I was just made aware that the National Centre for Research Methods has archived and made available more than 20 resources we (Anna Brown, Tim Croudace, Jan Stochl & I) produced 2010/2011 for various introductions to Item Response Models and social science measurement.
Naturally they are now a bit dated, but in case you know nothing about these topics, they might still serve as a good introduction with worked examples, data sets, etc:
