ASSESSMENT PREPARATION · Workflow idea

Build a useful question set from the material learners are studying.

Use a selected course document or set of notes to prepare open-ended and multiple-choice questions with proposed answers. Keep questions connected to the source material, check that answer choices and explanations are sound, and have an educator review difficulty, fairness, and curriculum fit before using the assessment with learners.

  1. Select the learning material and assessment goal

    Choose an authorized document and clarify the subject, learner level, and skills the assessment should cover.

  2. Prepare open-ended question drafts

    Develop questions that invite explanation, application, or reasoning and include a proposed answer for instructor review.

  3. Prepare multiple-choice question drafts

    Create questions with one intended answer and plausible alternatives, while flagging any choice that may be ambiguous.

  4. Check answers against the source

    Compare proposed answers and explanations with the selected material and identify unsupported or conflicting details.

  5. Approve the assessment before learners see it

    Have an educator review accuracy, fairness, difficulty, and the exact questions and answer key before use or distribution.

The handoff

A set of draft questions, choices, and answers organized for an educator to verify before classroom or course use.

Keep in mind

A question set can misstate source material, have more than one defensible answer, or disadvantage learners through unclear wording. Protect restricted course documents, check each question and answer against its source, review accessibility and difficulty, and require an educator to approve the exact assessment before it is shared or used to evaluate anyone.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose authorized course material

Select current documents the instructor may use and define how updates or withdrawn material are handled.

Set question types and learning goals

Choose the mix of open-ended and multiple-choice questions, the target level, and the skills being assessed.

Protect learner and course information

Limit access to source documents and draft assessments to authorized educators and retain them only as needed.

Assign instructional reviewers

Name who checks source alignment, answer keys, accessibility, and final approval before an assessment is used.
