Article 32th (Online Assesment Of Strategic Reading Literacy Skills)

Computers open up new possibilities for literacy assessment. They not only minimize the cost and time lag in scoring by providing direct yield feedback and reducing the cost of test production, but also allowing the reading of reader behavior, which can be interpreted in terms of strategic readings. E-CompLEC is a prototype of a computer-based version of a standard paper-and-pencil test, called CompLEC, designed to assess students' reading skills. They include the same material (i.e, text and questions) but differ in the medium through which the test is delivered and, consequently, it is possible to record the reader's strategic behavior online as they read the text and answer questions.This study investigates the possibility to assess strategic literacy skills with computers. The critical value of this assessment is the recording of the online index of reader behavior that can be interpreted in terms of strategy. This study uses standard literature and pencil literature and pencil tests called CompLEC and a technology called Read & Answer that presents text and questions with masking procedures that allow reading time reading and reader actions to develop a computer-based version called e-CompLEC. They found that the reliability and validity of both versions were largely equivalent, and that e-CompLEC provided a self-determining and reading behavior index that predicted performance.
