CO N T E N T: CONTINUED level of difficulty. N The Px need a complete understanding of the ground rules under which they will take the test. After the test is assembled and the directions are written, it is a good policy to review each part critically. The designer should consider each item from the Px’ point of view. The grammar should be checked and the following questions asked: N Are there questions that cover all the objectives covered by this test? N Does the number of test items adequately reflect the amount of time spent per objective? N Is the number of items included in the test in direct proportion to their importance in training? N Does each item really measure the Px’ attainment of the objective? If not, how could it be revised to do so? N Is each set of directions clear? Do the directions apply to every item in the group, or do some items require specific directions? N Is there plenty of space to write the response? N Are tricky, obvious, or irrelevant questions avoided? N Is each item separate and independent from the rest of the items? N Are similar items grouped together? N Is the test designed so that it is easy to score? N Will Px be provided with meaningful AdvAnced TrAining of TrAiners 39 UNIT 3/OBJECTIVE #5 m E T h O D O lO g y: CONTINUED N Complete the lecture by discussion how to standardize test administration N Ask if Px have any further questions.
UNIT 3/OBJECTIVE #5 CO N T E N T: CONTINUED feedback about their answers? When possible, the test should be pilot tested before it is used in regular training programs. After the test has been administered to 1 or 2 groups of Px, the designer needs to analyze and improve it. The weaknesses that are revealed should be corrected and the test continually revised. Administering a Knowledge-Based Assessment It is important for the trainer to maximize the test-taking performance of each Px being tested. If the administrative procedures for one group are changed slightly from those used with another group, neither group may obtain its maximum performance. Standard procedures become very important when comparisons are made among training groups. Trainers should prepare themselves before testing by following these suggestions: N Review the test procedures; N Make certain that the testing room is ready; N Make sure that supplies for the test are adequate; N Make arrangements so those Px being tested will not be interrupted; N Refrain from any special coaching on the subject matter of the test in an attempt to reduce anxiety and frustration; N Rehearse by reading the directions; and 40 m E T h O D O lO g y: CONTINUED Discussion (30 min.): The trainer should: N Start the lecture by asking Px to describe how they prepare themselves before administering a knowledgebased assessment (test). Complete the discussion with information found in the content. N Ask Px what factors can affect test administration. Complete the discussion with information found in the content. N Discuss how to standardize procedures when administering tests. N Ask for questions. AdvAnced TrAining of TrAiners
