introduction: the term dynamic assessment (da) refers to an assessment, by an active teaching process, of a child's perception, learning, thinking, and problem solving. the process is aimed at modifying an individual's cognitive functioning and observing subsequent changes in learning and problem-solving patterns within the testing situation. da has been advocated as an alternative an...

Learning and instruction can be enhanced with the information provided from assessment. Computerized adaptive testing is an effective mode of e-testing as it can be operated in a continual and dynamic mode. It can also cater for individual needs by providing tailor-made tests. In this paper, we will examine a new item selection approach which would allow more flexibility in balancing the two co...

Dynamic infrared imaging (DIRI), the most effective modality of dynamic area telethermometry (DAT), involves the acquisition of hundreds to thousands of consecutive thermal images, deriving information from the modulation of temperature and of thermal spatial distribution of small subareas. Four groups of clinical applications of dynamic infrared imaging are reviewed from the standpoint of thei...

the purpose of this study was to explore whether film-based dynamic assessment (da) could affect english writing of iranian deaf children. ten students studying in a school for the deaf took part in the study. the participants’ writing ability was measured prior to the treatment and the errors which were identified. a series of meditating activities were designed and implemented during a three-...
