For achievement tests, the guess score is often used as a baseline for the lowest possible grade for score to grade transformations and setting the cut scores. For test item types such as multiple-response, matching and drag-and-drop, determining the guess score requires more elaborate calculations than the more straightforward calculation of the guess score for True-False and multiple-choice test item formats. For various variants of multiple-response and matching types with respect to dichotomous and polytomous scoring, methods for determining the guess score are presented and illustrated with practical applications. The implications for theory and practice are discussed.

We present some preliminary findings of the Erasmus+ KA2 Strategic Partnership project “Online Proctoring for Remote Examination” (OP4RE). OP4RE aims to develop, implement and disseminate up to par practices for remote examination procedures. More specifically, OP4RE strives to develop guidelines and minimum standards for the secure, legal, fair and trustworthy administration of exams in a remote location away from physical exam rooms in a European context. We present findings and issues regarding security, cheating prevention and deterrence, privacy and data protections as well as practical implementation.
