ABSTRACT

The objectives of this research were 1) to develop an Intelligent Multilevel Item Bank (I-MIB) Model for the National Evaluation of Undergraduates and 2) to assess the appropriateness of the I-MIB Model for the National Evaluation of Undergraduates. The results of the research were as follows: 1. The I-MIB Model for the National Evaluation of Undergraduates consisted of four parts: Input, Process, Output, Feedback. The Input consisted of 1. Curriculum, 2. Subject, 3. Topic, 4. Objectives, 5. Cognitive Skills, 6. Teacher, 7. Student, and 8. Program Designated Lecturers. The Process consisted of 1. Question Management, 2. Cognitive Skills Processing, 3. Data Mining, 4. Trial Testing, 5. Improving Questions, 6. Testing, 7. Proficiency Classification, and 8. Suggestions. The Output consisted of 1. Testing Report, 2. Proficiency Level, and 3. Suggestions. Finally, the Feedback consisted of returning the evaluation results to improve the input and process and yield accurate evaluation results. 2. The assessment of the appropriateness of the I-MIB model for the national evaluation of undergraduates included 13 experts with an expertise in ICT for education, information technology, computer science, and educational measurement and evaluation. The evaluation results found that the I-MIB model for the evaluation of national undergraduates was suitable at the highest level with a mean of 4.60 and a standard deviation of 0.58.
