This paper describes a measurement model that is used to measure the student performance in the final examination of Information Technology (IT) Fundamentals (IT280) course in the Information Technology (IT) Department, College of Computer & Information Sciences (CCIS), Al-Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud Islamic University (IMSIU).
The assessment model is developed based on students mark entries of final exam results for the second year IT students, which are compiled and tabulated for evaluation using Rasch Measurement Model, and it can be used to measure the students performance towards the final examination of the course.
A study on 150 second year students (male = 52; female = 98) was conducted to measure students knowledge and understanding for IT280 course according to the three level of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
The results concluded that students can be categorized as poor (10%), moderate (42%), good (18%), and successful (24%) to achieve Level 3 of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
This study shows that the students performance for the set of IT280 final exam questions was comparatively good.
The result generated from this study can be used to guide us to determine the appropriate improvement of teaching method and the quality of question prepared.
