5: Constructing Objective Test Items: Simple Forms & Multiple Choice Forms
What can I learn from this
topic?
In this topic, I have
learned that in multiple choices questions (MCQs) are consist of four parts
which are:
There
are also several types of multiple choices that are:- Standard:
- None of the above
- Multiple-multiple choice
- More than one answer
- True or false
From
this topic, I have learned on how to build up good MCQs based on these steps
that really helps me when I want to prepare MCQs for my students in the future.
The steps are:
- State the stem in the form of question which are consisting the question mark “?” at the end of it.
- Place the most of the subject matter in the Stem to ensuring the full statement of the problem.
- Eliminate extraneous material from the stem because the goal is to measure student achievement, not to present new material to them. By doing this, teacher also can maximize the use of time for demonstrating understanding, not reading ability.
- Avoid stem phrase that are negative as the students may miss the qualifier. This step only can be use when learning outcomes requires this type of differentiation.
By learning and
understanding this topic, I also will be able to construct MCQs for my
Assignment 2 as one of my assessment instrument.

The standard for the questions that i think is easy is True or False. Because it doesn't have many choice for the answer. So it helps the students to get marks
