The examination of the testing mode effect has received increased attention as higher education has shifted to remote testing during the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe the testing mode effect consists of four components: the ability to physically write on the test, the method of answer recording, the proctoring/testing environment, and the effect…

This study aimed to develop a valid and reliable scale that reveals secondary school pupils' attitudes toward science literacy. The survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The validity and reliability study of the scale was carried out on secondary school pupils attending public schools in Turkey in the…

This research aimed to develop and validate a rubric to assess Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots' effectiveness in accomplishing tasks, particularly within educational contexts. Given the rapidly growing integration of AI in various sectors, including education, a systematic and robust tool for evaluating AI chatbot performance is essential.…

While enabling students to refer to and build on peer-produced work (termed 'citing' herein) during content creation appears pedagogically promising, its associated learning effects remain under-studied. This research aimed at examining the effects of online citing of peer-generated assessment items during student test-construction on promoting…

Over the last several years, nationally disseminated course-based under graduate research experiences (CUREs) have emerged as an alternative to developing a novel CURE from scratch, but objective assessment of these multi-institution (network) CUREs across institutions is challenging due to differences in student populations, instructors, and…

Teachers are key users of classroom assessment data; however, their needs and preferences are often overlooked in the design and development of the assessments themselves. We used principles of Human-Centered Design (HCD) to systematically solicit, study, and integrate teachers' needs in the design and development of a classroom-based early…

Integrated reading-into-writing assessment has become increasingly common in second language English for Academic Purposes assessment. It is viewed as a means of potentially increasing the authenticity and therefore validity of assessment that aims to measure a candidate's readiness for the demands of academic writing. While there is a body of…

This study aimed to examine the practices of EFL teachers in test construction. It was conducted in six purposively selected secondary schools. The study addressed the following question: What are the practices of EFL teachers in test construction? The theoretical basis of the study was Bloom's taxonomy. The design of the study was a convergent…

This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties (factor structure, reliability and construct validity) of the Motivation of User-generated Technical Instructional Videos (MUTIV) scale. Employing a cross-sectional research design, two rounds of self-administered surveys were conducted in mainland China (N = 271/N = 318). Phase 1 involved…

Bias assessment (systematic errors) is fundamental in industry and service laboratories, where reliable results must be obtained to give correct answers to specific problems. Therefore, knowledge and practice in quality methodologies is of fundamental importance for students. Unfortunately, laboratory lessons often focus on connecting theory and…

The period of a child's growth and development that is most notable is from 0 to 8 years old. These are the years when all that is learned is laid down. Putting strong foundations in place today will yield big dividends later. Greater learning in the classroom and better educational results have a positive social and economic impact on society.…

The current study adds to a growing body of behavioral research aimed at learning about changes in behavior over time. In this proof-of-concept study, functional analyses were conducted every 6-8 weeks with eight children diagnosed with ASD receiving early intervention services at a community-based clinic. The goal of this study was to develop a…

The "Statistics Teaching Inventory" (STI) was designed to assess the teaching practices of U.S.-based, college-level introductory statistics instructors in a variety of institutions and departments. This instrument has now been updated to reflect current trends and recommendations in statistics education. In this study, we used the STI…

Background/Context: Social network analysis has been used to demonstrate an association between individuals' relationships and their engagement in areas such as public health (Perry & Pescosolido, 2015) and teacher professional development (Penuel, 2009). We extend and apply this approach to the higher education context. We operationalize…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming multiple facets of the competitive business world and education. Despite this, the full potential of AI applications within education remains unclear because of the lack of a comprehensive framework on how to use AI in developing assessments across various academic disciplines. While incorporating AI…
