본 연구의 3단계 선다형 평가 문항은 과학적 결과와 그 결과가 나온 과정 또 그러한 과정에 관계된 과학적 개념을 함께 물어 봄으로써 과학적 탐구 사고력을 의미있게 평가할 수 있고 객관식 문항형태이지만 객관식 평가의 단점인 추측의 요인을 주관식 응답에 준하여 거의 제거할 수 있다고 판단된다. 오랜 기간동안 1단계 4지선다형 또는 5지 선다형 시험에 익숙해 있던 학생들은 3단계 선다형 문항에 매우 적용하기 어렵겠고 교사들 또한 문항을 제작하는데 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하겠지만 평가가 학생들의 학습에 미치는 영향을 고려한다면 3단계 선다형 문항의 현장 도입은 절실히 필요하다. 이의 도입은 학생들의 탐구사고력의 신장에 큰 기여를 할 것으로 판단된다.

The present study aims to demonstrate that it is possible to objectively evaluate the competency (referred to as graduate attributes or program outcomes) of graduates of engineering education programs. To strengthen the link between engineering education accreditation and the qualification/certification system of engineering professionals, referred to as K-Engineering Professional (K-EP), individually assuring the quality of accredited graduates using multiple-choice test as main assessment tool is proposed. Test questions related to the basic vocational skills of NCS are developed for seven of the 10 program outcomes of the ABEEK KEC2015. The three program outcomes, PO1, PO3, and PO5, which need to fully accommodate the characteristics of each disciplinary field, are excluded. A pilot test involving graduates of eight accredited programs is conducted. Applying on Rasch model based on Item Response Theory (IRT), the item difficulty, fit and discrimination of multiple choice test are demonstrated. The pilot study strongly suggests that individual competency evaluation is possible at a certain level for seven program outcomes tested. For PO1, PO3, and PO5, however, questions that address the characteristics of each disciplinary field need to be devised. If a suitable pool of questions is built, it can be used as a program outcomes assessment tool by the accredited programs.

The purpose of this study was to explore the adaptability of U.S. multiple-choice items to measure Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT) in Korea. For this purpose, the authors selected the number and operations form B which was developed by Learning Mathematics for Teaching (LMT) project at the University of Michigan and then adapted items in terms of general cultural context, school cultural context, mathematical substances, and language in Korea. The survey was administrated to 77 Korean in-service teachers who had more than three years of teaching experiences. Based on the survey, the authors compared the data to that of U.S. teachers who had participated California's Mathematics Professional Development Institute. As a result, the survey measures less knowledge Korean teachers than more knowledgable Korean teachers and there are strong correlations of relative item difficulties between Korean teachers and U.S. teachers for both Content Knowledge (CK) items and Knowledge of Content and Students (KCS) items. This study implies the future direction for developing items to measure teacher knowledge as well as designing effective teacher education programs.

Purpose: To develop a Critical Thinking Skill Test for Nursing Students. Methods: The construct concepts were drawn from a literature review and in-depth interviews with hospital nurses and surveys were conducted among students (n=607) from nursing colleges. The data were collected from September 13 to November 23, 2012 and analyzed using the SAS program, 9.2 version. The KR 20 coefficient for reliability, difficulty index, discrimination index, item-total correlation and known group technique for validity were performed. Results: Four domains and 27 skills were identified and 35 multiple choice items were developed. Thirty multiple choice items which had scores higher than .80 on the content validity index were selected for the pre test. From the analysis of the pre test data, a modified 30 items were selected for the main test. In the main test, the KR 20 coefficient was .70 and Corrected Item-Total Correlations range was .11-.38. There was a statistically significant difference between two academic systems (p=.001). Conclusion: The developed instrument is the first critical thinking skill test reflecting nursing perspectives in hospital settings and is expected to be utilized as a tool which contributes to improvement of the critical thinking ability of nursing students.

In the era of the outcome-based education, multiple-choice test has been widely employed owing to its efficiency that enables educators to evaluate a quantity of students with much objectiveness. However, the prevalent test has not been reconsidered enough to overcome its apparent shortcomings: examiners' effort for developing plausible and faultless distracters defending from every falsification, and students' random guessing on key choices. For alleviating such defects, tiered test as an experimental format of multiple-choice tests has been suggested in science education. Since there has not accumulated much study on the implementation of tiered tests, our research aim is set to construct a framework suggesting statistical indexes for rationally discerning tiered units that develop an effective tiered test. Graded both by our tiered-scoring and by the conventional partial-scoring, the preliminary tiered test in secondary physics attests the improvement in its discrimination and difficulty distribution. The findings reveal that the two indexes discern effective tiered items: discrimination increase (Ct-p) and difficulty decrease (Dp-t). Based on the index information, 4 heterogeneous tier types are recommended in the content of secondary physics: directional manipulation, repeated calculation, diverse explanation, and plural variables.

Objectives : The evaluation of academic achievement is pivotal for establishing accurate direction and adequate level of medical education. The purpose of this study was to firstly establish innovative item analysis technique of Item Response Theory (IRT) for analyzing multiple-choice test of herbology in the traditional Korean medicine education which has not been available for the difficulty of test theory and statistical calculation. Methods : The answers of 390 students (2012-2018) to the 14 item herbology test in college of Korean medicine were used for the item analysis. As for the multidimensional analysis of item characteristics, difficulty, discrimination, and guessing parameters along with item-total correlation and percentage of correct answer were calculated using Classical Test Theory (CTT) and IRT. Results : The validity parameters of strong and weak items were illustrated in multiple perspectives. There were 4 items with six acceptable index scores, and 5 items with only one acceptable index score. The item discrimination of IRT was found to have no significant correlation with difficulty and discrimination indices of CTT emphasizing attention of professionals of medical education as for the test credibility. Conclusion : The critical suggestions for the development, utilization and revision of test items in the e-learning and evidence-based Teaching era were made based on the results of item analysis using IRT. The current study would firstly provide foundation for upgrading the quality of Korean medicine education using test theory.

이 연구는 과잉효능감과 과잉확신이 선다형과 서답형 평가에서 어떻게 나타나는지에 조사하였다. 이 연구를 위하여 204명의 여자중학교 학생들이 참여하였다. 선다형과 서답형으로 된 광합성 개념에 대한 검사도구를 사용하였으며, 각 문항마다 자신의 효능감과 확신을 척도로 나타나게 하였다. 연구결과 선다형과 서답형의 상관관계는 0.5가 채 되지 않았으며, 학생들이 생각하는 자신의 문제 해결 능력(효능감)과 실제 능력 간의 상관관계 역시 0.45가 되지 않았다. 학생들은 선다형 문제 해결 과정에서 지식에 대한 확신을 높이는 경향을 보였다. 선다형 문항을 먼저 수행한 집단에서는 그렇지 않은 집단에 비하여 과잉효능감과 과잉확신의 비율이 더 높게 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 학생들을 평가하는 과정에서 서답형의 사용을 늘릴 것을 제언한다. 또한 두 형태의 검사도구를 동시에 사용하게 될 경우 선다형 검사도구를 사후에 사용하여 학생들이 적절한 수준의 효능감과 확신을 유지할 수 있도록 해야 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to validate translated Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue(MAF) scale. The scale is a 16-item scale that measures four dimensions of fatigue : severity, distress, impact, timing. Fourteen items are numerical rating scales and 2 items have multiple choice responses. Data were collected from the 137 patients with rheumatoid arthritis after content validation. Criterion validity was tested by correlation coefficient with Piper Fatigue Scale, which resulted in 0.7573(p<.0000). Construct validity was tested by item analysis and factor analysis. Corrected item-total correlation coefficients were 0.63-0.88. And factor analysis showed 2 factors : fatigue degree factor and fatigue impact factor. These two factors explained 73.5% of total variance. Reliability of internal consistency was 0.96 in Cronbach's alpha. Further validation study is necessary in each factor in other settings with other subjects.

이 연구의 목적은 STS에 대해서 우리 나라 고등학생들이 가지는 견해를 알아보기 위한 평가 도구인 HS-VOSTS(Korean Students' Views on STS)를 개발하는 것이다. HS-VOSTS 문항을 개발하기 위해서 다음과 같은 연구과정을 수행하였다. 우선, 문헌과 선행 연구 고찰을 통해 4가지 범주의 10가지 하위 범주와 관련하여 23개의 논제를 포함하는 STS 범주 체계를 설정하였다. STS 범주 체계는 정의 과학의 외적 사회학 과학의 내적 사회학 인식론의 네 가지의 커다란 범주로 구성되어 있다. 다음은 STS 범주 체계를 기초로 4단계에 걸쳐 문항을 개발하였다. 1단계에서는 각 논제에 대한 짝진술문을 기초로 학생진술 문항지를 작성하여 772명의 고등학생들(16.3세)에게 투입하였다. 2단계에서는 짝진술문 중 하나를 제거하여 문항의 진술문으로하고, 분류된 공통견해를 답지로 하여 1차 다지선다형 문항지를 구성하였다. 3단계에서는 고등학생 28명(16.5세)을 대상으로 반구조화 면담을 실시하여 그 결과 분석을 통해 2차 다지선다형 문항지를 구성하였다. 4단계에서는 2차 다지선다형 문항지를 고등학생 306명에게 적용하여 낮은 반응비율을 보인 답지들을 제거하여 최종 검사도구를 완성하였다. HS-VOSTS는 학생들의 STS에 대한 신념 및 견해를 알아볼 수 있는 유용한 도구로서, 그 결과는 교사뿐만 아니라 교육과정 개발자, 교과서 저자, 교육정책 입안자들에게 많은 시사점을 줄 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.
