| Feedback from students: on the tests |
with only negative comments.. |
| Record no: | 8 | | Negative: | True |
| So of the questions were not straight forward example Question 16 |
| Record no: | 279 | | Negative: | True |
| Test B |
| 11 questions, seems just a bit too short. |
| -> The interruption in flow may not be |
| entirly benificial |
| Test A : some of the questions were the same |
| as in test B |
| Q.11: surely this depends in the impmnt of |
| IntStack. |
| |
| Opinions |
| Personal preference, I would have taken |
| a written examination. |
| |
| The questions in these multiple |
| choice tests are sometimes confusing |
| and unlike a traditional exam it |
| is not possible to express oneself and hope to |
| obtain marks. |
| |
| Multiple choice tests tend to test very |
| specific information and no a more |
| general knowledge. With these multiple choice |
| tests there can never be a question such |
| as "how would you code..." , and |
| therefore I feel it is difficult to |
| assess knowledge in this subject |
| The fact that the same questions appear |
| in different exams, and you do not get |
| the marks for individual questions means that |
| it is possible to continualy get questions |
| wrong and not know it |
