InCAS
InCAS has been developed by the Centre for Evaluation and Monitoring at Durham University and is a computer-based assessment which is adaptive. This means it focuses on the pupil as an individual, by selecting the initial questions based on the pupil's age and then presenting further questions in response to the pupil's answers.
The difficulty of subsequent items is dependent upon their responses. In this way, pupils are presented with fewer questions that are either too easy or too difficult and so the assessment is appropriate to their ability.
