Abstract
The study aims to establish the quality of assessment instrument that is administered in the final term examination among pre-service elementary teachers. The test is a 50-item multiple choices type that covered the topics discussed during the term. It was administered among 106 second year students who were enrolled in the course. Quality of the test was determined through face validity, content validity, reliability, index of difficulty, index of discrimination, and item distracters of the test. Face validation of the test was done using the criteria and guidelines while content validation was determined through the Table of Specifications (TOS) of the test. Internal consistency of the test was established using Kuder-Richardson Formula 21 (KRF21). The index of difficulty, index of discrimination, and measure of attractiveness of item distracters of the test were determined using the item analysis procedures and applying the corresponding formulas needed. The results revealed that the test has its face validity, acceptable content validity, and high internal consistency. Item analysis also disclosed that most of the items have moderate index of difficulty, are discriminating and have effective distracters.
本研究旨在建立职前小学教师期末考试中使用的评估工具的质量。该测试是一个50项多项选择的类型,涵盖了学期中讨论的主题。该课程在106名二年级学生中实施。测试的质量通过测试的面孔有效性、内容有效性、信度、难度指数、辨别指数和项目干扰物来确定。使用标准和指南进行测试的表面验证,同时通过测试的规格表(TOS)确定内容验证。使用Kuder Richardson Formula 21(KRF21)建立测试的内部一致性。使用项目分析程序并应用所需的相应公式来确定测试的项目干扰物的难度指数、辨别指数和吸引力测量。结果表明,该测试具有表面有效性、可接受的内容有效性和较高的内部一致性。项目分析还显示,大多数项目的难度指数适中,具有辨别力,并具有有效的干扰物。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
