overviewThe Essential Adult Skills Initiative (EASI) was a large-scale research project undertaken by theHigher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) and 20 postsecondary partners in 2017-2018. EASI was designed to measure the numeracy, literacy, and problem-solving skills ofincoming and graduating college and university students in Ontario.The central research goals of the larger project were: a) to determine the suitability of theEducation and Skills Online (ESO) assessment to measure post-secondary students’ literacy,numeracy, and problem-solving; b) to determine observable differences between incoming andgraduating students’ skillsets, and; c) to identify practical implications of implementing such aproject in post-secondary

been designed to bridge this gap by distilling significantamounts of medical and patient data into an accessible and useable format.Similarly, a close mentor-student relationship, developed over extended periods of time, isperhaps the best way to facilitate student learning. This is why such approaches are still prevalentin medical education after medical school and in graduate programs. However, the modernengineering faculty faced with large classrooms and brief educational experiences bracketed into15-week semesters or 10-week quarters cannot get to know each student well enough to facilitatea personalized mentoring approach. In addition, the various draws on faculty time for researchand scholarly activity makes it difficult to spend the

Therehas been a tremendous amount of work on best practices for instruction in college courses, andresearchers have identified the value of formative assessments to help students and instructorsidentify strengths and weaknesses and adjust instruction. We add to this discussion byundertaking a psychometric analysis of classroom tests. In particular, we will focus on themeasurement precision when tests are analyzed using Item Response Theory (IRT), a non-linearlatent variable model that evaluates the student’s probability of responding to items correctlyconditional on ability level. A useful byproduct of IRT analysis is that measurement uncertaintyis quantified conditional on ability level, and it often reveals that

The reasons students choose less than optimal learningstrategies were not explored in this study, but cognitive overload, where the capacity of workingmemory is exceeded, may be a factor in whether or not they are able to be effective learners [20].Efforts to reduce cognitive load, such as presenting new concepts in smaller chunks, andmodeling, scaffolding and providing myriad opportunities for practice, may remove some ofthese challenges.The literature shows that students want to be successful in their studies [13] but do not alwaysapply the best practices even when
