An Architecture for a Problem-Solving Assessment Authoring and Delivery System

Abstract

The UCLA National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST) designed an authoring system to support the design of problem-solving assessments. To support assessment design, the system design includes a constraint network, in which nodes are variables that can assume a range of values and the topology specifies how the variables and values are related, to describe the permissible relations and states among assessment and problem-solving variables. This report describes the design for the authoring system and discusses next steps in developing and conducting research on the system.
