Assessment of Problem Solving Using Simulations

Assessment of Problem Solving Using Simulations

"This volume explores the application of computer simulation technology to measurement issues in education -- especially as it pertains to problem based learning. Whereas most assessments related to problem solving are based on expensive and time consuming measures (i.e., think-aloud protocols...
