Seminar Title:<\/td>\nRasch measurement to improve fairness in tests<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Speakers:<\/td>\nDaniel Ruelle<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director: Teaching and Learning Excellence Center<\/p>\n

Senior Lecturer: College of Arts & Sciences<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Time:<\/td>\nWednesday, June 7, 2023 | 3:30 \u2013 4:30 PM<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Venue:<\/td>\nC202 Lecture Hall, VinUniversity<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Scenario 1:<\/strong>\u00a0Student A gets 14\/20 on a final exam. Student B does a re-sit with different questions and gets 16\/20. Is student B \u201c10% better\u201d than student A? What if the questions were easier \/ more difficult in the re-sit version?<\/p>\n

Scenario 2:<\/strong>\u00a0A professor co-teaches a class with another professor. When marking final presentations, Prof. A \u2013 famous among students for being a \u201cstrict marker\u201d \u2013 awards one group 79%. Prof. B \u2013 rumored to be a \u201cgenerous marker\u201d \u2013 awards 92%. Whose scores are \u201cfair\u201d and \u201ccorrect\u201d? What if the students in the group are all majors in X, the same field as Prof. B? Is there any hidden bias affecting Prof. B\u2019s scores?<\/p>\n

In this research seminar, we will explore these scenarios and how Rasch measurement helps us go beyond traditional test theories, leveling the playing field for all test takers.<\/p>\n

By attending this session, you’ll have a better understanding of:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The core principles of Rasch measurement including invariance, latent traits, fit statistics, and their role in promoting test fairness.<\/li>\n
  • The limitations of using raw scores and percentages in making assessment decisions.<\/li>\n
  • How poorly functioning questions can negatively impact test result interpretations.<\/li>\n
  • Issues with human raters (rater-mediated assessment) and how Rasch can minimize their impact.<\/li>\n
  • How WINSTEPS and FACETS software can provide insight into your test data to make better assessment decisions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Analysis data from actual exams will be used in the seminar. The highlight of the seminar will be a practical activity where your\u00a0anonymous ratings on some sample performances will be analyzed live using FACETS software, showcasing how Rasch measurement can be applied in practice to calculate fair scores, reveal unintentional bias, unreliable test items, and other interesting findings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
