One of my courses is entitled "Assessments" ... all about writing exams. I just wrote the midterm and it was a complete example of how NOT to write an exam. Everything my instructor told us not to do on multiple choice exams ... she did.

I get very tired of post-secondary education sometimes.

On a happy note, I got a very energetic 49 km ride in today!!

Multiple choice doesn't work in philosophy anyway. The day I administer a scantron test is the day that I quit to go sell insurance or something. Reading essay tests and papers is 90% headache to be sure, but there's always that tenth paper that has something interesting to say. If I did Scantron tests, I'd miss that. Sometimes your students have a thing or two to teach you.

I've noticed that education departments are full of people that aren't very good educators.
