[quote=Anonymous]I can't stand when teachers blindly rely on assessments created by a publisher or a company that makes an app. The people who write questions for those companies are often far removed from a classroom. The wording of questions and answer choices is almost always confusing and just plain bad. I'm a professor and have never used the instructional materials or test questions provided by textbook publishers or software/apps. They are just so terrible. I don't understand why teachers can't come up with their own assessments that reflect how they actually taught the material. It's a lot of work the first time, but then you can make slight modifications and re-use for years afterward. Unless they are required to exclusively use adaptive assessments now? Which is another dumb idea that probably originated from someone who doesn't actually teach.[/quote]
