Cathy Moore on multiple choice quizzes

One of the things I love about this online community is how previously undiscovered gems are regularly brought to light by familiar gems. Janet Clarey's recent addition to her serious on women in the edublogosphere introduced me to Cathy Moore. I had not encountered her before, but my first taste was this post on multiple choice quizzes.

Cleverly written, Cathy's post takes a minimalist approach to make a well struck point about the use and misuse of this assessment favourite. Prepare to recognise most of the multiple choice questions you have answered in your life... and several you have set!
