Abstract

The existing educational process currently uses the computer as an auxiliary tool in the teaching-learning process. This tool has been growining up in the educational field, and this has already been adopted in some schools.The process of educational assessment seeks ways to evaluate to ensure the safety of items and speed and agility in the results, for this the importance of entering the computer to its process.This work deals with the use of computers in the assessment process used with students from 5th grade key associated with the use of Item Response Theory (IRT) in the evaluation process and results.Thus, we developed a web-based assessment module that fostered the development of a test on the computer. The same test was applied to paper and pen so that as a way to experiment is possible with the use of ITR, through software BILOG, evaluate the results and subsequently make a survey of the advantages and disadvantages of entering the computer in the process evaluation, and justify the different behaviors presented by students who submitted the evidence.
