Apr04,2016 Meeting Outcomes (in blue)
1. Level 2 question criteria
Agreed on a set of criteria for creating questions (attended by Lynne, Riet, Deborah, Lilian, Patrick)
Details
Criteria for generating Level 2 multiple-choice questions:
(1) One and only one correct answer
(2) Universally-accepted, not opinion-based
(3) Not controversial, not fad
(4) Business-based
Explanations:
(1) One and only one correct answer
Try not to have ambiguous answers where more than one could be the
correct choice.
(2) Universally-accepted, not opinion-based
Should not be based on just what one author says, but based on
generally accepted data or consensus. That is, students don't
need to read a specific article but can obtain such information
from different sources.
A rule-of-thumb: an expert doing the test must be able to pass it.
(3) Not controversial, not fad
Avoid "hot", "high-flying" current topics and "flash in the pants"!
(4) Business-based
Can also include social situations that a business person would
come across,
e.g. what should you wear to a wedding?
but avoid specifics of a social situation
e.g. what wedding gown to wear?
