Design Exams in Science Courses That Truly Measure Learning Outcomes

Description

The main objective of this presentation is to share and demonstrate how online instructors can design and transform exams in science courses from the paper-pencil format to online assessments. In Engineering as in many other math and science disciplines, most exams need to assess students' mastery of knowledge and skills with calculation as well as problem solving, so exams made of mostly multiple-choice questions are not effective to  measure learning outcomes.

The presenter will showcase how high-stake exams in science courses such as engineering courses can and should be designed to truly measure course and unit-level learning outcomes by using sets of calculations and question banks to ensure academic integrity.
