Accompanying Notes for Year 12 Economics Formative Online Assessments.
These assessments are intended to be used as a form of reflective learning as well as preparing students for online assessment in general.
There are no traditional multiple choice questions in these assessments.
Each question is worth one mark unless stated otherwise.
Students cannot move to previous questions during the assessment but are free to do so during the review process.
Students must give an answer for a question to move forward.
When students finish the assessment they can press the review button which will allow them to see their answer for each question as well as the accepted correct answer.
They can then press the explain button which shows them an explanation of the concept(s) tested.
Some questions are divided into sequences and students can only move on to the next part of the sequence if they answer the previous part correctly. An incorrect answer will move them on to the next question following the sequence. This will of course affect their final score.
Each sequence, when answered correctly, can be viewed as a paragraph answer to the question.
When reviewing the assessment students will be shown which question(s) from a sequence they didn’t answer. (This can give the assessor an idea where the student’s shortcomings are.)
