ATLAS psychometrician awarded grant for improving software, methods for educational research

Tue, 04/06/2021 LAWRENCE  Jake Thompson, senior psychometrician with Accessible Teaching, Learning, and Assessment Systems at the University of Kansas, has received a $225,000 grant from the Institute of Education Sciences, National Center for Educational Research. Titled Improving Software and Methods for Estimating Diagnostic Classification Models and Evaluating Model Fit, the grant will help reduce hurdles among educational researchers. “Diagnostic classification models are flexible and informative, but the code knowledge required is a significant barrier to entry,” said Thompson, who won the grant through the 2021 Statistical and Research Methodology in Education competition. “This project will make these models more accessible, helping researchers understand how knowledge, skills and understandings are acquired.”
