Question

Case Study: The College of Business at VIP University You are a newly hired professor with a Ph.D. in Human Resources Management. You have special interests in both training and performance measurement. You decide to develop a comparative performance measurement system to measure student performance in your HR Management classes. At the end of the school year, a student initiative calls for a revision of the grading system at VIP University. Every professor will be required to develop an absolute performance measurement system. The process is complicated by the fact that many students are distance learners who interact on the Internet rather than in person.  

What absolute measurement plans would you consider as the most appropriate for the situation? Discuss why did you choose this method? How would you would implement this method?

Explanation / Answer

Absolute measurement plans will consist of objective type/ multiple choice questions on a Psychometric test, small case studies, a 1 hour test to understand the students learning process and learning curve as how they have applied what they have studied.

As test can’t be much effective on video or audio conferencing, as it costly and takes much time to set up and work out, a Psychometric test is the right option, so that all students can cover in the same timeframe and even the professors could check it conveniently in their own timeframe.

There are many Psychometric test providers who provide a prepared set of questions and case studies and even the software tools via which it can floated/ emailed to students and responses are collected/ viewed in the same platform conveniently. Companies which provide these tests are like Thomas Assessments International, Mettl, The Psychometricworld.com etc.
