Evidence-centered design

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Evidence Centered Design is a meta-framework for the design of assessments,[1] and much of the development and administration of them, as well.[2] The development and popularization of Evidence Centered Design within the larger field of assessment has been lead by Robert J. Mislevy and his major co-authors.

Evidence Centered Design is the most prominent of the prominent Principled Assessment Design approach and is the model upon which many others have been built,[3] including Huff, Nichols & Schneider particular version of Principled Assessment Design[4] and Rigorous Test Development.[5]

Layers

[edit]

The meta-framework of Evidence Centered Design has five layers.[6]

  • Domain Analysis
  • Domain Modelling
  • Conceptual Assessment Framework
  • Assessment Implementation
  • Assessment Administration
