tools available to students. 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

: MethodologyThe flipped class format can be used as a more engaging and effective teaching method;however, flipped classes typically require a large amount of materials to be developed. Thesematerials can require a significant upfront time commitment, which can be a barrier for adoption.This can be especially true for a faculty member that has spent years developing a traditionallecture style course.Dr. Anna Howard at NC State has several years experience teaching a flipped statics course.Through some trial and error, best practices were identified for the types of materials to use,including: short three to five minute videos summarizing the lectures key topics29, pencastivideos of example problems, skeleton course notes for students to complete on their

methods include the use of content experts, reviews of existinginstruments, and lists of behaviors and descriptors commonly associated with the construct(s) wewish to assess. Unfortunately, however, item creation sometimes becomes overly dependentupon a researcher’s personal attitudes about the construct(s) being tested, or on “borrowing”items from other instruments that may or may not be sound measures of the construct(s) ofinterest. These risks are particularly likely for new researchers in engineering education, whomay have little experience with best practices in social science research.One way to support best practices in the development of new surveys and assessments is to usean instrument blueprint to guide the creation of items, as well
