SITAC – Innovative Computerized Adaptive Testing System
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2019, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
The computerized adaptive testing is an approach of the differential assessment which adapts the questions that are asked to the candidate’s ability level. Thus, the computer selects and displays the questions, then records and processes the candidate’s answers. The items’ selection is adaptive and it depends, on one hand, on the candidate’s answers to the previous questions and on the statistical qualities of the items, on the other hand. As compared to the traditional testing methods, where all candidates receive the same items, the computerized adaptive testing is managing a higher percentage of items, with appropriate difficulty levels. The items’ adaptive selection process results in higher levels of the scores’ precision and shorter tests. SITAC - the Innovative Computerized Adaptive Testing System represents a complex and innovative software product based on a computerized adaptive testing platform through which the testing of the persons will be performed, for the purpose of estimating their abilities, based on the answer previously delivered.
