Digitale Lehre an und rund um der Technischen Universität Graz
Sandra and I are organising a special track “Mashups for Learning” (MASHL2009) which will take place within the “International Conference on Interactive Computer Aided Learning” (ICL) in Villach, Austria.
Here a short introduction:
Here you will find detailed informations as well as the full call for papers.
Zusammen mit meinen Kollegen haben wir für die heurige ICL Konferenz einen Artikel über die Verwendung eines zusätzlichen Parameters bei einem Multiple-Choice Test (Feldstudie) geschrieben. Der Artikel ist hier online verfügbar.
Abstract:
This paper presents the results of an experiment with multiple-choice testing including confidence assessment. In a course at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) 432 students did a multiple-choice test (MCT) on the university’s online learning management system. For 172 students the test had been added a confidence parameter for each question, which allowed the students to state their confidence in their answers. The remaining 260 students doing a traditional MCT served as a control group. The results show that there is a relationship between the confidence parameter and the percentage of incorrect answers. Moreover the findings detail that the use of the confidence parameter leads to slightly poorer results.

My second talk at this year ICL conference is about the use of a confidence paramater within a Multiple-Choice Testing scenario. I show the results of this experiments.
