Abstract

This paper presents the design and a preliminary assessment of an online assessment system for learning purposes. The prototype aims to enhance learning by helping teachers teach Key Stage 3 (KS3) Mathematics in Hong Kong The system was built on the concept domain model and the Rasch model to provide an adapting feature to students, such as, navigation support, optimal study path and direct guidance. This is based on the Response Theory (IRT) model to determine students' estimated ability level.. When an individual student enters the system, different problems depending on student's estimated ability level will be assigned to students. Once the system senses an individual student's responses are converging to a particular competence level, the system immediately calculates the student's estimated ability level, identifies his strengths and weaknesses, etc. An immediate score, solution of items, feedback recommended study path and direct guidance can be give instantaneously.
