, Overview of the Test Bank
Developing the Curriculum 9th ed. provides for instructors a test bank consisting
of fifteen multiple-choice questions and five essay questions for each of the thirteen
chapters of this book. These test questions are designed to assist instructors in
highlighting salient features of each chapter.
There is one correct answer for each multiple-choice question. The answers may
be found in the Answer Key which is included with these ancillary materials. Our
questions are not meant to limit instructors’ desires to add additional items to each test or
to substitute items for any of those in the test bank.
The co-authors believe that it is good instructional practice to include both
multiple-choice and essay questions on a single test. Of course, instructors may also wish
to create additional tests during the course of instruction. They can also consolidate
chapter tests into mid-term and/or final examinations for the course.
