摘要
The teaching and assessment of essay writing at primary schools throughout Vietnam is regulated by the Ministry of Education and Training. The analytical error-recognition method of assessment, however, does not facilitate direct interpretation of students' writing competence. In this study, which involved samples of Grade 5 students in five provinces in Vietnam, a combination of traditional and partial credit scoring rubrics was developed to enable data analysis using the Rasch model. Based on such analysis, a continuum of writing ability at Grade 5 level was identified and a mastery level defined in terms of writing skills. The study has implications for possible changes in future assessment and marking schemes.
