| Abstract: | This paper examines item banking within computer-based
instructional systems from both a systems and a
measurement perspective. Traditionally, computer-aided
instruction involves little testing, although there
is a trend to incorporate posttests in the sessions.
However, computer-managed instruction has incorporated
testing since its inception. The tests employed
are similar in most respects to teacher-made classroom
tests. The test results are used as the basis for diagnosis,
prescription, and management procedures for individual
or small groups of students. At the classroom
level, test banking may be more appropriate than item
banking. Because of the tight linkage of the tests to
instructional procedures, the basic measurement issue
appears to be the degree to which the approaches
evolved from standardized achievement testing can be
applied to the large number of short tests employed in
computer-based instructional systems. |
