摘要: Recent years have seen increased application of Computer Assisted Assessment (CAA) in education at various levels, and a variety computer software systems been developed for use computer-based testing analysis. However, many existing system are primarily designed to provide objective assessment students analysis test items. The present study presents the development Design, Analysis Testing System (CADATS) that can be used by primary secondary schools other organisations undertake assisted assessment. incorporates an Item Response Theory (IRT) model – Rasch facilitate administration IRT based tests on computers items students’ performance using modern theories. Specifically, has created design (CBTs), including Adaptive Tests (CATs), diagnostic both individual school levels order identify curriculum areas where under performing.
