Abstract | This paper presents six steps in test construction generally recommended by measurement textbook authors. The focus is primarily on paper-and-pencil achievement tests as used by class instructions, although the discussion touches on the construction of other types of assessment. The six steps are: (1) determine the test purpose; (2) determine the test content, including difficulty level; (3) determine the test format; (4) construct an initial pool of test items; (5) revise the items using input from qualified colleagues or other sources; and (6) pretest and revise the items. Developing a good test requires both effort and know-how. (Contains one table and eight references.) (SLD) |
