Abstract
Description
The purpose of this research study was to determine if assessment items administered
using screen reading software measure student learning better than assessment items in a paper
and pencil format. Using a computer to present a test orally controls for standardization of
administration and allows each student to complete the assessment at his/her own pace. Few
published studies have used a computer to present a test orally (Burk, 1998).
