DESCRIPTION:Speakers: William Boone (Miami University )\nThis talk will pr
 esent a summary of what I wish I had known 30+ years ago as I began my Ph.
 D. studies with Ben Wright and first learned Rasch methods. In this talk I
  will present key errors beginners commonly make when they start to use Ra
 sch. Naturally I will briefly discuss the ins and outs of such beginner Ra
 sch errors…my goal..to aid Rasch novices so that they can confidently\, 
 quickly and correctly use Rasch. I will also share and discuss what my fam
 ily calls “Bill’s Rasch elevator speech”…such a speech is the one 
 I can give very quickly (60 seconds) in an effort to help others understan
 d why Rasch is important. Quickly explaining Rasch to those who do indeed 
 need your Rasch help (but they do not know they need your assistance) is a
  critical skill that one must develop. It is an art to succinctly explain 
 Rasch to others\, be it in person\, or in papers. Even as a beginner with 
 Rasch\, by mastering your own elevator speech you can increase the number 
 of people who seek your Rasch expertise\, be it in academia or the private
  sector.\n\nhttps://indico.unina.it/event/60/contributions/659/
