In the Short-Answer Question (SAQ) format… Questions can be answered in just a few words
or phrases Use constructed responses with a single focus Space is allocated on the answer page indicating
the expected length and complexity of the answers
Have a comprehensive model answer key to ensure reliable scoring
Also common when using the Short-Answer Question (SAQ) format…
Questions may be prefaced with a vignette or scenario in order to make the question more clinically based.
Questions may consist of many sub-questions to build on common content areas.
Compared to Multiple-Choice: Easier to develop than multiple-choice questions Is not a ‘multiple-guess’ / selected response format
Compared to Essays: Much easier to score than short or long essay questions Task more clearly defined Examinees answer more concisely Inter-rater agreement higher Do not need two scorers
Usually more difficult to develop than short-essay or long-essay questions
Harder to mark than multiple-choice questions
Difficult to make answer keys totally comprehensive
Often only knowledge/comprehension questions rather than critical thinking or problem solving
Good SAQ questions clearly, consistently and fairly assess what we want to assess in an efficient and effective manner.
How do we maximize: Validity? Reliability? Practicality / Feasibility?
Create questions that: Can be answered realistically in a few words or
phrases – avoid long essays. Have single focus per question / sub-question As much as possible, each sub-question should be
independent from the rest
Restrict the length of the answer by using precise wording to define the task Ask direct questions: “What is . . . ” Use actions verbs such as: “List”, “Name” Do not use words like “Discuss”, “Describe”,
“Summarize” or “Outline” unless you limit the length of the answer or specify a limiting restriction such as “Describe THREE specific methods of …”
When choosing a topic area: Base choice on objective/established content
area preferably based on an examination BLUEPRINT.
True/False or Matching Questions have low reliability and should be avoided
When reviewing the questions: Look at the difficulty level
Is the content relevant to the purpose of the
overall examination?
Provide visual guidelines to indicate how long an answer is expected
Provide a guideline to indicate the number of marks and/or importance of the question and answer
Length of vignettes should be proportional to the value of the question.
Do not provide cues in text. Should be of appropriate difficulty and a
relatively plausible situation.
Focused Not tricky Challenging but fair Clear outline of expectations: Content expected Length of answer Mark allocation Not ambiguous
Simple, detailed marking scheme and model answers Little subjectivity required by marker / Objective Defensible / Fair
1. Does the question target the learning objectives to be evaluated?
2. Will students know exactly what is being asked of them?
3. Does the question allow you to give consistent marks?
