The results of examining training progress by signed-range test showed that the trainees had different scores after training and before training.
- The results of the overall primary test and assessment capability assessment showed that heads of primary school teachers were able to develop test and evaluation by requiring everyone to create 25 tests based on their contents and learning objectives. All tests had an IOC value between 0.67-1.00, a difficulty (p) between 0.67-0.80, and (r) between 0.38- 0.92, the rtt value is between 0.9570-0.9639, and all the criteria are met.
