The Issue of Range Restriction in Bookmark Standard Setting

This article uses data from a large‐scale assessment program to illustrate the potential issue of range restriction with the Bookmark method in the context of trying to set cut scores to closely align with a set of college and career readiness benchmarks. Analyses indicated that range restriction issues existed across different response probability (RP) values and item response theory (IRT) models if one were to apply the Bookmark procedure using intact test forms. Results also suggested that range restriction may still be present if one had access to additional data from an item bank. This demonstration critically highlights challenges that may exist in some practical applications of the Bookmark method due items not being designed to cover the full range of examinee abilities.     

A Critical Look into the Beuk Standard-Setting Method

One commonly used compromise standard-setting method is the Beuk (1984) method. A key assumption of the Beuk method is that the emphasis given to the pass rate and the percent correct ratings should be proportional to the extent that the panelists agree on their ratings. However, whether the slope of Beuk line reflects the emphasis that panelists believe should be assigned to the pass rate and the percentage correct ratings has not be fully tested. In this article, I evaluate this critical assumption of the Beuk method by asking panelists to assign importance weights to their percentage correct and pass rate judgments. I show that in several cases that the emphasis suggested by the Beuk slope is noticeably different from what one would expect and is inconsistent with importance weight ratings. I also suggest two ways that the importance weights can be used to calculate alternate cut scores, and I show that one of the ways of calculating cut scores using the importance weights leads to larger potential differences in cut score estimates. I suggest that practitioners should consider collecting importance weights when the Beuk method is used for determining cut scores.

‘Operating on a Basis of Student Consent’: Peter Medway’s Work in Finding a Language

Written nearly 40 years ago, Peter Medway’s Finding a Language continues to be an arresting read, which offers a powerful vision of what might be possible in education. In this brief introduction, I set the work in context, referring to ideas that Pete engaged with and recalling a little of the times.     

建国前中国共产党资本主义观的回顾与思考

1919年五四爱国运动爆发，中国开启了新民主主义革命的进程。然而与一般的资本主义国家不同，在半殖民地半封建社会时期。中国的资本主义和资产阶级有着很大的特殊性。作为代表中国最广大人民根本利益的中国共产党从1921年成立到1949年新中国建立这近三十年的时间内，不可避免地与资本主义及其资产阶级发生了千丝万缕的关系，并在不同历史阶段采取了不同的策略。总结党在这一时期的历史经验对当下中国经济社会发展仍然有很大启示和教育意义。

一类微分算子特征值的算法

采用Galerkin方法来构造适当的基函数,计算一类微分算子特征值的近似值,且可用第n次近似值来估计第n-1次近似值的精确度.随着n的增大,特征值λk的精确度逐步提高,只要适当选取n,就可以求得所需精确度的特征值的近似值,此算法具有一定的实用价值和理论价值.
