Reflection: Conducting an item analysis on a multiple-choice assessment with at least five items and ten responders is an important step in determining the assessment’s effectiveness and consistency. Calculating the difficulty for each question allows educators to detect problematic issues and make educated judgments to improve the assessment’s quality. This process ensures that the evaluation effectively measures student understanding while being fair and valid.
