No topic is more central to innovation and current practice in
testing and assessment today than computers and the Internet.
This timely publication highlights four main themes that define
current issues, technical advances and applications of
computer-based testing: Advances in computer-based testing -- new
test designs, item selection algorithms, exposure control issues
and methods, and new tests that capitalize on the power of computer
technology. Operational issues -- systems design, test security,
and legal and ethical matters. New and improved uses -- for tests
in employment and credentialing. The future of computer-based
testing -- identifying potential issues, developments, major
advances and problems to overcome.
Written by internationally recognized contributors, each chapter
focuses on issues of control, quality, security and technology.
These issues provide the basic structure for the International Test
Commission's new "Guidelines on Computer-Based Testing and Testing
on the Internet." The contributions to this book have played a key
role in the development of these guidelines.
"Computer-Based Testing and the Internet" is a comprehensive
guide for all professionals, academics and practitioners working in
the fields of education, credentialing, personnel testing and
organizational assessment. It will also be of value to students
developing expertise in these areas.
