, Introduction
Running a classroom successfully can be challenging and most certainly requires an extensive skill set.
Creating test items to assess candidates’ knowledge about classroom management concepts is also
challenging. One thing that makes the task difficult is that there is often no definitive “right answer” for
questions about classroom management once you move beyond initial procedural recommendations. The
items in this test bank were written with this truism in mind. Each item relates directly to material covered
in the core text, and many DO have answers that will be consistently clear-cut. However, because of the
individualized nature of classroom management decisions, course instructors must carefully weigh not
only which items to utilize on tests but also what answers to accept from candidates.
M
The items in the test bank reflect a broad range of cognitive levels. Many items assess candidates’
knowledge of basic concepts in classroom management, particularly relevant terminology and procedural
guidelines; others ask students to apply their new knowledge in novel situations. Some questions require
ED
candidates to analyze situations in which management decisions are being made; still others ask the
candidate to synthesize information as they make recommendations with regard to specific management
topics. A few questions ask candidates to evaluate the decisions of others and make judgments about the
CO
appropriateness and/or effectiveness of each choice. Higher-order questions are indicted by an asterisk.
Some questions are lengthy and as instructors are creating tests, they should ensure that students will have
enough time to read each item thoroughly.
NN
The items included in this test bank are of both objective and constructed-response formats. Of particular
note are the suggested instructions for having candidates complete true-false items; to reduce the guess
factor associated with traditional T/F questions, instructions for the T/F questions in each chapter ask
students to rewrite any false statements to make them true, thus allowing them to demonstrate their
OI
understanding of the inaccuracies in the original item stem.
