“…They found that the holistic approach was a better fit for analytic approach. Sebok (2010) stated that it is advantageous to use the Many Facet Rasch Model model with small samples and missing data, and it is the most appropriate method when individual evaluation is desired.…”

One of the most commonly used methods for measuring higher-order thinking skills such as problem-solving or written expression is open-ended items. Three main approaches are used to evaluate responses to open-ended items: general evaluation, rating scales, and rubrics. In order to measure and improve problem-solving skills of students, firstly, an error-free measurement process should be performed. Errors caused by raters such as bias, high or low tendency to score is a common problem in the evaluation of open-ended items as they adversely affect the accuracy of decisions to be made. This study utilized open-ended items to evaluate the raters' tendencies in terms of general evaluation, rating scale, and rubric conditions. The raters' behaviours in each assessment method and their opinions about the assessment methods were determined. The participants of the study consisted of 12 different mathematics teachers and the Many Facet Rasch Model was adopted for the analyses. The scoring reliability of each method was estimated. The findings of the rating scale revealed that the raters had a more homogeneous scoring tendency. In addition, while the majority of raters stated that they prefer to use a rubric, they also stated it is the most difficult method to use.

“…The imbalanced ratios may also reduce the analysis accuracy conducted by school counselors. In order to minimize inconsistencies in assessment caused by the counselor's subjectivity, it needs adequate resources (Sebok & MacMillan, 2014), and other solutions. Another solution offered is the use of technologies that can make procedures and analyzes to be consistent and objective.…”

Needs assessment is the main thing performed by school counselors as a basis for developing a guidance and counseling service program. In conducting needs assessment, problems that frequently occur are related to ratios, feasibility and practicality of instruments, as well as needs assessment procedures. One solution that can be used to overcome these problems is the use of application analysis needs of students based on text communication media. This research aims to determine the efficiency of students' needs analysis application based on text communication media on vocational high school students. The research method used was experiment with the one-group pretest-posttest design technique. The research population was 45 vocational high school counselors in Kediri city. The percentage of random sampling was 25% of the total population, so the number of subjects was 11 people. The research instrument was the Students' Needs Efficiency Assessment Questionnaire by the school counselor and interviews. The research data were analyzed in descriptively and comparative tests. Based on the analysis results, the needs assessment of text-based media communication is to improve the efficiency of students' assessment declared efficient.
