I’ve had the privilege these past three years of building a team that is trying to contribute to a more evidence-based education system. It’s not an easy job, but it’s one of the best across the country if you wake up every day and wonder: “how could this be better?”

Much interest lies in the growth in educational achievement that occurs over the course of a child’s schooling. Can the #Rasch Growth Model be used to measure differences in achievement trajectories? #Free2Read in June. @ACARAeduau @acereduau @dr_dan_c doi.org/10.1177/000494…

Even more than this, @zidman - measurement precision is maximised when the probability of responding correctly is 50-50. We build adaptive tests that aim to balance this level of challenge with engagement and motivation such that the best test is one where students score 60-70%
