Introduction: Item response theory (IRT) has received much attention in validation of assessment instrument because it allows the estimation of students' ability from any set of the items. Item response theory allows the difficulty and discrimination levels of each item on the test to be estimated. In the framework of IRT, item characteristics are…

Kam, Chester Chun Seng – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
When constructing measurement scales, regular and reversed items are often used (e.g., "I am satisfied with my job"/"I am not satisfied with my job"). Some methodologists recommend excluding reversed items because they are more difficult to understand and therefore engender a second, artificial factor distinct from the…

Wengrowicz, Niva; Lavi, Rea; Kohen, Hanan; Dori, Dov – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
As part of the design, development, and deployment of a massive open online course (MOOC) on model-based systems engineering, we introduced MORTIF--Modeling with Real-Time Informative Feedback, a new learning-by-doing feature that enables the learner to model, receive detailed feedback, and resubmit improved solutions. We examined the pedagogical…

Menold, Natalja – Field Methods, 2023
While numerical bipolar rating scales may evoke positivity bias, little is known about the corresponding bias in verbal bipolar rating scales. The choice of verbalization of the middle category may lead to response bias, particularly if it is not in line with the scale polarity. Unipolar and bipolar seven-category rating scales in which the…

Jeffs, Cheryl; Nelson, Nancy; Grant, Kimberley A.; Nowell, Lorelli; Paris, Brit; Viceer, Nazia – Professional Development in Education, 2023
Feedback is an expected and essential part of academic work; however, giving and receiving feedback often causes angst and distress, an aspect not often addressed. To foster conversations about feedback for teaching development, we developed an interactive event designed to explore and practice giving and receiving feedback. A mixed-methods…

In a peer-review of teaching (PRT) program, we aimed to i) use pre- and post-observation questionnaires to enhance self-reflection, and ii) perform a nominal group technique (NGT) to agree on improvements. The questionnaires showed that PRT helped discovering new weaknesses but not new strengths, and that preconceived negative feelings vanished…

This paper discusses teacher capacities for implementing learning-focused feedback processes within the social contexts of feedback regimes. Data are derived from longitudinal interviews carried out with six recipients of an award for good feedback practice; supplemented by documentary analysis of feedback artefacts; and an interview with the key…

Maila Pentucci; Chiara Laici – Research on Education and Media, 2023
Screen-mediated teaching at the university level has necessitated a redesign of learning environments across various dimensions, encompassing epistemological, relational, and pragmatic aspects. How can the Digital Learning Ecosystem nurture these dimensions? Does the ecosystem initiate a feedback loop between the teacher and the student,…

Danny L'Boy; R. Nazim Khan – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Statistical literacy has a large and important role in the teaching of statistics. Most mathematics and statistics courses are hierarchical, and the earlier material forms the foundation for later material. We construct a hierarchical structure for an introductory statistics course using Rasch analysis of the student scripts for the final…

Indirect questioning attempts to overcome social desirability bias in survey research. However, to properly analyze the resulting data, it is crucial to understand how it impacts responses. This study analyzes results from a randomized experiment that tests whether direct versus indirect questioning methods lead to different results in a sample of…

In this paper, we draw upon Rosenblatt's transactional theory of reading to frame six readings of a picture book. The picture book, "There's a Ghost in This House" by Oliver Jeffers, was selected for a children's literature reading group which brought together literacy researchers and teacher educators to share their encounters with the…

Speck, Bailey; Isenhour, Jennifer; Gao, Mengyu; Conradt, Elisabeth; Crowell, Sheila E.; Raby, K. Lee – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Research suggests that women's autonomic nervous system responses to infant cries capture processes that affect their parenting behaviors. The aim of this study was to build on prior work by testing whether pregnant women's autonomic responses to an unfamiliar infant crying also predict their infants' emerging regulation abilities. Participants…

Tufford, Lea; Lee, Barbara; Thieu, Vivian; Zhao, Rose – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2023
Peer-to-peer role-play in social work education continues to have widespread use in the teaching of generalist social work skills. For many students, however, the unfamiliarity of role-playing the client in conjunction with discussing clinical concerns may lead them to become emotionally dysregulated during the social work-client encounter. To…
