This half-day online course is aimed at those who want to learn about Rasch analysis for language testing. 

The course provides an introduction to the basics of the Rasch analysis techniques. It is suitable for pre- and post-testing of items in receptive skills tests. 

The course assumes, at best, only limited awareness of the type and content of files used for input and the type of output produced by Rasch Analysis and Rasch Measurement software.  It covers the cycle of preparing data for analysis and understanding input and output. It does not provide any training on operating any specific software, but concentrates on understanding typical content and design of input and output files. 

This course is aimed and assessment professionals with a language or teaching background, who need to work and communicate with analysts, make sense of output and tables, and who need to prepare or adapt input for analysis.  

Cursul este condus de către Jane Lloyd (Cambridge University Press and Assessment), un instructor experimentat și expert în domeniu. 

A more detailed programme will be available closer to the date. 

Rasch Analysis: basic info

Rasch analysis is a psychometric technique which places the proficiency level of test takers, and the relative difficulty of items on a common scale. Rasch software (such as Winsteps) is used to calibrate the data and produces statistical measures for items and test takers. This analysis provides statistical data on the relative difficulty and consistency of the items, and the relative performance of test takers. Rasch analysis is suitable for pre- and post-testing of items in receptive skills tests.
