Abstract

Increasing enrollments and adoption of online resources have encouraged the use of multiple choice questions as a means of providing scalable assessment.

We propose the use of multiple-answer multiple choice questions in situations where formative feedback is desired and present evidence that these questions are well suited for that role.
