Discussion
• Please give some reflection on your own test construction in your teaching.
• What principles do you base your tests on?• Do you write your own test questions or do you
use outside sources? If so, what are the criteria for selection?

Which steps should be taken in writing multiple choice completion items?
![Page 13: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
The following steps should be taken in writing multiple choice completion items:
Select the words to be tested. Get the right kind of sentence to put each word in Choose several wrong words to put the right word
with Finally, prepare clear and simple instructions.
![Page 14: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
- Where can we select the words?- How can we choose the question types?
![Page 15: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
I. Multiple-choice completion
Vocabulary Choice- From other sources like newspapers, magazines, and
textbooks from other reference materials - Only use content words (nouns, verbs, adjectives, and
adverbs) - Function words (articles, determiners, prepositions,
conjunctions, pronouns, auxiliary verbs) appear in grammar tests.
When using words not found in your classroom textbook, be careful of bias.
![Page 16: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Context Preparation- More than one sentence is needed to help clarify
meaning. E.g.: - "I want to paint, too!” - "All right. Use that _________ over there!' A. brush B. pencil C. broom D. spoon- Find a passage (on your students' level) in which
the word appears. - Avoid contexts that are too difficult.
![Page 17: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What should you avoid when creating distractors?
![Page 18: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Distractor Preparation There are two common ways to choose
distractors. - Create your own distractors.- Use students’ errors as distractors Teachers who create their own distractors should
follow certain guidelines:
![Page 19: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Distractor Preparation
1. Make sure the distractors are the same form of word as the correct answer.
E.g.: (A poor example)
She had to help the ______ old man up the stairs.
A. weak B. slowly C. try D. wisdom
![Page 20: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Distractor Preparation
2. ALSO be sure you don't give away the right answer through grammatical cues.
E.g: She needs to get up earlier so she's buying an ______ clock.
A. time B. alarm C. watch D. bell
![Page 21: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Distractor Preparation
3. Multiple-choice items for any one question should be about the same level of difficulty, and ideally, the sentence context should not be difficult for students to read.
E.g.: They needed lots of training to operate such _______ equipment.
A: easy B. sophisticated C. blue D. wise
![Page 22: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Distractor Preparation
4. Also be sure not to include more than one correct answer.
E.g.: She sent the _______ yesterday.
A. letter B. gift C. food D. books
![Page 23: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Instruction Preparation - The instructions for your test should be brief .
E.g: + "Circle the letter of the right answers"
+ "Circle the letter of the word that best completes each sentence.
- Instructions can be made clearer by one or two examples.
![Page 24: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Multiple-choice completion
Multiple-choice cloze Test - Cloze tests are made from stories or essays by
deleting words at regular intervals. - Usually use content words (like school or run)
and function words (such as the or in) are deleted.
- Cloze tests provide more context – often more than one paragraph.
![Page 25: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Which steps should be taken in designing Word formation?
![Page 27: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Word formation
Here are the steps:
(1) List the prefixes and suffixes that you have taught to your students. Then match these with content words that they have studied (including even their passive vocabulary).
(2) Prepare sentences that clarify the meaning of these words.
(3) Then write your instructions and examples.
![Page 28: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Word formation
1. Adding a prefix or suffix
E.g: a) My teach_____ is very helpful.
b) Did she teach______ you anything?
c) That was a care ________ answer. So sometimes, more context is needed to
clarify which word we mean:
E.g.: Yesterday he got on the wrong bus. So today he was care _____ to find the right one.
![Page 29: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Word formation
2. Stem-first procedure:
E.g: She has a __________ new dress.(BEAUTY)
An advantage of this type is that many words need spelling changes when suffixes are added.
![Page 30: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

A. asked B. needed C. told D. wanted
e. Choose the odd one out.
A. pleased B. nervous C. study D. interesting

2. First, supply a word with a prefix or suffix for each blank in the following sentences. Then prepare word completion items.
Example: It was a most ________ mistake. (Answer: deplorable/regrettable/ inexcusable, etc.) (It was a most deplor ________ mistake)1. When you write your check, make it ______ to my sister. (____known)2. Please wipe your __________ hands on that cloth. (dirt__ / __clean)3. The police arrested him for __________ the riot. (caus_______ / lead _______ )4.

Preparing multiple-choice completion grammar items follows about the same procedure as that described in the previous part for writing multiple-choice completion vocabulary items:
(1) Choose the grammar points that you need to test;
(2) prepare the right kind of sentence context (or stem) for the grammar structure;
(3) select three logical distractors;(4) prepare clear, simple instruction.

Grammar Choice - What structures you have taught since the last
test. - How to give different "weight" to various
grammar points. - How many of each grammar type to include.

Distractor Preparation
- Avoid using too obvious items!
E.g.: _______ the ones who know the answers.
A. They are B. There C. They're D. Their
- Avoid items that test divided usage, or items that only test different levels of formality.
E.g.: You can get it from the lady _______ he sold it to.
A. which B. who C. whom D. why

The Option Form
The easiest simple-completion items are like multiple-choice questions with only two options.
E.g.: Direction: Complete the following sentences with "do" or "make."
1. He ___________ a lot of money last year.
2. I always _________ my best.
E.g.: 1.The women _____ for the tragedy. (was crying, cry)
2. The magician performed some _______ tricks. (astonishing, astonished)

The Option Form
Often there are three or four choices listed, and at times even more. For example, here is a nine-option completion item from an English test. Students choose the best question word from among the following: who, whom, where, what, when, why, how many, how much, how.
E.g.:
1) ________ did the clock stop running? - At twelve o'clock.
2) __________ were you late? - We ran out of gas.

The Inflection Form
Testing the mastery of inflections provides for a productive response. These vary from simple comparatives to verb tense questions:
E.g.:
1) He's the __________ (tall) person in the class.
2) They ___________ (be) in Colorado last week.
Sentence Completion
![Page 44: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The Inflection Form- Be careful about context as it may affect students’
responses. This problem can be solved by giving part of the verb or adding more context.
E.g.: He ________ (sing) a song
He is ___ing (sing). (or) He ___ singing now. (Add one word.)or "What's Tom doing now?" "Oh, he _______ (sing)."

The Inflection Form
- Another technique is to use a separate blank for each word in the verb phrase.
E.g.: He _____ _____ (sing) now.
Sentence Completion

The Free-Response Form- Sometimes a few simple terms can be used, if
everybody in the class knows what they mean.
Example: Add a question tag to these sentences:
1) Hamlet was indecisive, __________?

The steps in preparing a cloze test are simple:
(1) Select an appropriate passage (e.g., from the reading material in your English class);
(2) Decide on the words and number of words to take out;
(3) Write the instructions and prepare an example.

There are a few things to avoid:
- Usually we ignore a passage that is full of proper nouns, numbers, and technical words.
- We usually do not pick an article containing a lot of quoted material.
- Leaving the first sentence or two and the last one intact as they are will help students understand the overall meaning.

Question Techniques for Beginners
True-false and matching– True-false questions taken from the text.– Matching here means students matching material
in the passage with material in the question. – A "guessing correction" may be used!
![Page 55: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Example: Among the American Negroes in the southern states,
work songs played an integral part in fashioning a folk music which was later to become jazz. These had been part of the West African's musical experience at home. And now they were transported to a new environment. In America they were found to be of no little importance to the slaves' output of work.
• True or False:1) Jazz is related to the work songs of American blacks. 2) Work songs were not helpful in getting more work done. • Read the passage and choose the best answer:1) “What played an integral part in fashioning folk music?” A. work songs B. jazz C. a new environment D. Americans

Question Techniques for More Advanced Students
Standard Multiple-Choice: - supposedly one of the best! Use a variety of types of questions on your
reading test.– Paraphrase – Synthesis – Inference
![Page 57: TAÄP HUAÁN XAÂY DÖÏNG MA TRAÄN VAØ BIEÂN SOAÏN ÑEÀ KIEÅM TRA](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568136ec550346895d9e80d6/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Question Techniques for More Advanced Students
Things to remember: (1) Questions should not ask for words or
phrases exactly as they appear in the passage.
(2) Avoid illogical distractors. (3) They shouldn't be written in such a way that
they can be answered from general knowledge.

Limited response
1. Sentence combining: a common prewriting task, takes many forms. We will look at just two of them: combining by adding a connective and combining by putting one sentence inside the other.
E.g.:1) He likes ice cream but he won't eat any.2) She didn't feel well today so she didn't go to work.3) Some people come late. They will not get good seats.
(that)(Answer: People that come late will not get good seats.)

Limited response
2. Sentence expansion is another kind of pre-writing evaluation. This can involve simply adding words such as adjectives and adverbs. Or it can require adding phrases and clauses.
E.g.: 1) The (________) man hurried (_________) to the
(____________) horse.(Answer: The old man hurried out to the frightened horse.)2) His decision (_________) surprised everyone (___________).(Answer: His decision to quit his job surprised everyone that
knew him.)

Limited response
3. Sentence reduction, still another procedure used in evaluating pre-writing proficiency, often provides a cue word (as in the following examples) to show how to begin the new phrase:
E.g: 1) He told us about a man who had a wooden leg. (with)
(Answer: He told us about a man with a wooden leg.) 2) Her father, who is certainly the stingiest man I
know, wouldn't let us borrow his car. (one word) (Answer: Her stingy father wouldn't let us borrow his
car.)

Guided writing
1. Multiple-choice sentences:E.g: Find the part of the sentence where the mistake occurs 1) We sent for a repairman to take a look at A B Cthe telephone. In the office where I work. D2) The Doctor told the young soldier to drive A B Csouth through the valley for supplies at the nearest city. D

Guided writing
2. Unrelated sentence.E.g: Pick out the sentence that does not relate to coherence
of the selection: (1) Some people think they have an answer to the
troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. (2) Their answer is the bicycle, or "bike." (3) In a great many cities, hundreds of people now ride bicycles to work every day. (4) Some work with their hands while others depend mostly on their brains while working. (5) A group of New York bike riders claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be less dirty air in the city from car engines.

Guided writing
3. Sentence reorderingE.g: Put the sentences back into their original order (1) So on April 18,1775, he started across the Charles River,
where he planned to wait for a signal from a friend. (2) The American Revolution was a citizens' revolution in which ordinary men took a large part. (3) He was living in Boston when British troops arrived to keep people under control. (4) When he saw the lights, he jumped on his horse and rode through the countryside warning the people that they must fight at daybreak. (5) One such man was Paul Revere, a silver worker. (6) Like others, Revere thought the British troops would move from Boston against the villagers.(7) That night after reaching the other side, Revere saw hi friend's lantern signals.

Becky / mother / take / we / shop / Monday night / I find / pretty blue / not expensive. / I start / pay / wallet / gone /I / borrow / money / Becky / mother / I / certainly / upset
The student paragraph might read: I bought a new white swimsuit, and then I forgot to bring
it. I was really mad. But Becky's mother took us shopping Monday night, and I found a pretty blue one. It was not very expensive. I started to pay for it, and my wallet was gone! I borrowed some money from Becky's mother, but I was certainly upset.

Building from a Paragraph Outline
E.g.: Write a paragraph of about seventy-five words describing a store or business that you know very well. Base your paragraph on answers to the following questions:
1. What is it called?2. When did it start to do business?3. How many employees does it have?4. What do the employees have to do?5. Does it have a lot of customers/clients? Why (not)?6. Why do you choose to go there rather than somewhere else?7. Is it a good example of what such a store business should be?Students’ writing can be started like this: In my neighborhood there is a . . .

Free Writing
- We have to provide clear and rather detailed guidelines for writing-even for advanced students.
- Use pictures or simple charts, tables, or diagrams to help students and teachers in controlling the contents of the writing.
- Another way to control content is to provide a situation that determines what students are to write about.
