Part I
- What are the three parts of a multiple-choice question?
- What purpose does each of these three parts serve?
- What types of quantitative data analysis could be employed to evaluate multiple-choice responses?

- What can be implemented to increase a quantitative item’s discrimination and difficulty indices?
- What are the advantages and limitations of matching items when compared to other types of items?
Part II
- Develop two multiple-choice questions and two matching items to quantitatively assess some particular content taught in a classroom.
- Develop two quantitative survey questions with Likert scale responses concerning some particular area of research interest.
- Describe what steps you would employ to ensure the four questions would measure what you intended to measure.
- Develop a compelling argument to support the use of true-false items as a fair method to quantitatively assess knowledge-level information.
