To test the quality of MaRWA test items, SEAQiM conducted an analysis. In the process of analysis, we collected, summarize, and used information from respondents’ response which was gathered during the try out. The test item analysis focused on item difficulty and item discrimination. Item difficulty expresses the proportion or percentage of respondents who correctly […]
After being developed, SEAQiM conducted test item try-out in some sample schools before they are assembled into a live assessment. The try-out is to make sure that MaRWA test item is functioning as expected to diagnose the readiness of grade 5, 8, and 10 students in learning mathematics. The implementation of the try out was […]
MaRWA is expected to be a valid and reliable assessment for grade 5, 8, and 10 students in Southeast Asia. SEAQiM developed test item of MaRWA which feature basic skills and high order thinking skill mathematics questions in accordance with students’ grade.

The Mathematics Regional Wide Assessment (MaRWA) is important to develop since it can measure the mathematics achievement of Southeast Asia Students. Besides, it results database which is useful for policy makers to assess the effectiveness level of education system of SEAMEO Countries. It is also useful to get a framework or guidelines for mathematics assessment […]
Students’ learning process can be analyzed through assessment. By scrutinizing mathematics assessment results, we can analyze several aspects, such as students’ understanding, reasoning, mathematics communications and problems solving. Considering the importance of assessment, QITEP in Mathematics plans to formulate mathematics assessment in Southeast Asia Region. As a standpoint of realizing the plan, the Centre conducted […]
