6. From your readings, respond to the reflective question below. Write your answer in one to two
paragraphs (In at least 100 words).(10pts)
“As a teacher to be, which selected response test format do you prefer when giving written test to
your students? Why? Briefly discuss your answer”.
As teacher to be I would pick the fill in the blanks type test format. Why? Because if you
were to let them take that kind of test yiu are able to identify their acquired knowledge rather to
choose the multiple choice which provides the answer but has the 70 % chance that your student
could pick the answer luckily. In difference with the fill in the blanks they are able to use their
motor skills to think about the exact answer to that exact question. The advantage of fill the
blanks is that they don’t have the choices to pick in so the answering part is like a
extemporaneous speech tht your have to answer briefly with out some thing to rely on.
