Description
Come learn about the current best practices for writing multiple-choice questions for quizzes and exams. I have put these into effect in my own science classes and in two semesters I continue to see improvement in the multiple-choice question portion of my exams, but, surprisingly, an even greater increase on the free response portions of the exams (fill in the blank, short answer, and essay questions).
Please join me to learn about the current best practices for writing multiple choice-questions at multiple levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy, as well as live application where we rewrite example questions from attendees.
