This is a really great checklist - I'm wondering if anyone can explain the reason for avoiding True/False questions - I've not heard that before. Thanks!

I think probably just because they can be so easy and are usually just a fallback for when people don't want to take the time to craft meaningful choices.

- CArthrob10 years agoCommunity MemberI wondered about that, too. I was thinking of using T/F re: misconceptions or things I find people often do incorrectly. The answer would be False, followed by an explanation. What do you think of that usage? I was told by an M.Ed colleague to keep T/F answers to True, because it reinforces the correct thought or behaviour.
- NicoleLegault110 years agoCommunity MemberInteresting point about making all the True/False answers yes to reinforce... I've not heard that but if you are using True/False I would recommend to mix them up so that learners can't pinpoint that they're always True. Just my two cents :)
