Constantinou, Filio – Research Papers in Education, 2023
Examination questions need to be sufficiently novel if they are to be effective as measurement instruments. Novelty, however, presupposes creativity, suggesting that question writing is, or should be, a creative process. To explore the boundaries of creativity in question writing, this study made use of two data sources: two corpora of examination…

Wang, Hui; King, Ronnel B.; McInerney, Dennis M. – Research Papers in Education, 2023
The advantages and disadvantages of ability grouping for student achievement are strongly contested, with studies presenting different results. However, much of this research has focused on class-level or subject-level ability grouping. Relatively less research has focused on school-level ability grouping. More importantly, the role of teacher…

Jo, SeungJung; Seo, Young S. – Research Papers in Education, 2023

Peer assessment (PA) is generally effective, and especially important for school teachers, as the experience might lead teachers to use PA more skilfully with school students.
