Authoring: Deep Dive into Content Analytics

In this 30-minute webinar, we'll take a closer look at the metrics behind your questions, with a special focus on point-biserial and what it reveals about question quality. Amplifire is delivering increasingly sophisticated data about your content. But how do you interpret numbers about words? When does a big red bar mean your question has a problem... and when does that very same bar mean your question is doing exactly what you designed it to do?

We'll explore how authors should think about content analytics, opportunities for question improvement, and when the data may be telling a more nuanced story. You'll leave with a better understanding of how to evaluate your questions and use analytics to make informed authoring decisions. We'll answer questions like:

  • What does point-biserial actually measure, and how should authors use it?
  • Is it a problem if no one chooses a particular response?
  • Is it a problem if everyone chooses the same wrong answer?
  • How bad is Confidently Held Misinformation™?
  • Is learner struggle the same as difficulty? Is it ever desirable?
