Assessment of Problem Solving Using Simulations

<p>This volume explores the application of computer simulation technology to measurement issues in education -- especially as it pertains to problem based learning. Whereas most assessments related to problem solving are based on expensive and time consuming measures (i.e. think-aloud protocols or performance assessments that require extensive human rater scoring) this book relies on computerization of the major portion of the administration scoring and reporting of problem-solving assessments. It is appropriate for researchers instructors and graduate students in educational assessment educational technology and educational psychology.</p>
