As bedside neonatal therapists, we long ago (like many of you) saw problems with oral feeding practice in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). For the past decade we have been working toward a solution. This is the result of that work.You might say we're on a mission - a mission driven by the infants we serve.

Infant-Driven Feeding® (IDF) provides education related to oral feeding practice for neonatal caregivers worldwide. IDF was born out of the passion to serve infants and families in the NICU as well as the professionals who support them. We believe that transitioning to oral feeding should be a safe, pleasurable, and nurturing experience for each infant and family. And we have come to understand that education, as with so many things, is the key.

Cite this guide: Brame, C. (2013) Writing good multiple choice test questions. Retrieved [todaysdate] from https://cft.vanderbilt.edu/guides-sub-pages/writing-good-multiple-choice-test-questions/.

Multiple choice test questions, also known as items, can be an effective and efficient way to assess learning outcomes. Multiple choice test items have several potential advantages:

Versatility: Multiple choice test items can be written to assess various levels of learning outcomes, from basic recall to application, analysis, and evaluation. Because students are choosing from a set of potential answers, however, there are obvious limits on what can be tested with multiple choice items. For example, they are not an effective way to test students' ability to organize thoughts or articulate explanations or creative ideas.

Reliability: Reliability is defined as the degree to which a test consistently measures a learning outcome. Multiple choice test items are less susceptible to guessing than true/false questions, making them a more reliable means of assessment. The reliability is enhanced when the number of MC items focused on a single learning objective is increased. In addition, the objective scoring associated with multiple choice test items frees them from problems with scorer inconsistency that can plague scoring of essay questions.

Validity: Validity is the degree to which a test measures the learning outcomes it purports to measure. Because students can typically answer a multiple choice item much more quickly than an essay question, tests based on multiple choice items can typically focus on a relatively broad representation of course material, thus increasing the validity of the assessment.

The key to taking advantage of these strengths, however, is construction of good multiple choice items.

A multiple choice item consists of a problem, known as the stem, and a list of suggested solutions, known as alternatives. The alternatives consist of one correct or best alternative, which is the answer, and incorrect or inferior alternatives, known as distractors.

Constructing an Effective Stem

1. The stem should be meaningful by itself and should present a definite problem. A stem that presents a definite problem allows a focus on the learning outcome. A stem that does not present a clear problem, however, may test students' ability to draw inferences from vague descriptions rather serving as a more direct test of students' achievement of the learning outcome.

2. The stem should not contain irrelevant material, which can decrease the reliability and the validity of the test scores (Haldyna and Downing 1989).

3. The stem should be negatively stated only when significant learning outcomes require it. Students often have difficulty understanding items with negative phrasing (Rodriguez 1997). If a significant learning outcome requires negative phrasing, such as identification of dangerous laboratory or clinical practices, the negative element should be emphasized with italics or capitalization.

4. The stem should be a question or a partial sentence. A question stem is preferable because it allows the student to focus on answering the question rather than holding the partial sentence in working memory and sequentially completing it with each alternative (Statman 1988). The cognitive load is increased when the stem is constructed with an initial or interior blank, so this construction should be avoided.

Constructing Effective Alternatives

1. All alternatives should be plausible. The function of the incorrect alternatives is to serve as distractors,which should be selected by students who did not achieve the learning outcome but ignored by students who did achieve the learning outcome. Alternatives that are implausible don't serve as functional distractors and thus should not be used. Common student errors provide the best source of distractors.

2. Alternatives should be stated clearly and concisely. Items that are excessively wordy assess students' reading ability rather than their attainment of the learning objective

3. Alternatives should be mutually exclusive. Alternatives with overlapping content may be considered "trick" items by test-takers, excessive use of which can erode trust and respect for the testing process.

4. Alternatives should be homogenous in content. Alternatives that are heterogeneous in content can provide cues to student about the correct answer.

5. Alternatives should be free from clues about which response is correct. Sophisticated test-takers are alert to inadvertent clues to the correct answer, such differences in grammar, length, formatting, and language choice in the alternatives. It's therefore important that alternatives

have grammar consistent with the stem.

are parallel in form.

are similar in length.

use similar language (e.g., all unlike textbook language or all like textbook language).

6. The alternatives "all of the above" and "none of the above" should not be used. When "all of the above" is used as an answer, test-takers who can identify more than one alternative as correct can select the correct answer even if unsure about other alternative(s). When "none of the above" is used as an alternative, test-takers who can eliminate a single option can thereby eliminate a second option. In either case, students can use partial knowledge to arrive at a correct answer.

7. The alternatives should be presented in a logical order (e.g., alphabetical or numerical) to avoid a bias toward certain positions.

8. The number of alternatives can vary among items as long as all alternatives are plausible. Plausible alternatives serve as functional distractors, which are those chosen by students that have not achieved the objective but ignored by students that have achieved the objective. There is little difference in difficulty, discrimination, and test score reliability among items containing two, three, and four distractors.

Additional Guidelines

1. Avoid complex multiple choice items , in which some or all of the alternatives consist of different combinations of options. As with "all of the above" answers, a sophisticated test-taker can use partial knowledge to achieve a correct answer.

2. Keep the specific content of items independent of one another. Savvy test-takers can use information in one question to answer another question, reducing the validity of the test.

Considerations for Writing Multiple Choice Items that Test Higher-order Thinking

When writing multiple choice items to test higher-order thinking, design questions that focus on higher levels of cognition as defined by Bloom's taxonomy. A stem that presents a problem that requires application of course principles, analysis of a problem, or evaluation of alternatives is focused on higher-order thinking and thus tests students' ability to do such thinking. In constructing multiple choice items to test higher order thinking, it can also be helpful to design problems that require multilogical thinking, where multilogical thinking is defined as "thinking that requires knowledge of more than one fact to logically and systematically apply concepts to a ...problem" (Morrison and Free, 2001, page 20). Finally, designing alternatives that require a high level of discrimination can also contribute to multiple choice items that test higher-order thinking.

OUR LEARNING METHODOLOGY

Increase Confidence and Competence

"Working with Practice isn't like work at all. They make everything so easy. It was one of the smoothest implementations I've ever had in my organization. It's not a vendor-buyer relationship at Practice. It's a partnership."

"Practice is not only my favorite evaluation tool in my courses, but also the easiest, and most enlightening assignment to grade. It gave me, the instructor, insight into student learning. I have changed my approach to the students based on their feedback about the Practice assignment, and I have improved as an educator."

"Practice provides an excellent opportunity for my students to crystalize and review concepts we have gone over in class in a way that requires them to look at messy facts and decide what advice makes sense. It provides an effective way to develop skills that we don't always do in class."

"Compared to the former design of assignments where I used to spend anywhere between 12-15 minutes per student, using Practice provides a huge improvement in streamlining and simplifying the grading process."

About Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives are statements that describe the specific knowledge, skills, or abilities students will be able to demonstrate in the real world as a result of completing a lesson. Learning objectives should not be assignment-specific, however, an assignment should allow students to demonstrate they have achieved the lesson objective(s). All of the learning objectives should support the course outcomes.

Examples of Learning Objectives

Describe individual, behavioral, and social factors positively influencing health in the Blue Zones.

Calculate the median of a set of values using Excel.

Create a needs analysis using Gilbert's Performance Matrix.

Revise a company operations manual to reduce energy consumption.

Have you "Flipped your classroom" yet? The flipped classroom is a useful technique that has moved lectures out of the class, and onto digital media. In doing so, teachers can drastically increase interaction time with their students. It also creates two unique learning environments instead of just one, and opens up the opportunity for students to ask questions, solve problems, and use technology in a meaningful way.

A number of tools are available that can be used to record lectures, including YouTube, Edmodo, Schoology, and Moodle. No matter what tool you're using, recording and uploading lectures, then hosting them for years to come has never been easier.

The first tool is Panopto. It is one of the most widely used class capturing tools, used in many K-12 classrooms and universities. To use this, you'll need a Panopto recorder installed on your classroom computer. With it you can easily record a class lecture, yourself, your PowerPoint presentations, and your screens. These recordings can then be uploaded to Canvas, and students can review these lectures later anytime they want.

If you are a teacher and you are using Panopto, you don't have to worry about uploading your lectures because it is integrated to a Course Management System, Canvas. Before start recording, you can choose to add archive to your course folder, and when you are finished with recording it will automatically be added to your course folder. It also allows you to send a live feed of your lecture recordings to your students.

Panopto is as useful for students as it is for teachers. As a student, you can search any lecture using related keywords. You can also take your own notes in a better way because you have the option to pause the lecture anytime. In this way you can understand and concentrate on the lecture more easily while working at your own pace.

Tegrity is another great tool that is used for flipping the class. It records each and every activity that is performed on a teacher's computer. Audio of the teacher can also be added by simply adding a microphone to the computer. If you add a web-cam, and a tablet you would be able to record the video of the teacher and his writing actions as well. Tegrity is also integrated with a Course Management System, Angel, so after completion of lecture recording, these are uploaded automatically for the students.
