Multiple Choice Questions can be a great tool to increase student interactivity with module materials, concept check, and provide a form of assessment. It is somewhat easy to develop simple questions focused on knowledge recall, but it is less easy to develop questions which probe students higher order thinking skills such as the ability to evaluate or judge. In this session you will explore how to design MCQs which are specifically targeted at demonstrating higher order skills as identified in Bloom’s taxonomy.
