Following on the 2008-2012 OECD Assessment of Higher Education Learning Outcomes (AHELO) feasibility study of civil engineering, in Japan a mechanical engineering learning outcomes assessment working group was established within the National Institute of Education Research (NIER), which became the Tuning National Center for Japan. The purpose of the project is to develop among engineering faculty members, common understandings of engineering learning outcomes, through the collaborative process of test item development, scoring, and sharing of results. By substantiating abstract level learning outcomes into concrete level learning outcomes that are attainable and assessable, and through measuring and comparing the students’ achievement of learning outcomes, it is anticipated that faculty members will be able to draw practical implications for educational improvement at the program and course levels. The development of a mechanical engineering test item bank began with test item development workshops, which led to a series of trial tests, and then to a large scale test implementation in 2016 of 348 first semester master’s students in 9 institutions in Japan, using both multiple choice questions designed to measure the mastery of basic and engineering sciences, and a constructive response task designed to measure “how well students can think like an engineer.” The same set of test items were translated from Japanese into to English and Indonesian, and used to measure achievement of learning outcomes at Indonesia’s Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) on 37 risingfourth yearundergraduate students. This paper highlights how learning outcomes assessment can effectively facilitate learning outcomes-based education, by documenting the experience of Japanese and Indonesian mechanical engineering faculty members engaged in the NIER Test Item Bank project.Published online: 30 November 2017

There is a major trend in engineering education to provide students with realistic hands-on learning experiences. This paper reports on the results of work done to develop standardized test instruments to use for student learning outcomes assessment in an experiential hands-on manufacturing engineering and technology environment. The specific outcomes targeted for assessment are those defined under the MILL (Manufacturing Integrated Learning Laboratory) Manufacturing Competency Model. In a unique feature aimed at experiential learning, the test instruments incorporate the use of a physical manipulative to evaluate attainment of particular hands-on skills. The resulting standardized tests have been subjected to extensive psychometric analysis. The results of the analysis indicate excellent structure of the test instruments. The test instruments have shown high levels of stability, internal consistency, and reliability. These tests can be used as instruments for outcomes assessment to help document attainment of targeted learning outcomes for program assessment, accreditation, and other assessment purposes.

The authors propose the point-rating system (PRS) for assessing the learning outcomes as one of the modern technologies to implement the requirements introduced by the new generation of the Federal State Educational Standard of Higher Professional Education. Features of implementing PRS at the Department of Chemistry in BMSTU are provided; social and personality traits, as well as general scientific competencies of to-be engineers, developed as a result of PRS system implementation are outlined. Also highlighted are the merits of the outcomes assessment system under consideration as it helps students to develop the habit to smooth and systematic research activities and to enhance their self-esteem, reflection and motivation to learn. The authors compare the traditional system of learning outcomes assessment against the proposed point-rating system and consider problems of implementing it in the educational practice. The authors also provide evidence of the efficiency of their proprietary version of computer testing system, which stipulates the application of practice-oriented exercises.

A good learning is supported by not only good planning and learning processes, but it is also supported by an assessment of students’ competencies achievement. This study aims to develop a learning outcome assessment system based on educational units (students’ reports) in elementary schools. This is development research using Development and Diffusion (R-D-D) model. The data in this study were collected through interviews, observations, questionnaires, documentation studies, FGDs, and product trials. The data were analyzed using a qualitative approach. The results showed that the percentage level of achievement of the unit-based learning outcomes assessment system was 97.3% so which fell into Very Good qualification with the achievement level scale of 5 in the conversion table. Based on this, it can be concluded that the Student Report (SR) system is appropriate to be used as an education unit-based learning outcome assessment system in elementary school. This research implies that teachers can use the developed E-report as a learning outcomes assessment system based on education units in elementary schools.

- The article presents the main results of a system level evaluation of learning outcomes concerning compulsory Vocational Training (VT) 3-years courses final formal examinations. This evaluation, carried out by the Education and Vocational Training Department of an italian Province (Varese), specifically deals with the use of single student learning standardized outcomes as a crucial component - if properly designed, managed and processed - of the evaluation of a local institutional VT system as a whole. This is quite a challenging task in Italy due both to the territorial differences existing in VT policies and institutional responsibilities and to the weakness of system evaluation culture, models and experiences in VT specifically and in education in general. The evaluation, conducted with the supervision of the two authors, will be presented and briefly discussed mainly by a methodological perspective. It will focus on the way in which learning contexts, training contents and trainees characteristics have been included into the evaluative analysis as factors potentially able: a) to explain, at a system level, the learning outcomes of the students; b) to offer the local stakeholders a comprehensive set of information and evidences to be used for the improvement of VT policies, programmes and single interventions.Key words: educational and vocational training, learning outcomes assessment, system evaluation, comparison, explicationParole chiave: istruzione e formazione professionale, valutazione di sistema, valutazione degli apprendimenti, comparazione, spiegazione

Abstract Background: As more and more people suffer from sleep disorders, developing an efficient, cheap and accurate assessment tool for screening sleep disorders is becoming more urgent. This study developed a computerized adaptive testing for sleep disorders (CAT-SD). Methods: A large sample of 1,304 participants was recruited to construct the item pool of CAT-SD and to investigate the psychometric characteristics of CAT-SD. More specifically, firstly the analyses of unidimensionality, model fit, item fit, item discrimination parameter and differential item functioning (DIF) were conducted to construct a final item pool which meets the requirements of item response theory (IRT) measurement. In addition, a simulated CAT study with real response data of participants was performed to investigate the psychometric characteristics of CAT-SD, including reliability, validity and predictive utility (sensitivity and specificity). Results: The final unidimensional item bank of the CAT-SD not only had good item fit, high discrimination and no DIF; Moreover, it had acceptable reliability, validity and predictive utility. Conclusions: The CAT-SD could be used as an effective and accurate assessment tool for measuring individuals' severity of the sleep disorders and offers a bran-new perspective for screening of sleep disorders with psychological scales.
