Multiple Choice Questions
Multiple choice questions (MCQs) are a useful Learning Resource for students to test their understanding and complete revision.
Questions should be tied to the learning outcomes of the chapter and give answer choices that challenge the student.
- Provide 10 questions per chapter
- Supply a consistent number of possible answers
- Avoid the answers ‘none of the above’ and ‘all of the above’ (the order of answers is automatically randomised)
- Avoid questions that rely on the answer of the previous or next question (the order of questions is automatically randomised)
- If suitable, provide some additional brief feedback or context on why this answer is correct.
These are some examples of the type of questions that can be incuded.
