| Research Abstract |
In order to seek an effective and efficient method of program evaluation for English language programs at Japanese universities, pre-and post-tests are the main focus. Using item response theory (IRT) makes it possible to estimate the average growth of students’ ability level (θ) even when the number of participants in a post-test is only 14% of the number of pre-test participants. Moreover, the importance of selecting the most appropriate way of equating (IRT model and equating methods) is researched. Finally, other evidence of program evaluation is shown utilizing both θ and needs analysis survey results.
