Summary

On November 4-5, 2019, the American Institutes for Research (AIR) sponsored a 1.5-day workshop aiming to train researchers in using PIAAC log files and process data. The workshop was organized in collaboration with the DIPF | Leibniz Institute for Research and Information in Education and with funding from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The workshop was led by Frank Goldhammer and Carolin Hahnel from DIPF.

Training activities were designed for researchers in the fields of assessment development and adult education, with the aim to gain first insights into successful or unsuccessful task completion behaviors and the relationships of group behaviors to social, economic, and cognitive outcomes. The schedule included presentations and hands-on practical exercises using PIAAC process data/log files available from the 2012 PIAAC administration.

The application for the log file training workshop is now closed.
