Gorbett, Luke J.; Chapamn, Kayla E.; Liberatore, Matthew W. – Advances in Engineering Education, 2022
Spreadsheets are a core computational tool for practicing engineers and engineering students. While Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and other spreadsheet tools have some differences, numerous formulas, functions, and other tasks are common across versions and platforms. Building upon learning science frameworks showing that interactive activities…

Nielsen, Tine – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
The relevance of academic self-efficacy for educational outcomes is well documented. Pre-academic self-efficacy has hardly been studied, and only one study was found to include an assessment of the measurement invariance of the scale used. The aims were to validate the Pre-Academic Learning Self-Efficacy (PAL-SE) scale in a non-university higher…

PaaBen, Benjamin; Dywel, Malwina; Fleckenstein, Melanie; Pinkwart, Niels – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Item response theory (IRT) is a popular method to infer student abilities and item difficulties from observed test responses. However, IRT struggles with two challenges: How to map items to skills if multiple skills are present? And how to infer the ability of new students that have not been part of the training data? Inspired by recent advances…

Shah, Rabia Minai – ProQuest LLC, 2022
The purpose of this study was to determine any relationship between three factors of the TPACK model and the impact of age and gender of foreign language teachers who teach in post-secondary education. The goal was to help instructional designers to develop need-based training for in-service language teaching faculty in higher education.…

Bernhardt, Amery E. – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This quantitative correlational study dives into the heart of understanding the significance of model fidelity for implementing school threat assessment teams. The target population was instructional staff and threat assessment team members from schools in Dutchess, Putnam, and Westchester Counties in New York State that use the Comprehensive…

Wallace, Matthew P.; Ke, Haijiao – TEFLIN Journal: A publication on the teaching and learning of English, 2023
This study examined the content alignment between an English as a foreign language skills curriculum and a provincial language test in China. When there is misalignment in the content between the standards of a curriculum and a test, conclusions about student abilities and teaching effectiveness can be questioned. To examine this, three categories…

Kurniasih, Nia; Emilia, Emi; Sujatna, Eva Tuckyta Sari – International Journal of Language Testing, 2023
This study aimed at evaluating a PISA-like reading test developed by teachers participating in the teacher training for teaching PISA-like reading. To serve this purpose, an experimental test was administered to 107 students aged 15-16 using a set of text and questions constructed according to the criteria of the PISA Reading test Level 1. Item…

Mazachowsky, Tessa R.; Atance, Cristina M.; Rutt, Joshua L.; Mahy, Caitlin E. V. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
The ability to project oneself forward in time and imagine a future episode, known as episodic foresight (EpF), is an important aspect of future thinking. EpF tasks often involve children choosing an item for a future episode, yet the degree to which future projection is required to succeed -- versus memory or semantic associations -- has been…

Goolsby-Cole, Cody; Bass, Sarah M.; Stanwyck, Liz; Leupen, Sarah; Carpenter, Tara S.; Hodges, Linda C. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2023
During the pandemic, the use of question pools for online testing was recommended to mitigate cheating, exposing multitudes of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students across the globe to this practice. Yet instructors may be unfamiliar with the ways that seemingly small changes between questions in a pool can expose…

Kritika Thapa – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Measurement invariance is crucial for making valid comparisons across different groups (Kline, 2016; Vandenberg, 2002). To address the challenges associated with invariance testing such as large sample size requirements, the complexity of the model, etc., applied researchers have incorporated parcels. Parcels have been shown to alleviate skewness,…

Biology education plays a vital role in nurturing the understanding of learners about the intricacy of life. Various efforts have emerged to strengthen learning biological concepts but there were still studies that showed that learners have low mastery in some aspects. To determine how well students understood various biological topics, including…

Chengyu Cui; Chun Wang; Gongjun Xu – Grantee Submission, 2024
Multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) models have generated increasing interest in the psychometrics literature. Efficient approaches for estimating MIRT models with dichotomous responses have been developed, but constructing an equally efficient and robust algorithm for polytomous models has received limited attention. To address this gap,…

Park, Sung Eun; Ahn, Soyeon; Zopluoglu, Cengiz – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2021
This study presents a new approach to synthesizing differential item functioning (DIF) effect size: First, using correlation matrices from each study, we perform a multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) that examines measurement invariance of a test item between two subgroups (i.e., focal and reference groups). Then we synthesize, across…

Swit, Cara S. – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
The goal of the study was to examine preschool teachers' (N = 96) and parents' (N = 82) perceptions of seriousness, empathy, likelihood to intervene, and intervention responses for perpetrators and victims of hypothetical scenarios depicting relational and physical aggression. After establishing differential associations between relational and…

Ferretti, Federica; Bolondi, Giorgio – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
In the frame of national Italian standardized assessments in mathematics, a didactic phenomenon has been observed concerning students' behaviour when answering an item: students are inclined towards not accepting an output which is not clearly recognizable with something distinct from the starting inputs. The observed effect seems to originate…
