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.
