Paper Abstract:
|
Effective and efficient measurement of the development of skill and knowledge, especially in domains of human activity
that involve complex and challenging problems, is important with regard to workplace and academic performance.
However, there has been little progress in the area of practical measurement and assessment, in part to the lack of
automated tools that are appropriate for assessing the acquisition and development of complex cognitive skills. In the last
two years, an international team of researchers have developed and validated an integrated set of assessment tools called
HIMATT (Highly Integrated Model Assessment Technology and Tools) which address this deficiency. HIMATT is
Web-based and has been shown to scale up for practical use in educational and workplace settings, unlike many of the
research tools developed solely to study basic issues in human learning and performance. In this paper, we describe
HIMATT functions and demonstrate several applications for its use. We conclude with research suggestions for the use
of HIMATT and for its further development. |
