THE USE OF CONFIDENCE TESTING IN THE ACADEMIC INSTRUCTOR COURSE

Abstract

The overall problem in the study is to determine if valid confidence testing techniques can provide a more accurate assessment of the students' knowledge of the subject matter and yield more useful information for the faculty than standard choice testing. The broad hypothesis of the study is that such testing techniques can yield such information and serve as a useful tool in predicting a student's success in course.
