Akindi provides Instructors with various reports for each assessment to help the instructor understand:
1) How well the students performed
2) How well the test performed
How well the students performed
Akindi combines analytics across all versions and displays it with the question content. You can quickly understand what the question is and how students across all versions performed.
Easiest/Hardest Questions & Most/Least Effective Questions
Sort your results by the easiest or the hardest questions:
The easiest questions are the questions that the most number of students answered correctly.
The hardest question are the questions that the fewest number of students answered correctly.
Sort your results by the most effective and least effective questions:
The most effective questions indicate questions that top-performing students get right and low-performing students get wrong
The least effective questions indicate questions that are either too easy for everyone, too hard for everyone, or confusing to the strongest students.
This data can be valuable in understanding which concepts the class understands fully and which concepts the class needs to review.

How well the test questions performed
Akindi uses the discriminatory score/ point biserial to help you understand to provide a statistical analysis of the best performing questions. Akindi is not analyzing the question content.
Akindi uses the point-biserial correlation coefficient (rpb) to calculate a discriminatory score for each question in your assessment, and for your assessment as a whole.
The discriminatory score measures the correlation between how the students performed on the test as a whole and whether they answered that question correctly vs incorrectly.
