Abstract:
Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) have long been the backbone of standardized testing in academia and industry. Correspondingly, there is a constant need for the authors of MCQs to write and refine new questions for new versions of standardized tests as well as to support measuring performance in the emerging massive open online courses, (MOOCs). Research that explores what makes a question difficult, or what questions distinguish higher-performing students from lower-performing students can aid in the creation of the next generation of teaching and evaluation tools.

Abstract:
Multiple-choice questions are one of the questions commonly used in assessments. It is widely used because this type of examination can be an effective and reliable way to examine the level of student’s knowledge. So far, this type of examination can either be marked by hand or with specialised answer sheets and scanning equipment. There are specialised answer sheets and scanning equipment to mark multiple-choice questions automatically. However, these are expensive, specialised and restrictive answer sheets and optical mark recognition scanners. This research aims to design and implement a mu

Abstract:
The multiple-choice test question is a popular item format used for tests ranging from classroom assessments to professional licensure exams. The popularity of this format stems from its administration and scoring efficiencies. The most common multiple-choice format consists of a stem that presents a problem to be solved accompanied by a single correct answer and two, three, or four incorrect answers. A well-constructed item using this format can result in a high quality assessment of an examinee's knowledge, skills and abilities. However, for some complex, higher-order knowledge, skills and a

The University of Pretoria has experienced a significant increase in student numbers in recent years. This increase has necessarily impacted on the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics.

The disproportion between teaching staff and the lecturing load and research demands has led to an excessive grading and administrative load on staff.

However, a previous study found that among the different chemistry topics, students consider organic chemistry to be one of the hardest (Childs & Sheehan, 2009). Another study found that difficulty in learning organic chemistry is among the main reasons why students leave the science field (Lovecchio & Dundes, 2002).

Academic assessment that is used to assist in producing knowledge having a lasting effect should be the concern of all stakeholders. Subjective assessment contributes to achieving this type of knowledge. In particular for multi-steps questions (MSQ) human assessors play important roles. This evaluation includes assessing solution strategies, working produced from employing those strategies, and the final answer. This assessment can reveal levels of conceptual understanding displayed by students. Subjective assessment gives options to students to express their understanding of the topic. Howeve

Every year, technology keeps expanding and progressing, which leads to new ideas and new uses of technology in all kinds of areas, and education is no exception. The concept of using games as a mean of education is old, however, due to the recent advances of technology and the creation of videogames, the concept became more popular. With benefits ranging from a deeper understand-ing of the subject taught in the game, to various other skills obtained passively from playing games, educational games are an idea that should be focused on and developed further.

We apply the coreference resolution to the issue of automatic question generation. Here we have three types of target key: pronoun, pleonastic pronoun, and NP.

This paper mainly discusses two widely-used imputing methods for imputing missing values in analyzing data of single-response question and multiple-response question, respectively.

Abstract:
<p>Assessment of student learning is ubiquitous in higher education chemistry courses because it is the mechanism by which instructors can assign grades, alter teaching practice, and help their students to succeed. One type of assessment that is popular in general chemistry courses, yet difficult to create effectively, is the multiple-choice assessment. Despite its popularity, little is known about the extent that multiple-choice general chemistry exams adhere to accepted design practices or the processes that general chemistry instructors engage in while creating these assessments.
