This study aimed to examine the feasibility of active learning scale by Item Response Theory (IRT). The participants were 735 university students (51.4% were female). Firstly, factor analysis revealed the active learning scale had a single-factor structure. Secondary, discrimination parameter, threshold parameters, item response curve, and item information curve were calculated by IRT. Thirdly, item group were extracted from the item response curve, and test information based on item groups were calculated. Lastly, we discuss about meaning and task of active learning scale.
