Description
Have your students ever told you your exams didn't test what they expected, seemed unfair, or were too hard? Have you had challenges with designing exams for online courses? Exams and quizzes can serve an important role in assessing student learning, however, many tests are unclear, not aligned with course learning objectives, or challenging to conduct online. In this workshop we will examine issues with current testing practices and offer tips and strategies for more successful results.
