Gezer, Tuba; Wang, Chuang; Polly, Andrew; Martin, Christie; Pugalee, David; Lambert, Richard – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2021
This study used hierarchical linear modeling to examine the relationship between an internet-based mathematics formative assessment and data from a mathematics summative assessment for primary grade learners (ages 5-7). Results showed a positive relationship between formative assessment data related to the concepts of counting and decomposing…

Sahin, Melek Gülsah; Öztürk, Nagihan Boztunç – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2019
New statistical methods are being added to the literature as a result of scientific developments each and every day. This study aims at investigating one of these, Maximum Likelihood Score Estimation with Fences (MLEF) method, in ca-MST. The results obtained from this study will contribute to both national and international literature since there…

Sangwin, Christopher J.; Jones, Ian – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2017
In this paper we report the results of an experiment designed to test the hypothesis that when faced with a question involving the inverse direction of a reversible mathematical process, students solve a multiple-choice version by verifying the answers presented to them by the direct method, not by undertaking the actual inverse calculation.…

Nelson, Peter M.; Parker, David C.; Zaslofsky, Anne F. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2016
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the importance of growth in math fact skills within the context of overall math proficiency. Data for 1,493 elementary and middle school students were included for analysis. Regression models were fit to examine the relative value of math fact fluency growth, prior state test performance, and a fall…

Price, Beth; Steinle, Vicki; Stacey, Kaye; Gvozdenko, Eugene – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2014
This study reports on the use of formative, diagnostic online assessments for the topic percentages. Two new item formats (drag-drop and slider) are described. About one-third of the school students (Years 7 to 9) could, using a slider, estimate "80% more than" a given length, in contrast with over two-thirds who could estimate "90%…

McDonald, Jacqueline; And Others – Focus on Learning Problems in Mathematics, 1992
Reports a study to explore student's computational performance on computer-administered testing situations while at the computer. Students from grades 3-6 (n=100) were randomly assigned to treatment order, computer assessment first or paper/pencil assessment first. Significant differences occurred in three areas: completion time, number of mental…
