This document provides guidance on constructing objective test items for different formats, including short answer, true/false, matching, and multiple choice. It discusses the characteristics, uses, advantages, limitations, and suggestions for writing each type of item to effectively measure student learning outcomes. Multiple choice items can measure both simple and complex outcomes like knowledge, understanding, and application. While objective tests are limited in scope, the multiple choice format in particular allows for flexibility in content and reliable, structured assessment when written carefully according to the guidelines.
Assessment is part of the everyday activities of nursing professionals. Assessment is the only way by which a teacher can know how successful his teaching was and what areas in teaching need improvement.
Principles related to selection of methods for assessment 2S. Raj Kumar
Assessment is directed toward the development and selection of assessment methods
and their use in the classroom by teachers. Based on the conceptual framework provided in the
Standards for Teacher Competence in Educational Assessment of Students (1990), it is
organized around five interrelated themes:
I. Developing and Choosing Methods for Assessment
II. Collecting Assessment Information
III. Judging and Scoring Student Performance
IV. Summarizing and Interpreting Results
V. Reporting Assessment Findings
The Joint Advisory Committee acknowledges that not all of the guidelines are equally
applicable in all circumstances. However, consideration of the full set of principles and
guidelines within Assessment should help to achieve fairness and equity for the students to be
assessed

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. Constructing Objective Test Items simple and
multiple-choice forms
Test:-
test is a device or instrument which we use to
measure knowledge, skills, feelings, intellegence,or
aptitude of an individual or group.
4. Constructing Objective Test Items
Simple Forms
Each type of test item has its own unique
characteristics, uses, advantages,
limitations, and rules for construction. The
characteristics that are considered for
objective test forms that typically measure
relatively simple learning outcomes are the
short answer item, the true-false item, and
the matching exercise.
5. Short Answer Items
Short answer and the completion item are both
supply type test items.
Can be answered by a word, phrase, number, or
symbol.
6. Uses of the Short-Answer Items
Is suitable for measuring a variety of
relatively simple learning outcomes.
Some of the common uses are knowledge of
terminology, knowledge of specific facts,
knowledge of principle, knowledge of
method/procedure, and simple interpretations
of data.
7. Examples:
Knowledge of Terminology
Lines on a weather map that join points of the same
pressure are called______. (isobars)
barometric
Knowledge of Specific Facts
A member of the United
to a term of ________ years.
(6)
States
Senate
is
elected
8. Examples:
• Knowledge of Principles
If the temperature of a gas is held constant
while the pressure is applied to it is increased,
what will happen to its volume?
( it will increase)
Knowledge of Method or Procedure
What device is used to detect whether an electric
charge is positive or negative?
( electroscope)
Simple Interpretations of Data
In the number 612, what value does the 6
represent (600)
9. Short answer items
More complex interpretations can be made when the
short-answer item is used to measure the ability
to interpret diagrams, charts, graphs, and
pictorial data.
10. Advantages and Limitations
Reduces the possibility that students will guess
Measures the recall of memorized information
One of the easiest test items to construct
Limitations:Un suitability for measuring complex learning
outcomes.
The difficulty in scoring .
11. suggestion for Constructing short-answer items
1. Word the item so that the required answer is both

brief and specific.
Do not take statements directly from textbooks to
use as a basis for short-answer items.
A direct question is generally more desirable
than an incomplete statement.
If the answer is to be expressed in numerical
units, indicate the type of answer wanted.
Blanks for answers should be equal in length and
in a column to the right of the question.
When completion items are used, do not include
too many blanks.
12. True-False or Alternative-Response Items
Consists of a declarative statement that the
student is asked to mark true or false, right or
wrong, correct or incorrect, yes or no, fact or
opinion, agree or disagree.
Only two possible answers.
13. Uses of True-False Items
The most common is to measure the ability to
identify the correctness of statements of facts,
definitions of terms, statements of principles,
and the like.
14. Advantages Limitations T/F items
T/F are very efficient.
A wide sampling of course material can be
obtained.
T/F items are not especially useful beyond the
knowledge area.
Susceptible to guessing.
15. Suggestions for Constructing T/F Items
1. Avoid broad general statements if they are to
be judged true or false.
2. Avoid trivial statements.
3. Avoid the use of negative statements,
especially double negatives.
4. Avoid long, complex sentences.
5. Avoid including two ideas in one statement,
unless cause-and-effect relationships are being
measured.
16. Constructing suggestions for T/F Items
(Continued)
6. If opinion is used, attribute it to some source, unless
t the ability to identify opinion is
being measured.
7. True statements and false statements should be
approximately equal in length.
8. The number of true statements and false statements
should be approximately equal.
17. Matching Exercises
Consist of two parallel columns with each word,
number, or symbol in one column being matched to
a word, sentence, or phrase in the other column.
18. Uses of Matching Exercises
The typical matching exercise is limited to
measuring factual information based on simple
associations.
Has also been used with pictorial materials in
relating pictures and words to identify positions
on maps, charts, and diagrams.
19. Advantages Limitations of Matching Exercises
The compact form, which makes it possible to
measuring a large amount
The ease of construction
The matching exercise is restricted to the
measurement of factual information based on rote
learning .
20. suggestions for Constructing
Matching Exercises
Use only homogeneous material in a single
exercise.
Include an unequal number of responses and
premises and instruct the student that responses
may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
Keep the list of items to be matched brief and
place the shorter responses on the right.
Arrange the list of responses in logical order,
place words in alphabetical order, and numbers in
sequence.
Place all the items for one matching exercise on
one page.
21. CONSTRUCTING OBJECTIVE TEST ITEMS:
MULTIPLE-CHOICE FORMS
Objective test items are not limited to the measurement of
simple learning outcomes.
The multiple choice item can measure both knowledge
and understanding levels and is free of many of the
limitations of other forms of objective items.
22. Multiple-Choice Items
Most widely used
Measure simple learning outcomes
Measure complex learning outcomes
(knowledge, understanding, and
application)
Flexible, high quality items adaptable to
most subject-matter content
Used extensively in achievement testing
23. Characteristics of MultipleChoice Items
Consists of a problem (stem) and a list of suggested solutions
(alternatives, choices, or options)
Answers other than the correct answer are called distracters
(decoys or foils)
Items can be stated in two ways.
1) Direct questions
a) easier to write
b) more natural for younger students
c) present a clearly formatted problem
2) Incomplete sentences
a) more concise
b) present a well defined problem if phrased well
24. USES OF MULTIPLE-CHOICE ITEMS
Measuring Knowledge Outcomes
1) Knowledge of Terminology
2) Knowledge of Specific Facts
3) Knowledge of Principles
4) Knowledge of Methods and Procedures
Measuring Outcomes at the Understanding
and Application Levels
1) Ability to Identify Application of Fact and
Principles
2) Ability to Interpret Cause-and-Effect
Relationships
3) Ability to Justify Methods and Procedures
25. Advantages and Limitations of MultipleChoice Items
Advantages
Measures achievement and complex learning outcomes.
Structure of alternatives eliminate vagueness and
ambiguity
Knowledge of content area is measured without concern
for spelling errors
Multiple-choice requires students to choose the correct
or best answer while true-false tests allow students to get
credit for knowing a statement is not correct.
26. Advantages and Limitations of MultipleChoice Items (cont)
Multiple-choice items have a greater reliability
than true-false
Multiple-choice items measure a single idea
while matching exercises require a series of
related ideas
Multiple-choice items are usually free of
response sets
Incorrect answers in multiple-choice items can
usually allow for diagnosis of errors and
misunderstandings that need correction
27. Disadvantages
Limited to learning outcomes at the verbal level
Requires selection of the correct answer and therefore
it does not measure problem solving skills in math and
science or the ability to organize and present ideas
It is difficult to find a sufficient number of reasonable
alternatives or distracters (especially at the primary
level)
