"One vision of the 12-Year Basic Education Curriculum in Taiwan is to promote the comprehensive learning and development of all students. To ensure the quality of this curriculum reform, the Ministry of Education funded a long-term project, the Taiwan Assessment of Student Achievement: Longitudinal Study (TASAL), to evaluate the impact of the curriculum on student performance. The TASAL is a large-scale standards-based assessment, and standard setting is one of its main task. A comprehensive literature review indicated that most empirical studies related to standard setting have focused on cognitive domains and few study undertake expert-oriented standard-setting processes in affective domains because of some practical limitations. The present study suggests a new approach, employing supplementary performance-level descriptors (S-PLDs) in an extended Angoff method in setting standards for self-report measures. The purpose of this study was to uncover evidence of the procedural, internal, and external validity of implementing an extended Angoff method procedure with S-PLDs in standard setting for English comprehension strategy use among seventh grade students in Taiwan. PLDs are designed to outline the knowledge, skills, and practices that indicate the level of student performance in a target domain. In the present study, the use of comprehension strategies for learning English as a foreign language was examined. S-PLDs provide comparable but unique functions within the standard-setting process. S-PLDs offer supplementary material to subject matter experts to facilitate the formation of profiles of student performance in target domains, especially when ambiguities in conventional PLDs may prevent expert consensus during the standard-setting process." |
