Embodiment Construction

[0059] Embodiments and aspects of the invention provide methods and systems for building knowledge assessment and learning. Various embodiments incorporate the use of confidence-based assessment and learning techniques that can be deployed on microprocessor-based or networked communicating client-server systems that extract knowledge-based and confidence-based information from learners. In a general sense, the assessment incorporates non-one-dimensional testing techniques.

[0060] According to another aspect, the present invention is a robust method and system for confidence-based assessment ("CBA") and confidence-based learning ("CBL"), wherein an answer generates correct information about an individual's confidence and his or her responses. Two measures of resistance, thus facilitating immediate remedial methods. This is done with three basic tools:

[0061] 1. Eliminate the test and scoring format that requires guessing the answer. This leads to a more accurate assessme...

Abstract

The invention provides a system and method for adaptive knowledge assessment and learning. The system and method of knowledge assessment comprises displaying to a learner a plurality of multiple-choice questions and two-dimensional answers, accessing a database of learning materials, and transmitting to the learner the plurality of multiple-choice questions and two-dimensional answers. The answers include plurality of full-confidence answers consisting of single-choice answers, a plurality of partial-confidence answers consisting of one or more sets of multiple single-choice answers, and an unsure answer. The method further comprises scoring a confidence-based assessment (CBA) administered to the learner by assigning various knowledge state designations based on the learner's responses to the two-dimensional questions.
