A classification of questions from Irish and Turkish high-stakes examinations.
In: BSRLM: Day Conference held at the Institute of Education, 11 Mar 2011, London.
Abstract
In both Turkey and Ireland entrance to third level education is determined
by performance on a high-stakes examination at the end of second level
education. However, the examination systems in Ireland and Turkey are
quite different from each other. In order to compare the examinations we
attempted to classify the types of questions asked in 2009 and 2010. We
used various classification systems including the Levels of Cognitive
Demand Framework developed by the QUASAR Project (Smith & Stein
1998). We will report on the use of these frameworks and the results
obtained for the Turkish and Irish mathematics examinations.
