Hard quiz? - guess the longest answer

Hard quiz? - guess the longest answer

Nombre de réponses : 1

The is from the perspective of taking a course - I once took a course, and in the quiz there was a particular question did not understand.

I was able to guess the correct answer by choosing the longest text in the multiple choices.

In that particular quiz the feedback wasn;t so good either so it did not help me learn.

I am interested in constructing quiz questions where students have to use some skill, rather than just remember facts.

Thank you Mark!  Unintended clues like the longest answer often make their way into the questions.  The live session discusses this and other issues that can creep into questions.

The major focus of the live session is on writing questions that require students to think carefully and apply information rather than simply recall facts.  I hope that you can join us and find the discussion useful.
