FAQ
FAQ
Why are the examples in The Test Writer’s Guide to Crafting Good Questions limited to the topics of emergency response and law?
When I was a firefighter, I geared my books for my “extended family” of emergency responders. Now I’m a paralegal, so I wrote The Test Writer’s Guide to Crafting Good Questions for my old family of emergency responders and my new family of legal professionals. It was my “revenge” for all of the poorly written tests I had to endure in both fields.
Will The Test Writer’s Guide to Crafting Good Questions be useful in other fields?
Absolutely! The principles of writing good test questions are largely universal, regardless of the topic.
