  1. Hi Noah,
    Writing assessments is difficult, I agree. How do you determine whether your questions are good or not?

  2. When i prepare a quiz, I always have the teaching materials in front of me, so that i know that the students will for sure be taught the answer to the question in the lesson. I also write the question making sure that the answer is neither common knowledge nor intuitive. And the final decider of the quality of my questions is Mr. Bayer, who reviews all my work prior to handing it to students.
