Test development

This e-learning is created for teachers to help them improve their skills to develop test and mostly test questions.
It provides the basic knowledge required by everyone involved in the process of developing and accessing different types of tests. This e-learning is focused on questions used in e-learning, so mostly closed questions

Learning goals

After completing this e-learning, you:

• have gained knowledge on how to develop objective and open-ended questions.
• are able to choose suitable test types and question types.
• have gained knowledge on different test types and objective and open-ended questions.
• know how to develop objective and open-ended questions, distractors and answer models.

How to use

Perhaps you say: "I already know enough about developing questions and tests, I do not need an e-learning on test development."
It might be true that you already know a lot about test development(maybe even more then me) because you are a teacher and have a lot of experience with developing tests. If this is the case, than you should jump through the e-learning. This e-learning is not designed for you to do the exercises step by step. It is also very possible to jump back and forth in the e-learning or only do the excercises from the chapters you find interesting. But I would ask you to at least start with the e-learning because I believe everyone can always learn new things.

Literature

This e-learning is based on:

• 2015, Teelen Kennismanagement, Toetskwaliteit in de praktijk: Hoe maak ik goede toetsvragen met gesloten en open vragen?
• 2011, Teelen Kennismanagement, Testdevelopment made practica: How to create good questions and tests.
