A Web-based System for Assurance of Assessment Quality and Diagnosis of Student Performance

After marking all student responses in an exam conducted in a school, different statistics and graphs could be compiled to diagnose overall student performance, and item and paper quality. However, this involves various formulae, algorithms and complicated compilations. To facilitate the preparation of various statistics and graphs for such a diagnosis, Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Anthority has developed a web-based system, called Examinations and Assessment Quality-assurance Platform (AQP) for schools. It is expected that AQP could inform school teachers about achievements of students and quality of different items and papers. Accordingly, AQP provides three perspectives of analysis, namely (i) Paper, (ii) Item and (iii) Student. With these analysis results, teachers could have a direction to improve the paper and item design, and strengthen the weakness of their students.Besides, AQP provides utilities for school teachers to form various teams. Being members of a team, they could study results of an analysis conducted by the other member and share their own views. Moreover, school teachers could store quality items in the system as an item bank. A test could then be automatically generated by drawing items banks according to a set of criteria given by school teachers.
