Evidence--Centered Assessment Design Wiki

This is Wiki is meant as an open discussion forum for practitioners and students of Evidence--Centered Assessment Design (ECD). All are welcome to browse the forum, follow this link if you want to join the discussion

A few starting points:

• Evidence--Centered Assessment Design (ECD)
• Why an ECD Wiki?
• A brief history of ECD
• ECD projects
• An ECD glossary (Fair warning, we plan to use this in our upcoming book, Bayesian Networks in Educational Assessment)
• 5 Exercises A number of exercises from a lecture I gave at Florida State University
• An incomplete survey of Software for working with Bayesian networks.
• ACED Adaptive Content using Evidence-based Diagnosis, an e-Learning system that used ECD and Bayesian networks. Descriptions of the model and the data from a field trial are available here.
• BN Extras and errata from our new book Bayesian Networks in Educational Assessment.
• Examples Examples of Bayesian networks, many at least partially built using ECD.

About the Software

The Evidence--Centered Design Wiki is based on PmWiki:

• PmWiki documentation is available at PmWiki.DocumentationIndex.
• What is the WikiWikiWeb?
• Basic Editing describes how to create pages in PmWiki.
• Practice editing pages in the WikiSandbox.

This Wiki has the following additional packages installed:

• Bibtex Ref which allows references to the Bibliography?
• Mime TeX which allows embedding T_EX (or L^AT_EX) formulas by enclosing them in {$...$}

"These two features have been broken by a recent upgrade of PHP. I've gotten the main site working, but it may take me some time to get equations and references fixed. Sorry, --Russell"
