RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF HYPERMEDIA TEST SYSTEM

我们在Macintosh II上开发了一个利用超媒体技术的计算机考试系统，并进行了一些实践研究。超媒体技术是超文本和多媒体的结合，在系统开发中，尝试将超媒体技术应用于试题的组织、试题的执行和试题成绩的分析反馈。在用于测试构造时，主要应用超文本结构是有用的，并且在用于测试执行时，使用多媒体是有用的。特别是在测试执行的情况下，应该注意使用图形、图片和声音，因为它能够使教育测试的环境与以前的纸笔测试环境完全不同。设计和绘图的主题已被作为开发目标。由于这一主题主要集中在教授物理物质，因此有必要处理非语言信息，并使用图形或动画功能进行输入和输出。那些在纸笔考试时代还无法测量的能力，现在已经可以通过计算机测评来测量。这是一种排除言语表征的知识表征的回答能力。分析了计算机考试中具有特点的时间要求数据和答题记录数据的新信息，并将其作为教育评价的信息。提出了数据分析的理论模型和方法。开发了一个简化的测试构建和执行系统，并通过实际试验进行了研究。

We have developed a computer test system utilizing hypermedia technology on Macintosh II and investigated some practices. Hypermedia technology is defined here a combination of a hypertext and a multimedia.On the system development, it has been tried to utilize a hypermedia to a test construction, a test execution and a test result marking analysis feedback. On utilizing for a test construction, it is useful to apply mainly a hypertext structure, and on utilizing for a test execution, using multimedia is useful. Using graghs, pictures and sounds especially at a situation of a test execution should be noticed, because it is able to make an environment of the educational test quite different from the previous paper test environment.A subject matter of Design and Drawing has been adopted as a target of development. As this subject matter is essentially focused to teach a physical substance, it is necessary to deal with non-verbal information and to use a function of graphics or animation for input and output. The abilities which was not able to be measured so far in the paper test era is being possible to be measured with evaluating by computer. That is an answering ability of knowledge representation exempt verbal representation. New informations of time required data and answering record data, which are characteristic in the computer test, has been analyzed and used as information for educational evaluation. The theoretical model and method has been proposed to analyze data. A telecommunicated test construction and execution system has been developed and investigated by practical trials.
