Learning Opportunities

This workshop focuses on showing teachers how to construct effective multiple-choice and numerical-response questions for high school math. Common issues, errors and misconceptions in item development will be shown, as well as ways to improve the quality of machine-scored items. Hands-on materials and a handbook on item writing will be provided. Participants should bring a copy of a current test that they wish to “polish”, as well as resources to write new machine-scored questions at this workshop. The half-day session will allow participants time to practice the skills described in the session and will explore the concept of blueprinting assessments based on
