Questions and Answers

In a group project where students create a quiz about a 1970s or 1980s artist, what is the primary purpose of requiring each question to be accompanied by a paragraph of at least ten sentences?

  • To provide an opportunity for students to practice creative writing skills unrelated to the artist's music or history.
  • To make the quiz more challenging and time-consuming for other students to complete.
  • To discourage superficial questions and encourage research-backed, detailed justifications for the questions, showcasing a deeper understanding of the artist. (correct)
  • To ensure students can meet a minimum word count requirement, thus fulfilling the assignment criteria.

A student is creating a multiple-choice question for their group's quiz. Which approach would best ensure that their question effectively assesses understanding of the chosen artist?

  • Designing a question that explores a commonly held misconception about the artist, with distractors representing alternative interpretations. (correct)
  • Developing a question with a clearly correct answer and several obviously incorrect distractors.

A group is struggling to create a cohesive quiz about their chosen artist. To improve the quiz's overall quality and flow, what should each student focus on when creating their two questions?

  • Concentrating on the artist's most popular songs and albums, as these are most familiar to everyone.
  • Adhering strictly to information found on the artist's official website, ignoring other sources.
  • Ensuring their questions cover different aspects of the artist's career, avoiding overlap and creating a comprehensive overview. (correct)
