In light of the widespread adoption of technology-enhanced learning and assessment platforms, there is a growing demand for innovative, high-quality, and diverse assessment questions. Automatic Question Generation (AQG) has emerged as a valuable solution, enabling educators and assessment developers to efficiently produce a large volume of test…

The pervasive issue of cheating in educational tests has emerged as a paramount concern within the realm of education, prompting scholars to explore diverse methodologies for identifying potential transgressors. While machine learning models have been extensively investigated for this purpose, the untapped potential of TabNet, an intricate deep…

The launch of ChatGPT and the rapid proliferation of generative AI (GenAI) have brought transformative changes to education, particularly in the field of assessment. This has prompted a fundamental rethinking of traditional assessment practices, presenting both opportunities and challenges in evaluating student learning. While numerous studies…

Psychometricians have devoted much research and attention to categorical item responses, leading to the development and widespread use of item response theory for the estimation of model parameters and identification of items that do not perform in the same way for examinees from different population subgroups (e.g., differential item functioning…

In computerized adaptive testing, overexposure of items in the bank is a serious problem and might result in item compromise. We develop an item selection algorithm that utilizes the entire bank well and reduces the overexposure of items. The algorithm is based on collaborative filtering and selects an item in two stages. In the first stage, a set…

The significance of teacher's assessment literacy (AL) was originally captured by the 1990 standards for teacher's competence in educational assessment. Competence in assessment has changed with the widespread use of recent technology advancements in educational assessment. Consequently, new measures are needed to measure Teacher Assessment…

In this paper, we describe two empirical studies that demonstrate the application and modeling of keystroke logs in writing assessments. We illustrate two different approaches of modeling differences in writing processes: analysis of mean differences in handcrafted theory-driven features and use of large language models to identify stable personal…

This study presents the Cebeci Test of Creativity (CTC), a novel computerized assessment tool designed to address the limitations of traditional open-ended paper-and-pencil creativity tests. The CTC is designed to overcome the challenges associated with the administration and manual scoring of traditional paper and pencil creativity tests. In this…

The purpose of this study was to gauge the attitudes towards artificial intelligence (AI) use in the science classroom by science teachers at the start of generative AI chatbot popularity (March 2023). The lens of distributed cognition afforded an opportunity to gather thoughts, opinions, and perceptions from 24 secondary science educators as well…

Online learning has steadily increased since well before the COVID-19 pandemic (Seaman et al., 2018), but research has yet to explore online students' perceptions of online exam proctoring methods. The purpose of this exploratory study was to understand the perceptions of fully online students regarding types of proctoring at a large state…

Contribution: This article suggests a novel method for diagnosing a learner's cognitive proficiency using deep neural networks (DNNs) based on her answers to a series of questions. The outcome of the forecast can be used for adaptive assistance. Background: Often a learner spends considerable amounts of time in attempting questions on the concepts…

(1) Context: The growing accessibility of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, such as ChatGPT, poses a challenge to the integrity of online assessments in higher education. As AI becomes more integrated into academic contexts, educators face the complex task of maintaining assessment standards particularly within modern Virtual Learning…

Automated multiple-choice question (MCQ) generation is valuable for scalable assessment and enhanced learning experiences. How-ever, existing MCQ generation methods face challenges in ensuring plausible distractors and maintaining answer consistency. This paper intro-duces a method for MCQ generation that integrates reasoning-based explanations…

Background: Formative assessments build a positive learning environment and provide feedback to enhance learning. This study examined the impact of online formative and low-stake summative assessments on medical students' learning outcomes in the Clinically Oriented Anatomy course from 2016 to 2020. We aimed to demonstrate that formative…

Concerns over students engaging in various forms of academic misconduct persist, especially with the post-COVID-19 rise in online learning and assessment. Research has demonstrated a clear role of the personality trait psychopathy in cheating, yet little is known about why this relationship exists. Building on the research by Curtis et al.…
