test: way to piss me off

[azurelunatic]

When I take a test, I want to know every question I got wrong, what my mistaken answer was, and what the correct answer was.

This will enable me to learn from the test, versus fear the test.


I don't know of any tests recently that have pissed me off like so, but I figured I'd share.

That's one of the absolutely awesome things my cool AJ prof, Crawford, does for us. After each quiz and exam, there's an immediate review and giving of correct answers, so you'll be prepared next time.

Many of the DeVry professors do the same thing.

I had one professor once who had made up a test with one of those test generator software things, the ones that scramble the question order and the multiple choice answer order. He'd done up two versions, A and B. He'd neglected to save a copy of version A, so all of us who'd taken that version did not get feedback on our actual learning. Guess who'd taken that version?

I'm glad that my outburst of fury merely took the form of folding up the scan-tron sheet into a paper airplane and lobbing it at the teacher.
