Eugene, I agree with you. The value you put on a question is measured by points earned. At least, that is how students will see it. Good point. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Kenya, I think we have to be careful when we say did they achieve competency and that alone. Can you consider it mastery or is it emerging. . . just some thoughts. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Lindsey, True! Also, can they use the content in a variety of settings. Yes, you want more than memorization if the objectives require more. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Jennifer, You make a great point. Looking at how they use (or don't use) the tools is a type of assessment. Assessment should be a collage of items. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
