An awesome PAP Convention experience 👌 #PAPConvention2018 #Psychometricians #Psychologists #ThankyouPAPInc (at Philippine International Convention Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoCHRRlhKoRc1eXcxklMHL0XCDXunKEBdX6klk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rrt17xa3l4an
Thank you for the Thanksgiving Mass/Event my beloved alma matter ❤ Our success is yours as well. The warm greetings and support were all overwhelming. We couldn't achieve this milestone without the help of everyone, from the faculty members of College of Arts and Sciences to the City Government. I am proud to say TCU is now at the 28th among 50 schools who performed well at BLEPP 2017. Also at the 37th places for being one of the 39 best schools for Psychology in the Philippines. Viva Sikolohiya! 👏 #psychometricians (c) @chiballester (at Taguig City University)
Converting your exam from paper based to computer based
Prometric has extensive experience in transitioning programs from paper-based delivery to computer-based delivery. The test development department is staffed with psychometricians who have directly participated in the research and application of methodologies to help ensure minimal impact on candidate performance during such a transition. As computer-based testing (CBT) has become extremely prolific in the last 10-15 years, the amount of industry research on the comparability between paper-based and computer-based exams has grown considerably. These sentences seem to indicate that there is or was a problem with CBT. Research has and still demonstrates that CBT is the fairest means of ensuring access, eliminating bias, such as gender bias, and eliminating proven problems in the integrity chain such as found in the printing and shipping of papers.
In migrating an examination programs, there are several steps that should be considered. Although there are a large number of individual tasks, the major activities include the following:
Evaluation of current item bank
An evaluation of the current paper-based item bank is typically done at the beginning of the project to ensure the applicability to a computer-based environment and to gather baseline statistics for future evaluation.
Modification of item presentation
If necessary, Prometric makes recommendations on individual item modifications to increase the likelihood of equitable performance on the overall exam in a computer-based environment.
Prepare a communication effort to the candidates
Prometric works with clients to ensure that an appropriate communication campaign is developed for the candidate population prior to the introduction of a new delivery model.
Prepare sample exams and/or tutorials
Prometric prepares practice exams and/or tutorials that are provided to candidate prior to a live exam to increase the comfort level of the candidate population with the test delivery model
Exam and item analysis
Using the baseline data, Prometric will evaluate exam and item level performance to ensure comparability of candidate performance.
Just some thoughts... :)
Hey, there! Just wanna say a few things: I am not affiliated with any review centers or schools. My efforts for creating this blog has been an idea of my college friends who encouraged me to do so in order to guide our future psychometricians in reviewing. Self-review has been my key to pass the boards and I believe that you can pass, too, given the circumstances that God will allow. Now, if you believe in your own capabilities, then I guess this is the site for you. :)
