How can I create effective assessment questions?

To create effective assessment questions, start by defining your learning objectives. What do you want to assess?

I want to assess students' understanding of key concepts in biology.

Great! You can use a mix of question types, like multiple-choice, short answer, and essay questions to gauge understanding.

Can you give me an example of a multiple-choice question?

Sure! An example could be: 'Which organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell? A) Nucleus B) Mitochondria C) Ribosome D) Golgi apparatus'.

That’s helpful! How do I ensure the questions are clear and unbiased?

To ensure clarity, use simple language and avoid jargon. For bias, review questions to ensure they are culturally neutral and fair.
