Learned About Making Test
During this current year I have only used test that were generated from exam view or pre-written test from the ctaern web site. I have learned how to create my own test from the material I will be teaching about at the time. My test will be specific and will relate to the content that I am teaching at the time. Looking back over some of my previous test, even those that were pre-written had many rules that were broken. One of the main rules was that the directions were not clear. The Burns book taught me a great deal and I will use it through out my teaching career.
I am glad that you are able to make these tests better. The students learn better especially when everything ties together and they should know what to expect on a test. I have been able to experience the benefits of being more thorough. The task analysis project we did at NTI opened my eyes abouty being thorough. It really helps you and relieves some stress when your students don't have to ask a thousand questions because you weren't thorough enough! LOL! That's why I had so many questions when we were doing projects last year! Good Luck!
