangarajoo, Saraswathy; Samuel, Vijaya Paul; Wong, Lai Chun; Wong, Pak Fong; Matizha, Patricia; Nalliah, Sivalingam; Nadarajah, Vishna Devi – Journal of Academic Ethics, 2019
A script concordance test (SCT) was developed as an innovative tool for assessing ethical reasoning ability. An SCT of 12 medical ethical vignettes were constructed from the UNESCO Casebook on Human Dignity and Human Rights. The vignettes were reviewed by a panel of 15 medical experts before administration to a panel of 18 clinicians. The…

Abreu-Mendoza, Roberto A.; Chamorro, Yaira; Matute, Esmeralda – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2019
The goal of this study was to provide normative scores and examine the psychometric properties of the Math Computation subtest of the Wide Range Achievement Test--IV (WRAT-IV) for Mexican adolescents after the completion of junior high school. We group-administered this subtest to 1,318 first-year Mexican high school students. We then obtained its…

Alqarni, Abdulelah Mohammed – Journal on Educational Psychology, 2019
This study compares the psychometric properties of reliability in Classical Test Theory (CTT), item information in Item Response Theory (IRT), and validation from the perspective of modern validity theory for the purpose of bringing attention to potential issues that might exist when testing organizations use both test theories in the same testing…

Rubright, Jonathan D. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2018
Performance assessments, scenario-based tasks, and other groups of items carry a risk of violating the local item independence assumption made by unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models. Previous studies have identified negative impacts of ignoring such violations, most notably inflated reliability estimates. Still, the influence of this…

Mary Elizabeth Lockhart – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) influence almost every aspect of our daily lives. However, despite the high demand for STEM occupational talent, the STEM pipeline continues leaking, with less than one-sixth of high school students pursuing STEM majors and only 50% of entering STEM majors matriculating into STEM fields.…
