| Abstract Title: | Using the PhysPort Data Explorer to analyze research-based assessment results |
|---|---|
| Abstract: | PhysPort (www.physport.org) is a website that supports physics instructors in incorporating research-based teaching practices in their classrooms. The PhysPort Data Explorer is an online tool for physics instructors to analyze their research-based assessment data (including FCI, FMCE, BEMA, CSEM, CLASS, MPEX, and many more). Instructors upload their students' responses using our secure interface. The Data Explorer matches their pre/post data, scores it, compares it to national data, and graphs it in an interactive and intuitive manner. Instructors can look at their results over time, break their results down by question or cluster, and make comparisons between courses. Instructors can also upload data related to student demographics, academic record or background, and look at their assessment results based on this information. We present the Data Explorer and discuss equity issues around analysis and interpretation of research-based assessment results, in order to support faculty in using data to reveal and address inequities, to more effectively support minoritized groups of students, and to minimize and eliminate harm. |
